• Two videos he made there, Edward and Me and Kevin and Me, debuted the next year at New York’s Studio Museum in Harlem as part of “Freestyle,” a survey of artists that curator Thelma Golden famously labeled “post-black,” a concept she credited to her ongoing dialogue with Ligon. In 2003, McKenzie returned to the Studio Museum as an artist-in-residence, and in 2004 he staged his first solo exhibition at Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects.

Guggenheim Museum anchored the inaugural Performa biennial, and her 2010 retrospective, “The Artist Is Present,” curated by Klaus Biesenbach, was the Museum of Modern Art’s first blockbuster performance exhibition.
