News and Events
GDCA (Gloria Delson Contemporary Arts gallery in Los Angeles, CA), is pleased to announce my May 2021 Solo Exhibition: Cynthia Ann Swan: "Déjà vu"
"Déjà vu" is a limited retrospective of my work created in three of my earlier collections, Autumn-Winter 2012, Black & White 2013, and Snowflakes 2013. The work has been curated to share four cohesive characteristics: chronology , palette, presentation, and nostalgic reference. The title intends a double meaning, the literal experience of viewing these pieces with the sense of having seen them before, and the figurative reflection of time and memory as emotionally charged moments of repetition.
Experts tell us that memory, stress, and fatigue create the perfect storm for deja vu. No wonder, then, we are all part of this surrealistic collective reflection. The world has just passed through a tumultuous year of fear, loss, and sorrow. In the chaos, anger, and isolation, we have found ourselves grasping for bits of normalcy, the “before times” of memory, before the sickness, before the death, before the disconnection. Have we been here before? Can we go back again? But we can not go “home”, again. All we have is now, and “now... what”?
Exhibition Dates: May 1 - May 31
Feel free to contact my gallery anytime with questions or to arrange for a masked & socially distanced in person appointment during their temporary business hours: Wednesday through Sunday from 12 noon - 5 pm!!

GDCA (Gloria Delson Contemporary Arts gallery in Los Angeles, CA), is pleased to announce our February 2021 Solo Exhibition: Cynthia Ann Swan: "V"
"'V" is the culmination of my 18 years of passionate obsession with all that is Vincent. I have done multiple "deep dives" into his work and his life, and have come to feel a personal, intimate connection to Vincent, the man and the artist. My research has evolved into this reflective retrospective.
"V" strives to invite the viewer to experience Vincent on a deeper level. It references his letters, his thoughts, and the themes of his work as an impassioned celebration." - Cynthia Ann Swan, Kiln Formed Glass Artist
Exhibition Dates: February 7th - April 30th
