In the past Keckler's work has been featured on BBC America and WNYC Soundcheck and his piece "I am an Opera" was commissioned by Dixon Place. In 2013 The Village Voice named him "Best Downtown Performance Artist." Other awards and residencies: Creative Capital, NYFA Fellow, Franklin Furnace, Yaddo, MacDowell.
