"[3] In 2006 her work was included in the Whitney Biennial[4] and her solo exhibition, Ramp Project: Zoe Strauss, was shown at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia.

Strauss typically photographs overlooked (or purposefully avoided) details with a humanist perspective and eye for composure.

[14] Between 2000 and 2011, Strauss's photographic work culminated in a yearly Under I-95 show which took place in a public space beneath an I-95 highway overpass in South Philadelphia.

[1] The exhibit Zoe Strauss: 10 Years was organized by the Philadelphia Museum of Art, where it appeared in 2012, and was also shown at the International Center of Photography, New York City, in 2013/2014.

[18] In this, the Billboard Project was similar to Strauss' annual I-95 exhibition which she describes as an "epic narrative about the beauty and struggle of everyday life".

[20] Her photographs include shuttered buildings, empty parking lots and vacant meeting halls in South Philadelphia.
