In Dublin he was part of the Envoy arts review / McDaid's pub circle of artistic and literary figures that included Patrick Kavanagh, Anthony Cronin and Brendan Behan. In London he was an integral member of the Soho set that included George Barker, Elizabeth Smart, et al., and founded and co-edited, with the poet David Wright, the legendary 'X' magazine which Swift used to champion figurative painters such as Francis Bacon, Alberto Giacometti, Lucian Freud, Frank Auerbach and David Bomberg (whose posthumous papers he unearthed & edited). In Portugal he continued painting while also writing and illustrating books on Portugal and founding Porches Pottery, which revived a dying industry.

During his lifetime Swift only held two solo exhibitions: Dublin in 1952 and Lisbon in 1974. His first exhibition at the Waddington Gallery in 1952 was highly acclaimed. For Swift, however, his art seems to have been a very personal and private matter. For most of his career he showed little interest in exhibiting his work. By the time of his death in 1983 many assumed that he had long since stopped painting. In 1993 the Irish Museum of Modern Art (IMMA) held a retrospective of Swift's work. The exhibition received critical acclaim, with fellow artists such as Derek Hill declaring him to be "probably the most formidable Irish artist of this century."
