Description
The story of one of the world's most comprehensive single-artist museums, from conception to realization The Clyfford Still Museum in Denver was created as a home for the vision of American Abstract Expressionist painter Clyfford Still. Though acknowledged as one of the country's most significant artists, his work has long been difficult to access. Opening its doors to the public in 2011, the two-story museum--one of the most comprehensive single-artist museums in the world--houses the vast majority of Still's creative output: 2,400 paintings, drawings, prints and sculptures spanning over 60 years. Designed by the leading architectural practice Allied Works and its founder, Brad Cloepfil, the museum draws inspiration from the work of Still and from its monumental surroundings: an intersection of prairie and mountains within an urban district of major cultural buildings, vacant lots, historic housing and new development. This publication presents the full story of the museum, with stories, artifacts, documents and conversations.
