Clyfford Still Museum
|
In August 2004, the City of Denver announced it had been chosen to receive the artworks contained within the Clyfford Still Estate, created in 1980 upon the death of one of the most important painters of the twentieth century. Still (1904-1980) was among the first generation of Abstract Expressionist artists who developed a new, powerful approach to painting in the years immediately following World War II. This highly sought-after body of work contains over 2,150 artworks representing all periods of the American artist's distinguished career and nearly 90% of the artist's total output.
Removed from public view for over twenty-five years, these works will finally be revealed at the Clyfford Still Museum in Denver, Colorado, planned to open to the public in 2009.
The Clyfford Still Museum is an independent nonprofit organization with its own website at www.clyffordstillmuseum.org.
