Denver’s Clyfford Still Museum is devoted entirely to the abstract expressionist’s art and archives, preserving 3,125 works that represent 93 percent of his lifetime output. It emerged from Still’s will, which directed that his collection go to an American city willing to establish a permanent single-artist museum dedicated to preserving and exhibiting his work. After Patricia Still selected Denver in 2004, the museum opened in 2011 in a purpose-built home with galleries, storage, conservation, and archive spaces. Its holdings span Still’s career and include extensive personal papers and records that illuminate both his life and the wider Abstract Expressionist world.
