Clyfford Still Museum

A museum dedicated to the work of abstract expressionist master Clyfford Still, holding more than 90 percent of his paintings.

Clyfford Still was one of the pioneers of American Abstract Expressionism. He refused most commercial exhibitions during his lifetime and stipulated in his will that his works be donated as a whole to a museum built specifically for him. Denver received about 3,000 of his works. The museum opened in 2011, and its concrete building uses natural daylight to illuminate large fields of color. The exhibitions rotate chronologically. Tickets cost about $10–15, and a combined ticket with the Denver Art Museum across the street is available. Located in the Golden Triangle Museum District, separated from the Art Museum by only a short path.
