The Clyfford Still Museum was designed by the leading architectural
practice Allied Works and its founder, Brad Cloepfil. The building
creates space for the voice and artistic vision of American painter
Clyfford Still (1904-1980), housing the vast majority of his
creative output over a sixty-year period. The museum's design is
inspired by the work of Still and by its monumental context: the
site is located at the intersection of prairie and mountains,
within an urban district of major cultural buildings, vacant lots,
historic housing, and new development. The building looks to the
earth as a source of silence and profound connection to the
elemental forces the artist explored through his painting. This
publication presents the vision and realization of the museum from
initial concepts to completion. A rich collection of stories,
artifacts, documents, and conversations trace the evolution of the
building and Allied Works' unique creative process. New essays and
photography examine its significance within contemporary
architectural discourse and the singular experience of the
completed work.
