Author Description

"... Offers intimate views written by each of his daughters Sandra L. Still Campbell and Diane Still Knox, providing insight into Still's personal life, and recounting how Still's collections came to Denver from the artist's home in Maryland. Clyfford Still Museum Director Dean Sobel chronicles the origins of the new museum and the complex process of securing the collections, creating this museum, and unveiling Still's works. Art historian David Anfam gives a scholarly and critical perspective of Still, made possible by the opening of the museum. Richly illustrated, this... volume includes highlights of the collection--monumental paintings, works on paper, and Still's only sculptures--as well as archival materials"--Jacket, page [2].
