1959: THE ALBRIGHT-KNOX ART GALLERY
EXHIBITION RECREATED
Clifford Still Museum
1250 Bannock Street - Denver
February 14-June 15, 2014
In the fall of 1959, Clyfford Still was the subject of a major one-person exhibition at the Albright Art Gallery (now the Albright-Knox Art Gallery) in Buffalo, New York. This exhibition was among the largest of his career and the first exhibition after Still effectively broke ties with the art world in 1951.
1959 will include selections from the original exhibition in Buffalo (works now in the Clyfford Still Museum collection) along with extensive materials from the Museum's archives. Exhibition enhancements, in the Boettcher Foundation Education Gallery, will include an audio recording of Still reading his introduction to the 1959 exhibition catalogue and an interactive that allows visitors to virtually visit the original Buffalo installation.
1959 is presented in conjunction with Modern Masters at the Denver Art Museum. Members and visitors can enjoy both Modern Masters at the DAM and 1959 at CSM with a special ticket that provides unique access to both museums. CSM members must purchase their tickets for the joint exhibition from CSM.
