Most, if not ALL these “talking heads” are talking BS. They are talking around his message. . . being PC. This artist was not just a colorist or thinking of using jagged edges as some kind of stupid design motif. His personality tells it all . . . he was “effin” mad with America’s BS and the art community at large. Rothko, compared to Still was/is a wus. Rothko has nothing to say, besides colors that matches one’s new sofa, and he knew it, then committed suicide knowing he was going no where intellectually or psychologically with his work. These critics can make sh _it up for a kindergartner’s finger painting. They are no more than copywriters to sell merchandise. . . to make money. Spewing out “intellectual-speak,” having no real substance. Revered as art critics, yet dead as a door nail on the inside.

Clyfford Still depicted the most intense emotional and psychologically devastating astigmatism of white America - THEIR enslavement and THEIR hatred towards the magnificence of the black man. The blood spilled. The terror evoked. The misery of being. The lost strength and knowledge. The waste of humanity. Yet, a line of hope is held onto ruthlessly and savagely yet with a tearful remembrance of past memories. Alien memories from another space in time. This could also be easily interpreted as the violence towards the Native Indians, the Chinese, the Mexicans. The foolish arrogance of a white man. Still’s painting aren’t of “…beautiful, spacious skies and amber waves of grain.” There are intense emotions of anger, betrayal and violence. The LINE of Hope is being searched for, yet not quite discovered.

Baloney

I think Still painted from the side and left to right, and then turned the painting to the orientation you see on museum walls. The brushstrokes suggest this.

Nice!

Großartiges Museum! 🖼👍🏼

2nd speaker?seemed to struggle with expressing the whole meaning and problems lots of stumbling

The song used, is the first song in an amazing album, Nothing Is Still. 10/10 would/have recommend/ed to a friend.

Excellent, well management archive...much more easier to get pattern process of artist

I'm reading Franz Kline: The Artist's Materials right now, and it's interesting to see how thinking has changed about some of the details of this presentation over time. Nothing huge, but Kline was painting Corinthian II before the fire that destroyed the original Corinthian. Stuff like that. I'm glad the conservators have gotten the time they need to delve deep into Kline's history and methods. His work seems like it's in good hands.

Not gonna lie her voice is so wet it’s hard to watch this video

Maude Sutton,Clyfford’s art teacher at Spokane University, would only work with him if it were one on one. Lessons were done in the corner of the classroom she taught in. She later stated that he was a difficult student.

The best way to learn about him these days is to simply grab a copy of his MET Museum Catalog. He was behind the whole thing. TREMENDOUS PAINTER!!!

You really should have interviewed JOSEPH MARIONI for this documentary. He was one of the very few that Still actually created a dialogue with that he still has the letters and even a customized painting that none of you probably know about. He was very special to Marioni as Marioni was special to him. The Still museum SHOULD put an exhibition together pairing Marioni with Still. He actually walked through the MET museum with Still after it was hung.

Beautiful abstract

❤

Love it!

Does anyone know what kind of tubes Still used for the original rolled paintings, they look a mottled grey - not the sonotube-like ones used by the conservators ???

Loved his combination of colors. In each of his works you see something exciting.

I think his work is the most amazing for my soul.

Refreshing and inspirational .

I found it very interesting how the artist developed his paintings - it really shows how the artist worked, and even the thought process of the artist. Excellent presentation. Thanks!

Very un-interesting, mediocre abstract works. Perhaps if the "artist" concentrated more on the images rather than his own obsession with race, his works would be much more substantial.

A hell of an artist,I love his work.

This shit is art?????

I'm told my work is neo expressionism,I have thought many times that abstract will dominate or convince me to experiment it .I love this great abstract artist.clifford ,simply dared to dare!great work!

Where's the paintings

I live in Seattle. When I lived in Rochester, one of the things my friends, and I enjoyed most was a visit to the Albright-Knox. I was speaking to an art dealer in town a while ago, and I mentioned the A-K, he looked at me with a sad grin and said "there's nothing like that out here". It's true.

super art

A fascinating perspective.

Some really good information here - thank you

super art

Thank you for providing a recording of this program. I was able to visit the exhibition last weekend and was taken in by the story of PH-238 and the archival material concerning the payment. The exhibit was fascinating. We are very fortunate to have the Still collection in Denver.

I love both Clyfford Still and Jonas Burgert's work.

Another overrated nonsensical box ticking art fraud .....art history has a way of marginalising such pretentious nonsense

I'll bet my two year old can make better finger paint art than this guy. I'll have to put it on the market and eventually have a children's art museum

Mark Bradford always looks 32

My final thought '' You got money, buy good paints. ''

What a beautiful convergence; 10 year anniversary and the powerful inaugural address of a really dynamic, caring director. I could not be more excited for the future of the Clyfford Still Museum. Such a good keynote.

Very enjoyable and informative, thanks.

I enjoy your museum!!! You do great job!!!

Sensational.

@4:21 Shout out to Jagged Edge

Where exactly can we see this documentary

And not a single woman artist mentioned ... how can artists also be so blind?
