Clyfford as a Colorist
This large-scale exhibition will explore the significance of color in Still’s art. The exhibition will be arranged among five distinct galleries, each devoted to one of Still’s signature hues: red, yellow, blue, black, and white. Still’s interest in high-key color— in particular red, yellow, and blue—is apparent in very early works such as PH-77, 1936, where both clothing and landscape are reduced to these primary colors. The exhibition considers early portrait and figurative compositions in which single colors tend to pervade, such as the predominance of blues in PH-296, 1935.
