The Late Works: Clyfford Still in Maryland
<p>This exhibition, the first of its kind, investigates Clyfford Still's later works, both in painting and in drawing, made after his move to rural Maryland in 1961. This marks a particularly fertile period for Still; he made over 375 works on canvas and over 1,100 works on paper (nearly all in pastel) in Maryland before his death in 1980 at the age of 75. Given Still's especially reclusive posture later in life and the fact that few late works were distributed or shown during his lifetime, a full-scale presentation of these works is especially meaningful. The exhibition will include approximately 40 paintings and 30 works on paper.</p>
