Rizzoli Electa DB - UniCat KW - Painting KW - Abstract Expressionist KW - abstract expressionisme KW - Still, Clyfford UR - https://www.unicat.be/uniCat?func=search&query=sysid:131874774 AB - This volume celebrates the powerful late works of Clyfford Still (1094-1980), the pioneer of Abstract Expressionism and one of the most influential and enigmatic painters of vanguard group, which included artists such as Mark Rothko, Jackson Pollock, Lee Krasner, and Willem De Kooning. The large-scale paintings of Still's late career are virtually unknown to the public and many are published here for the first time. This relevatory book investigates the paintings and drawings Still made after his move to rural Maryland in 1961. This marks a particularly fertile period for Still; here, he made over 375 works on paper before his death in 1980 at the age of 75. Given Still's especially reclusive posture later in life and the fact that none of the artworks in Still's estate were exhibited or made available to anyone before the opening of the Clyfford Still Museum in Denver in 2011, this publication of 40 paintings and 30 works on paper is especially meaningful. The publication also coincides with a landmark exhibition of these works at the Clyfford Still Museum. ER -
