A wonderful painter that most people don't know about. He did amazing things with color and light but he didn't seem to be willing to sell many of his paintings. This collection is most of the works he ever did. Its worth a trip just to see it.

If you're not into this particular type of modern stuff it's a waste of money. Not enough variety of style

Amazing and unique museum. Its very interesting being some where that only shows one artist. The architecture of the building itself is art

You don't expect to find a principal of the AbEx movement here on the edge of the prairies. But Still was a child of the upper west. His early work, 30s Depression, is as an American Picasso. The bulk of Clyfford Still's work though, is equal in stature to NYC 50s icons Jackson Pollack, Mark Rothko, Willem de Kooning, and... More

It is such a unique treat to visit a museum built specifically to show one artist. The building is just gorgeous and I can't wait to go back as the museum rotates the artist's work. Thank you Denver!

I'm not a huge fan of abstract expressionism but still enjoyed the museum. The gallery spaces are light filled and showcase the paintings. The museum is small and honestly the admission price seemed a little high for what is there. Still, worth a visit.

If you enjoy art, you will be glad you found the time to visit the Clyfford Still Museum while in Denver. It is absolutely worth the minimal effort required to tour the galleries. If you are a lover of Abstract Expressionism, especially the American vernacular, it is worth traveling out of your way to see this museum at least once.... More

If you like contemporary abstract art, you must visit this museum. There is no other like it anywhere! The architecture is another reason to visit this museum. The texture, the angles, the lighting are all designed to complement Clyfford Still's unique art.

We visited this museum on the same day we took in the big Denver Art Museum right next door. The museum is devoted to this one artist, Still. One after another, we found his massive abstract canvases captivating and exciting. His selective use of color is amazing. Well worth the visit to make a day of it, park once and... More
