About
Museum Building and Galleries See Schedule O.Museum Building and Galleries: The Clyfford Still Museum raised funds from private philanthropic sources to finance the construction of the Clyfford Still Museum facility. The two-story, 28,500-square-foot building broke ground in December 2009, construction was completed in September 2011 and the Museum opened to the public in November 2011. The building, custom designed by Brad Cloepfil of Allied Works Architecture for the storage and display of the Still collection, won the 2012 Honor Award from the New York Chapter of the American Institute of Architects. A cantilevered canopy of concrete leads visitors into the first-floor lobby, and glass walls allow visitors to see into the conservation studio and collections storage. The Museum's open design embodies the founding principle of the institution, the revealing to the public of this once-private and very personal collection.The second floor consists of a series of nine distinct galleries, having varying ceiling heights and proportions designed for the optimal display of the different elements of the Still collections. One of the singular features of the Museum is its daylight system that includes diffusing skylights and motorized shades situated above a custom-formed, perforated concrete ceiling. The Museum's state-of-the-art mechanical systems maintain the optimal environmental conditions for the preservation of the artworks.
