点评:I like to seek out specialty-type museums, time permitting, when I am away from home. This quite unique (as a concept) art museum, dedicated to a single artist, Clyfford Still ... who I had not heard of perviously, checks the "specialty-type box" for me.
The museum is located nearby several other museums, and close to the capital. Nicely designed building. Friendly, helpful people -- Anna and Anthony -- at the entrance desk area (see photo).
I wanted to recognize Anna, who is pictured, as she was delightfully engaging, willingly answered my questions, and made a nice museum experience even better. Thanks Anna!
On the first floor you can watch a video that is a nice introduction to this artist and the museum, and the timeline of this artist's life in context with what else is going on in the world at the time, was very interesting. The artwork, which is on the second floor in nine different rooms, although I'm not sure I counted correctly, is approached best by starting with the artist's early years and proceeding through the later years.
While I enjoyed some of the artwork, to me, it is the entire experience of this museum and emphasis on this single artist that left me quite fulfilled in terms of this art experience. One quite out of the ordinary characteristics of the artwork is that there are no descriptions, as, apparently, the artist wanted the museum goer to take away their own impression of each piece of artwork.
There's also a small, but well stocked area where children, or creative adults can create all kinds of their own artwork.
Recommend that this museum be added to your list of places to visit while in Denver!
翻译:当我出门在外时,如果时间允许,我喜欢寻找专业型博物馆。这个相当独特(作为概念)的艺术博物馆,致力于一位艺术家,克莱福德·斯蒂尔(Clyfford Still)……我以前没有听说过他,为我勾选了“专业类型框”。
该博物馆毗邻其他几家博物馆,并且靠近首都。设计精美的建筑。友好、乐于助人的人们——安娜和安东尼——在入口处的接待处(见照片)。
我想认出图中的安娜,因为她非常迷人,愿意回答我的问题,让这次美好的博物馆体验变得更加美好。谢谢安娜!
在一楼,您可以观看一段视频,该视频很好地介绍了这位艺术家和博物馆,以及这位艺术家的生活时间表与当时世界上正在发生的其他事情的联系,非常有趣。这件艺术品位于二楼的九个不同的房间里,尽管我不确定我是否计算正确,但最好的方法是从艺术家的早年开始,一直到晚年。
虽然我很喜欢其中的一些艺术品,但对我来说,正是这个博物馆的整个体验以及对这位艺术家的重视让我在这种艺术体验方面感到非常满足。这件艺术品的一个非常不寻常的特点是没有任何描述,显然,艺术家希望博物馆的参观者消除他们对每件艺术品的印象。
还有一个虽小但藏品丰富的区域,儿童或有创造力的成年人可以在这里创作各种自己的艺术品。
建议将此博物馆添加到您在丹佛期间参观的地点列表中!
