In an unprecedented move, the Clyfford Still Museum in Denver has agreed to loan paintings by the Abstract Expressionist Clyfford Still to the Royal Academy of Arts in London. During his lifetime, Still had forbade institutions from loaning works he donated, but in his will, his demands were more ambiguous. The museum, which made the decision to loan the works in collaboration with Still’s children, will send nine paintings to London for inclusion in a major exhibition spotlighting Abstract Expressionism.
