Katherine Simóne Reynolds’s guest-curated exhibition, Held Impermanence, draws deeply upon the collections and archives of the Clyfford Still Museum. In the six largest galleries, Reynolds illuminates multiple competing desires held in constant tension within the Museum. Reynolds’s exhibition asks viewers how to gaze upon healing over time, how to respond with their bodies to this corpus, how they might approach Still’s achievements from a perspective that contends with his and their own senses of mortality, and with it, a shared desire to hold impermanence.
On view at the Clyfford Still Museum from January 25–September 14, 2025.
