Work Description: 
This handwritten note features a list of students who supported the exhibition "Paintings by Clyfford Still" at the Metart Gallery in San Francisco. Although an unknown author drafted the list of names, Still produced the miscellaneous notations on the other side of the paper. In 1946, the artist returned to the Bay Area to begin teaching at the California School of Fine Arts. A group of CSFA students opened the Metart Gallery at Still’s recommendation in 1949. With the announcement of his resignation from his position the following year, Still's students invited him to show a selection of thirteen paintings, twelve of which were completed during his teaching term at the school. On view June 17 through July 14, 1950, the presentation of these artworks served as the gallery’s final exhibition.
