The Mystery of Pablo Picasso (1956 Documentary)

"The Mystery of Picasso is a 1956 film, made by Henri-Georges Clouzot.

It aims to unravel Picasso’s process of painting and of artistic production of metaphysical meta-projects in just 75 minutes.

This film documents the production of 20 original works by Picasso. Here we see how Picasso’s earlier works were made principally in black ink, with little tinges of color at certain places and gradually the proportion and range of colors increased.

It highlights the main subjects of Picasso’s paintings, which were mainly women and women’s breasts, bullfighting, Mediterranean scenes, though they were abstract in quality, the occasional old school cubist flourish."

Our objective is to redefine the political economy of modern/contemporary art practice away from its current dominance of narrative definition and return to a a practice where it is defined by its visual presence. The dominance of of the narrative over the visual presence in contemporary/modern art practice is a result of the commodification of modern/contemporary art practice caused by domination of private art galleries and government funded insinstitutions. We aim to democratise contemporay/modern art practice by returning the control of its political economy to the hands of the practitioners and have it defined by its visual presence and not by its narrative interpretation. Our aim is to have every household in every country of the world not only as owners of modern/contemporary art pieces but also as their narrative interpreters and to be share the practice of creating, critiquing and interpreting modern/contemporary art through social media as opposed to the current practice where private galleries, government institutions and elite collectors define and interpret narratively the meaning of visual representations.Contact Saatchi Art and ask for some free samples of my work and contact me in regard to free art for charities or for anything else.
