Just as visual artists understand the relationship between positive and negative space in their work, France's master filmmaker Henri-Georges Clouzot (Diabolique) understood--and set about demonstrating via The Mystery of Picasso--the relationship between creation and destruction in the artistic process. In 1955, Clouzot teamed with his friend Pablo Picasso to capture as many aspects of the brilliant painter's working methods as possible. Clouzot innovatively placed the camera in front of Picasso while the latter worked, thus capturing astonishing reverse images of brush strokes and "bleeding" inks in volatile motion. The result is that Clouzot's film--the screen, the frame--become Picasso's canvas, and we find ourselves inside his prodigious genius as works of beauty spontaneously burst forth and are instantly crushed beneath the weight of new images, new ideas. A viewer would be forgiven if, more than once, he felt like screaming at such nonchalant carnage. --Tom Keogh

Customer Reviews of The Mystery of Picasso

Brought Life To My Eyes
I was completely awestruck by the absolute wondrous way in which Picasso constructed his paintings. It was one of the most beautiful essays of an artist on film. I still can't believe the magic that Picasso weaved with his brush, transforming the painting from one image into another. Funnily enough, I saw "Surviving Picasso" a week ago, and this made that film seem completely and utterly ridiculous. I am so thankful that a film such as this, is available. Just imagine having a movie of Da Vinci or Raphael, well this is it! The true genius of the twentieth century in all of his glory. I was just blown away by his astounding confidence yet there was none of the ego-maniacal ways that I have read about. This puts that all to rest. This is a lasting testament to a mans greatness. Thank you Picasso!


MASTERFUL!
This film is a real treat, as gives us an insight into the work of Picasso by literally allowing us to see the master at work and how his simple brush strokes incredibly evolve into masterpieces, in some instances even metamorphosing before our eyes from a figurative piece in to a cubist expression of the same. This is a film that I was pleasantly surprised to see my 5-year-old son sit through shearing my amazement as Picasso worked for the camera. It's a definite "must have" for those that like Picasso and who, after viewing this movie, will appreciate his work even more!


Facsinating Film on Picasso
This is a nice DVD edition. The images are clear and the color is rich and natural. The commentaries are also quite good. Peggy Parsons talks about the film as a film and about Picasso's showmanship, and the commentary by Archie Rand analyzes the paintings and is quite insightful. His commentary is a bit dry, and since he is a professor, he's a little too into himself and his big words. One annoying aspect to his commentary is his constant reference to Picasso's "courage" in the act of creating art. No, sorry! Someone suffering from cancer and living through hellish treatments shows courage, not a wealthly perfectly healthy artist in a studio making a painting! But overall I found both commentaries insightful and added to my understanding and appreciation of this film and Picasso.
