Too long overlooked, it is time to look at the early years of Picasso. What are the reasons behind Picasso’s rise to artistic greatness? Three cities played a key role: Malaga, Barcelona and Paris. Young Picasso visits each and explores their influence on Picasso, focusing on artworks from these early years. Looking carefully at two key early periods – the so-called Blue Period and Pink Period – the film takes us all the way to 1907 and the creation of a critical painting in the history of art; Les Demoiselles d’Avignon.
With privileged access to the Picasso Museums in Malaga, Barcelona and Paris this film, directed by award-winning filmmaker Phil Grabsky, explains how Pablo Ruiz Picasso became ‘Picasso’.
