Great Art On Screen – Picasso: A Rebel in Paris

Anarchist, Stranger, Revolutionary:
A new interpretation of the most amazing 20th century artist, 50 years after his death.


THE STORY OF A LIFE AND A MUSEUM
Fifty years after his passing, we embark on a journey through Pablo Picasso’s Paris, amidst sunshine and shadow, convictions and contradictions, from a young, impoverished foreigner to one of the most important icons of the 20th century. The film moves continuously in and out of the Musée Picasso in Paris – housing the largest existing collection dedicated to the painter with 6,000 masterpieces and 200,000 pieces of archive material – and follows Picasso through the Parisian neighborhoods where he lived, from the early days in ateliers with no heating to the large middle-class apartments where his success began: a physical and intellectual journey to gain a deeper understanding of his work and spirit.

Set against the backdrop of the Musée Picasso in Paris, explore Picasso’s evolution through his art and spirit in a city full of contradictions. An original portrait of a young immigrant destined to become a 20th century icon.
