Too long overlooked, this new documentary examines the early years of Pablo Picasso. What are the reasons behind Picasso’s rise to artistic greatness? Three cities played a key role: Malaga, Barcelona and Paris. This film visits each and explores their influence on the artist, focusing on works 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.
