FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE Henri-Georges Clouzot - Picasso 

It was my father who told me this story about Picasso. The painter worked in a small mountain hut, quite remote, unlocked. This attracted the interest of a journalist who asked the artist how he could just leave all those paintings unsecured in the hut. "Are worthless"; Picasso is said to have replied. "Unsigned." For his part, the manic artist Clouzot now shows for the very first time how a painting by Picasso is created. Well noticed; he does not describe, he SHOWS! That's why this documentary can be considered unique! And isn't it an extremely intimate process that Clouzot now lets his friend Picasso demonstrate to the public? The idea: Picasso paints on transparent canvas, Clouzot films. Because the canvas is transparent, we can watch Picasso paint. Picasso uses special pencils for this, switching from realistic to surrealistic representation. Interspersed are conversations between the two friends Picasso and Clouzot. Note that we do not witness Picasso drawing one of his masterpieces, but we witness the process of his art. And the works are not yet signed.
