Pablo Picasso a Painters Diary Movie Photo 1980 Artist Documentary Abstract Art Biography Pablo Picasso (25 October 1881 – 8 April 1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist, stage designer, poet and playwright who spent most of his adult life in France. Regarded as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, he is known for co-founding the Cubist movement, the invention of constructed sculpture, the co-invention of collage, and for the wide variety of styles that he helped develop and explore. Among his most famous works are the proto-Cubist Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907), and Guernica (1937), a dramatic portrayal of the bombing of Guernica by the German and Italian airforces. His radical ideas about art challenged the way reality is perceived. Called "the father of modern art" by some, Picasso's career spanned 75 years. A Painter's Diary is an intimate glimpse into the personal and professional worlds of this prodigious master. The film examines Picasso's body of work, as well as the individuals and locations that defined his life. Film highlights include commentary from Paloma Picasso and Claude Picasso. Through the artist's story, viewers discover a deeper understanding of the relationship of art to our everyday lives. Elizabeth "Lee" Miller, Lady Penrose (April 23, 1907 – July 21, 1977), was an American photographer. She was a fashion model in New York City in the 1920s before going to Paris, where she became a fashion and fine art photographer. During the Second World War, she was a war correspondent for Vogue, covering events such as the London Blitz, the liberation of Paris, and the concentration camps at Buchenwald and Dachau. In 1929, Miller traveled to Paris with the intention of apprenticing herself to the surrealist artist and photographer Man Ray. Amongst her circle of friends were Pablo Picasso, Paul Éluard, and Jean Cocteau, who was so mesmerized by Miller's beauty that he coated her in butter and transformed her into a plaster cast of a classical statue for his film, The Blood of a Poet (1930). In 1949, the couple bought Farley Farm House in Chiddingly, East Sussex. During the 1950s and 1960s, Farley Farm became a sort of artistic Mecca for visiting artists such as Picasso, Ray, Henry Moore, Eileen Agar, Jean Dubuffet, Dorothea Tanning, and Max Ernst. She also provided photographs for biographies Penrose wrote on Picasso and Antoni Tàpies. In 2015, an exhibition of Miller's photographs at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, Lee Miller and Picasso, focussed "on the relationship between Lee Miller, Roland Penrose and Pablo Picasso." Lee Miller portrays Picasso "Lee Miller photographed over a thousand images of Picasso during their long friendship. The photographs of Picasso have a more spontaneous and documentary air to them then than much of her other oeuvre. It is her longest running body of work. Over the years, Lee Miller’s keen eye captured the ever-evolving Picasso in his many-faceted existence. “His flashing black eyes have fascinated everyone who has even only seen Picasso but those who meet him feel thrown into an exciting new equilibrium by the personality of this small, warm, friendly man whose name means modern painting.” Lee Miller, “Picasso Himself” in Picasso. London, 1960. In all of the images, Picasso exudes a magnetic energy that Lee Miller prodigiously captured through her lens. It is when immersed in work or involved in play with his concentration elsewhere that the artist’s vitality and presence is best felt in her images. The dark intensity of Picasso’s eyes often stopped the camera, impenetrable like the masks he was so fond of wearing. Her Surrealist eye always at play, Lee Miller’s visual vocabulary often uses spatial qualities, juxtapositions of objects, and reflections which add another dimension to her images of Picasso’s world." - "Lee Miller. Picasso in private", Museu Picasso, Barcelona Picasso: A Painter's Diary - Documentary TV Movie, 1980. Produced and Directed by Perry Miller Adato.
