The Mystery of Picasso (French: Le mystère Picasso) is a 1956 French documentary film directed by Henri-Georges Clouzot. In it, the painter Pablo Picasso produces 20 drawings and paintings, at first using inks that bleed through the paper on which he is drawing, with the act of creation filmed in real-time from the backside of the easel, and later using oil paints, with Clouzot employing a stop-motion-like effect to depict the development and modification of the works. The film begins with Picasso creating simple marker drawings in black and white, and he gradually progresses to full-scale collages and oil paintings.

The pieces created before the camera were supposedly subsequently destroyed so they would only exist on film, but there are reports that some survived.[2]

Release

The Mystery of Picasso was released in France on 18 May 1956.[1] It won the Special Jury Prize at the 1956 Cannes Film Festival[3] and was shown out of competition at the 1982 Festival.[4]
