The Mystery of Picasso

Lord Crumwell’s Oddfellows Artists Mini Figures
Show your gratitude. Nietzsche said, ‘The essence of all beautiful art, all great art, is gratitude.’ Show your gratitude for fine art by picking up this 5-pack of 3-inch mini figures. You’ll get some of history’s most influential artists: 1x Andy Warhol, 1x Salvador Dali, 1x Frida Kahlo, 1x Vincent Van Gogh, and 1x Pablo Picasso. Andy is just dandy! As a pop artist, a short-lived MTV show host, and director of such films as Andy Warhol’s Dracula, this artist turned the world of art on its head. And speaking of heads, Andy Warhol dons the artist’s signature wig and black outfit. What better way to embrace art than through the artist or in this case, a figure representing the artist? As an added bonus, Andy carries a trademark can of soup. He was living the surreal life before it was cool! Artist Salvador Dali is here, ready to brighten up your home or office with his striking gaze and familiar moustache. Who says facial hair is just for men? A striking artist who led an amazing life, Frida is replicated here. With her dress, unique eyebrow, and stylized design, this character represents everything Frida Kahlo lived for– except her art, her love, and anything other than how she looked. In other words, this figure represents the artist’s unique appearance as many remember her. He’s got something to say– can you lend him your ear? Van Gogh created some amazing works of art, and this figure is sure to remind you of his finest works. Sure to brighten an already bright and starry night, this mini figure features the artist’s orange facial hair, paint brush, and jacket. Can’t afford one of Pablo Picasso’s paintings? Settle for this Picasso toy instead. This one features Picasso with an unsatisfied look, dressed in a black and white shirt, blue shorts, and flip-flops. Nearly 20 years ago, Lord Crumwell vanished from the face of the Earth. Soon after, his estate was mysteriously burned to the ground.

The Mystery of Picasso
Like a matador confronting a bull, the artist approaches his easel. As he wields his brush, the painting dances into being before our eyes. Pablo Picasso, the most influential artist of the 20th century, is making art, and famous French director Henri-Georges Clouzot (Diabolique, The Wages of Fear) is making a movie. This entirely new kind of art documentary captures the moment and the mystery of creativity; for the film, the master created 20 artworks, ranging from playful black-and-white sketches to widescreen color paintings. Using inks that bled through the paper, Picasso rapidly created fanciful drawings that Clouzot was able to film from the reverse side, capturing their creation in real time. When the artist decided to paint in oils, the filmmaker switched to color film and employed the magic of stop-motion animation. By contract, almost all of these paintings were destroyed when the film was completed. Unavailable for more than a decade, “The Mystery of Picasso” is exhilarating, mesmerizing, and unforgettable; it is simply one of the greatest documentaries on art ever made. The French government agrees; in 1984 it declared the film a national treasure.

Customer Review: A one-of-a-kind look around the creative universe of Picasso!
“The mystery of Picasso” is one of these absorbing films that immediately engage you from the first shot. To watch Picasso in plain creative process, thanks to the admirable craft of Clouzot is not precisely an occasion to waste it.

This monumental and over the top film is an absoluter must for cinema’s lovers, art students and all kind of people.

One of the greatest films ever made!

Customer Review: The Mystery of Picasso
This is a great movie for anyone who has ever wondered how a real work of art is created. Watch as Pablo Picasso creates works in color, black and white, paint, and ink.

The only aspect of the film I did not enjoy was the soundtrack. It does not fit the action on screen and is sometimes unnecessarily loud.
