Discovering the world of art, inspired by Pablo Picasso’s paintings
Live cinema shows and art workshops for children
Vlefaro Live Cinema lands at the SNFCC in March to present original productions based on Pablo Picasso’s life and work. A series of screening shows and art workshops will take place, based on handmade moving images and paper constructions that produce patterns of movement.
In the first part of each session, children and their adult chaperones attend a screening in which images are being painted and composed before their eyes, accompanied by live music. Following the screening, they participate in a sound and image art workshop, in which they process the screened material creatively.
Pablo and the animals
Picasso displayed his love for painting and animals from a very young age. He would observe the bird illustrations that his father made at home and watch the movements and behaviors of the animals he came across during his walks in the woods. At parties, his schoolmates would vainly try to challenge him, daring him to paint a horse by starting from the tail. When he turned 20, the artist moved to Paris. He lived in Montmartre, the artistic heart of Paris, with his dog, Frika, three Siamese cats, a turtle and a mouse. In his paintings, we can see doves, bulls, horses, goats, fish, owls, and more!

Is this a Picasso, too?
It was Pablito’s fourth birthday when his mother gave him a book of all the works of his famous grandfather, Pablo Picasso. Pablito carefully opened the large, heavy book with anticipation. He browsed through the hundreds of paintings: portraits, tigers, roosters, horses, more horses, guitars, acrobats – all so different from each other. Pablito was wondering, “How did he manage to paint in so many different ways? And these painted plates? Is this a Picasso, too?”
