Filmmakers Ismail Merchant and James Ivory faced almost insurmountable challenges in producing the film Surviving Picasso, which takes on the relationship between Pablo Picasso and his companion Francoise Gilot. They were not able to attain the rights to Gilot’s autobiography Life with Picasso, relying instead on Arianna Huffington’s Picasso: Creator and Destroyer, nor did they receive permission to show any of Picasso’s artwork. This lecture with Caroline Harris, associate director for education, investigates the resulting depiction of the painter, providing a larger context for the period portrayed.
