Pablo Picasso Guernica 3D
November 27, 2009 ⋅ Uncategorized ⋅ by L. Ruano ⋅ 15 Views

Arguably one of his finest and most influential paintings, Pablo Picasso’s Guernica is seen above in a completely different light, thoroughly examined in digital 3D through this intriguing video.

“Guernica is a painting by Pablo Picasso, depicting the bombing of Guernica, Basque Country, by German and Italian warplanes at the behest of the Spanish Nationalist forces, on April 26, 1937, during the Spanish Civil War. The Spanish Republican government commissioned Pablo Picasso to create a large mural for the Spanish display at the Exposition Internationale des Arts et Techniques dans la Vie Moderne (1937) Paris International Exposition in the 1937 World’s Fair in Paris.

Guernica shows the tragedies of war and the suffering it inflicts upon individuals, particularly innocent civilians. This work has gained a monumental status, becoming a perpetual reminder of the tragedies of war, an anti-war symbol, and an embodiment of peace. On completion Guernica was displayed around the world in a brief tour, becoming famous and widely acclaimed. This tour helped bring the Spanish Civil War to the world’s attention.”

    painters beware. the audience of art is changing and has different expectations. paintings are “boring”. we can dismiss it as “kids today…”, but the truth is we need to up our game if we want to capture viewers’ attention. (not that picasso wasn’t at the height of his game when he did guernica!)

    I don’t really know what to say. This adds a different perspective to a painting that is supposed to have a very specific perspective. Does it ruin it? Quite frankly it does not add anything to it, that’s for sure

    i agree with the previous statement,
    plus a 3d rendering of something as a picasso seems quite beneficial to fully understanding a painting,
    for example ma jolie by picasso is quite a fascinating painting when delved into

    …when left in the 2d medium. This is a nice interpretation of it though.

    the layering is subjective. I’ve seen hand crafter models of this and many other picasso paintings and even after extensive studying and diagramming everyone has a different view on it. Just so people. Not trying to hate on anything, this is cool, but the painting is quite a bit more complex than this…

    Unlike re-making a film or covering a song, a 3d video rendering is not in the same medium as a painting. As such, I don’t see how it can “ruin” the experience or the importance of the original. Saying you ‘cant add something’ is also lazy commentary. It is a great use of the technology which I believe was used in a respectful and provocative way.
