Minotauromachy
An imaginary insight into Pablo Picasso's creative mind and painted creatures and characters. We enter in his head and walk with him the intricate maze that was his imagination to find the creatures and stories that populated his psyche and came out when he painted a canvas. His imagination is presented as the myth of the maze and the Minotaur, and some of the characters in the piece are in Picasso's real paintings - his famous dove, the Minotaur, and the ladies of Avignon, among many others.

A Major Disappointment
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
BRILLIANT FILM!!! MY INTERPRETATION OF THE FILM: When old Picasso draws the dove at the end of the film as he did at the end of his career, it flies back to the time of 1907 when young Picasso painted LES DEMOISELLES D'AVIGNON. It is as if the old artist is trying to save the young artist and the entire world from having to go through all the horrors of history such as GUERNICA. The young artist's cynical view of human nature predicted and painted a never ending spiral of evil and minotaurs for the world - this film and the old artist wish us to proceed with more doves than minotaurs; with more hope than [email protected]
As with many unique animated shorts that I have reviewed here on IMDb, I discovered Minotauromaquia on Cartoon Brew from Amid. Directed by Spain's Juan Pablo Etcheverry, it is a clay-animated depiction of the great modern artist Pablo Picasso and his dreams and nightmares of his various creations particularly the minotaur after he sees him devour one of his naked women (this scene is very vivid so I definitely wouldn't recommend this short for children). The way scenes go back and forth in recreating many of Picasso's drawings and a dove that provides light provide some of the most fascinating images for such a well done short. This is highly recommended for anyone with a sense of adventure concerning the imagination.
Striking plasticine figure account of Picasso making his way through a maze inhabited by his subjects, leaving arrows on the wall. An animated dove provides resolution. The bull headed minotaur, first seen devouring the naked woman is particularly arresting. Stravinsky's "Firebird" ratchets up the work some distance further from what we expect in animation.An interesting comparison with MIRROR MASK.This is another paragraph of unnecessary copy provided with no other purpose than to to bring this observation to up to a length that meets the requirements of the IMDb computer.
