Picasso's Light Drawing
Running Man
Picasso Begins a Light Drawing
GJON MILI + PABLO PICASSO
Check out Gjon Mili's photos from a series done in 1949 of Picasso drawing with light. They were done using a small flashlight in a very dark room with a very long exposure.
So interesting...the image disappears before it gets a chance to live for just one moment...but his motions are captured for eternity.
For insight on how to try this yourself, here are step-by-step instructions.
As for Gjon Mili, he seemed to have quite a knack for capturing motion. Here's a piece that I love.
And here's a short film from 1944 that he directed, called Jammin' The Blues. Perfect for a night like tonight...
