I will be joining Asolo Art Film Festival in collaboration with Steve Bisson, for its 31th edition I'll curate a few exhibition design about russian artists.
AsoloArtFilmFestival
origins date back to 1973 when, by Flavia Paulon intuition and
foresight of a local government decided to support the cultural revival
of the town, the Film Festival on Art and Artists’ Biographies was
born in Asolo and was soon designed to become since the first edition,
one of the most important reviews of Films on the world. The selection
was so strict and the level so high that within a few editions the
prestige of the Festival was known throughout the world. In fact if you
scroll the list of over four hundred titles of films that have
contributed during the first ten years, you can find names of famous
artists or directors such as Alain Resnais, Andrei Tarkovsky, Jean
Rouch, Henri Stork, Luciano Emmer, George Treves, Plessi, Gaetano
Pesce, Luca Verdone. The Festival started being qualified since the
first edition, giving the Grand Prix Asolo to Tarkovsky’s film Andrej
Rubliov on the life of the famous Russian miniaturist, author of some
of the finest miniatures of the fifteenth century.
