COMPETITION ANNOUNCEMENT
ASOLOARTFILMFESTIVAL

‘Festival Internazionale del Film sull’Arte e di Biografie d’Artista’
Cinema – TV – Video – Videoart – Computer Art –
Film School Productions
1-6 November 2005


The 2005 edition of the AsoloArtFilmFestival will be held in Asolo (Treviso) from 1-6 November 2005. The festival upholds the cultural tradition established by the ‘Festival Internazionale del Film sull’Arte e di Biografie d’Artista’, embodying the same concept. Inaugurated in 1973, the former festival enjoyed great international success for over two decades, until it finally closed at the end of the 1990s. Thirty years after its inauguration and following the advances made in visual language, the festival has been relaunched as the AsoloArtFilmFestival: an international event centering on a competition with prizes, for cinema devoted to the arts in their myriad forms of expression.
The competition has five sections:
· FILMS ON ART for works devoted to the visual arts and to music
· ARTISTS’ LIVES for projects that depict, through a historical reconstruction and critical interpretation, personalities from the world of visual arts and of music
· AUTEUR CINEMA: THE CHALLENGE OF EROTICISM for films that elevate the universe of sensuality to the level of art
· VIDEOART – COMPUTER ART for works utilizing electronic or computer technologies as a means of direct artistic expression
· PRODUCTIONS related to the visual arts and music, made by recognized film schools, specialized higher education institutes and universities
The festival’s artistic directors are Fabrizio Borin and Carlo Montanaro, and the event was conceived and organized by the cultural association Asolo International Art Festival (AIAF), a nonprofit private organization with legal status (Veneto Regional Council Decree (DGR) no. 59741.03 of 18.04.03).
The AIAF is chaired by Lionello Puppi.

Quand les extraterrestres débarquèrent, nous eûmes affaire à des êtres doués d’un exceptionnel pragmatisme et d’un sens de l’intervention tout simplement surdéveloppé.
Intervention à propos de quoi ? Peu importe à l’extraterrestre, du moment qu’il intervient.
Exemple d’intervention : inspecter une planète.
Motif de l’intervention : inspecter.
Motif de l’inspection : Motivation. Inspecter s’il y a lieu de nourrir des soupçons, qu’on ait trouvé quelque chose ou non.
Comme disait mon grand-père: un but, des moyens, une mission, un chef.
Le but : trouver quelque chose.
Après quoi, l’extraterrestre pourra se dire " C’est bien là ce qu’on cherchait ". Mais il faut savoir que ne rien trouver tendra à justifier, alimenter, voire accentuer les soupçons, ou pire, mettre l’extraterrestre devant l’équivalent d’une angoisse métaphysique qui ne pourra être calmée que par un acte de punition compensatoire à l’égard d’un sujet arbitrairement choisi, ou une consommation de camboum-camboui plus importante qu’à l’accoutumée, proportionnelle au degré de panique engendrée par la peur du manque de résultat.
Les moyens : proprement, les forces déployées, les pédoncules de l’extraterrestre, et une sagacité de l’œil chasseur que le camboum-camboui n’a pas réussi à obturer complètement — ce qui est tout à son honneur.
La mission : trouver un but. Cibler un objectif.
Autre exemple d’intervention : consiste à observer ostensiblement les êtres humains qui se trouvent stationner sur le sol de ladite planète inspectée antérieurement, et qu’on soupçonne avoir un lien avec elle. Les observer, afin de percer un comportement par trop naturel. Flairer, pour voir si on flaire quelque chose. C’est logique — une logique de fer, qui peut s’exprimer en ces termes : Il faut bien flairer pour savoir s’il y a quelque chose à flairer.
Ces extraterrestres nous étonneront toujours.
