Overview
The Asolo Art Film Festival, founded in 1973 as an offshoot of the Venice Art Biennale, is the world's oldest festival dedicated to the dialogue between cinema and visual arts. It showcases films on art (documentaries, biographies, historical reconstructions) and art films (video art, animation, experimental works), drawing hundreds of entries from over 70 countries annually. Supported historically by UNESCO, it remains a significant international reference for original and high-quality art cinema that often lacks mainstream distribution.
