 Each audience has his/her own understanding about the visual features and meanings of films. Art films are out of the ordinary frames to bring broader visions interpreting the meanings of life. From June 6 till June 10 of 2018 , 36th Asolo Art Film Festival (AAFF) sets the theme on (In)Appropriate Glances to emphasize that one of the creative features of art films is to include differences. The Other is not otherness for art film directors anymore . We should treat difference with empathy and appreciate such colorful multi-cultural coexistence.  Famed as the oldest art film festival in the world, Asolo Art Film Festival was founded in Asolo in 1973 by Flavia Paulon, the founding member of Venice Film Festival. Since then, AAFF has accumulated very rich collection of original art films, including the award-winning films in the following category: art film, film on artist’s biography, film on architecture, design and territory, video art, animated film, music video, film school work, original soundtrack, etc. The 36th edition calls more than 300 entries for competition, and the jury committee selects 60 films among them as the finalists to be screened at AAFF.  Another spotlight on the collateral event “BRICS Art” is the focal theme on the curatorial projects from Brazil, Russia, India, China&Taiwan, and South Africa. AAFF invites Taiwanese curator Yunnia Yang to curate the video project “The In-Between State of Mind” for the Eastern Europe/Russia Video Research. Dr. Yunnia Yang has insight on the transition and evolution of the ex-Soviet countries in the political, social, economic, cultural, and artistic aspects after the collapse of the communist regime in 1989. “The In-Between State of Mind” includes 20 films from 12 countries: Russia, Lithuania, Poland, Czech Republic, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia, Macedonia, and Albania. This curatorial project is dedicated to the artists, who experience the drastic change after the end of the communist regime and witness how people embrace new capitalist lifestyle, perceiving the alternative evolutions out of this binary system and responding to this postsocialist condition with visual lyricism, witty irony and creative imagination. 

   本屆影展以「卡拉瓦喬:靈與血」(Caravaggio: Soul and Body)展開視覺饗宴的序幕,以影展競賽得獎作品頒獎典禮盛大閉幕,將由威尼斯影展主席Alberto Barbara親臨頒獎,國際影展評審團陣容也相當堅強,由威尼斯藝術學院院長Carlo Montanaro擔任評審團主席,邀請法國龐畢度藝術中心影像藝術策展人  Philippe Alain Michaud,俄羅斯莫斯科電影大學(VGIK)教授Natasha Noussinova擔任評委。此外,本屆影展Elenora Duse表演藝術終身成就獎得主義大利知名女演員Piera degli Esposti將出席受獎。注重電影人才的培育與多元電影視野的開拓,影展規劃學校工作坊(School& Atelier藝術紀錄片圓桌會議,以及多項影像專題包含「俄羅斯影展」(Russian Film Festival) 「新視野」(New Vision) 「全景」(Panorama) 「性與電影」(Sex and the Cinema) 「女性觀點」 (Female Regard) 美國實驗電影導演Shirley Clarke等單元,並特映由Adrian Maben 所導的「時尚攝影大師紐頓:邊緣鏡頭」(Helmut Newton: Frames from the Edge),還有應接不暇的精彩表演如VJ現場表演廣場投影交響音樂會與街頭藝術等活動, 吸引來自義大利各地喜好電影與藝術的民眾前往觀賞。
