is getting in gear to celebrate its 90th anniversary with an international conference to be held in Venice in July.
The First Exposition of Cinematic Art — later to be known as the Mostra del Cinema in Italy and the Venice Film Festival globally — opened on Aug. 6, 1932 on the terrace of the Lido’s Excelsior Hotel under the auspices of Count Giuseppe Volpi di Misurata; sculptor Antonio Maraini; and the fest’s first director, Luciano de Feo.
The confab’s afternoon session will be dedicated to “live voices” of some of the event’s “most authoritative protagonists” with personal accounts, recollections, and anecdotes that “will compose a mosaic of memories no less significant for the reconstruction of the glorious adventure that is the Venice Film Festival,” a Biennale statement said.
