ASIFA coordinates and helps promote IAD celebrations all over the world, putting the art of animation in the limelight in a global worldwide celebration of animation. In recent years, this unique event has been commemorated in more than 50 countries, on every continent of the world. Find out what’s happening this year at https://iadasifa.net/ Every day we witness the importance and beauty of animation in a variety of media. It spreads in commercial theatres – featuring 3D animation and special effects, on TV, publicity, music industry, cross media, internet, but, and most specially, it develops and grows as an art form, through shorts, multimedia and feature films, created by independent authors, artists, students, and children from all over the world. Animation includes an impressive range of approaches, techniques and goals. Created by drawing, painting, animating puppets and objects, using clay, sand, paper and computer, working with multiple narratives and non-narratives, reflecting a diversity of themes and performances, presented on a variety of platforms. All of this confirms that ANIMATION is an extraordinary and powerful medium of art, cultural expression and communication. And, as a visual storytelling medium, animation can communicate across cultures without verbal language. It truly is a means for cultural connection. ASIFA strives to support the opportunities for exchange and celebration that this event offers. Stimulating dynamics and collaborations between chapters, groups and agents from different countries, we try to assist in connecting animators to each other, celebrating our unique art form, and bringing animation art to the general public.

Be Safe: Realistic Women’s Self Defense We live in dangerous times. Assaults and violent crimes against women are happening throughout the city and around the world. To protect yourself you need a clear self-defense mindset and realistic physical self defense skillsets. Many martial arts methods aren't practical, if you just want to learn how to protect yourself. They often require years of training , that you don't have time for and aren't practical when you're faced with danger on the street. Be Safe gives you a real life approach---street smart awareness and strategies you can use to defend yourself. It's not going to teach you how to be 'Wonder Woman' in the movies. Practical and realistic five step approach: 1.How to intelligently avoid dangerous situations How to defuse threatening situationHow to fleeHow to confront the assailantHow to incapacitate the assailant in extreme situations.Street Smart Awareness Emphasis is on developing strategic street smarts and awareness training. Awareness – not unrealistic movie fighting techniques – is the key weapon. Strategic thinking is the key to empower you to be safe and protect yourself in dangerous situations on your homes, work and streets. We cover mindset and practical strategies on how to proactively respond. We discuss your experiences with violence, help you understand the brutal reality of self defense and what to do in dangerous situations. Topics we address: Real world self defense Movie and t.v. martial arts Reality of Violence Self Defense Mindset A-B-C’s of Self Defense Your Weapons Natural Body Weapons Body Targets – vital points Secret: natural training methods Practice with partner drilling.

Anthropologist Fred Myers and art critic Terry Smith are joined by curator Maia Nuku to discuss six Papunya paintings featured in a 2022 exhibition in New York. They draw on several discourses that have developed around First Nations art—notably anthropology, art history, and curating as practiced by Indigenous and non-Indigenous interpreters. In the early 1970s at Papunya, a remote settlement in the Central Australian desert, a group of Indigenous artists decided to communicate the sacred power of their traditional knowledge to the wider worlds beyond their own. Their exceptional, innovative efforts led to an outburst of creative energy across the continent that gave rise to the contemporary Aboriginal art movement that continues to this day. In their new book, anthropologist Fred Myers and art critic Terry Smith discuss six Papunya paintings featured in a 2022 exhibition in New York. They draw on several discourses that have developed around First Nations art—notably anthropology, art history, and curating as practiced by Indigenous and non-Indigenous interpreters. Their focus on six key paintings enables unusually close and intense insight into the works’ content and extraordinary innovation. Six Paintings from Papunya also includes a reflection by Indigenous curator and scholar Stephen Gilchrist, who considers the nature and significance of this rare transcultural conversation.
