ASIFA created the International Animation Day (IAD) in 2002, honoring the birth of animation, recognized as the first public performance of projected moving images: Emile Reynaud’s Theatre Optique in Paris, on the 28th October 1892. 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.

The exterior design is very restrained, and the concrete is very expressive. I admire the designer&#39;s ability to express this material, and the pool in front is also very good. This complex includes concert halls, theaters, etc., and is a center for classical art.

Best Things to Do

Boat tour

Night view

江苏无锡JC

This 50-minute tour of the Statue of Liberty doesn&#39;t involve landing on the island. When the boat gets very close to the statue, it stops for photos and even switches directions to accommodate passengers on both sides. This tour is perfect for travelers with limited time in New York. Purchasing tickets on Ctrip is very convenient. After payment, you receive a QR code for your ticket instantly, which you can scan to board the boat. If you miss your scheduled boarding time, don&#39;t worry; you can use the QR code at the ticket window to change to the next available boat. Also, you don&#39;t need to arrive at the dock more than half an hour early; ten minutes is enough, and there&#39;s no security check.

The Empire State Building is still the most classic of all the viewing spots in New York. Even though it is so old, its facilities are not outdated and the scenery is unbeatable. As long as you catch the sunset and night view, it is worth the ticket.

The Chinese Pavilion at the Metropolitan Museum of Art is truly worth a visit. Across thousands of miles, it still amazes the world! I&#39;m grateful to Victor Zhou for his professional and thoughtful explanation, which made this trip to New York a perfect ending!

The Museum of Modern Art

Had an hour to spare during a business trip in NYC, quickly saw it was near the hotel and entrance was cheap enough. Really didn&rsquo;t expect to see iconic pieces the Starry Night and Les Demoiselles d&rsquo;Avignon in person, as I didn&rsquo;t research this place before so it was a nice surprise. Try to get there before noon for an uncrowded experience.

Central Park

Fall Viewing Attractions

jam***26

Central Park is very fun. There are large lawns and many squirrels running around. You can rent bicycles and ride horse-drawn carriages in the park. It is also nice to just walk around. There is a huge children&#39;s playground not far from Columbus circle. Children from all over the world who come to New York come here to play. They can play in the sand and water, and there are slides, swings, and rockeries. It is easy to play for half a day. There are also many people playing on the lawn. Many people there like to throw frisbees. Many families come here for vacation. It doesn&#39;t get dark until about 8:30 in the summer in the United States, so it&#39;s no problem to play in the park for a whole day!
