Ode to Azia: an Asia Argento official website
Welcome
Welcome to Ode To Azia, an official website 100% dedicated to the multitalented Asia Argento!
Ode to Azia started as a small fansite in 2003, kept growing over the years, and has since then become the largest resource for Ms. Argento on the internet. It's been an authorized Asia Argento fansite from the beginning, but it recently become her second official online home.
Ode to Azia is a bit like Asia Argento herself: not everyone may like us, but we're here to stay!
I hope that new visitors will leave the site with a better knowledge and appreciation of Ms. Argento and her work. And I also hope that old time fans will keep coming back for their Az fix.
While we're at it, I'd like to remember you all that I'm always looking for contributions, so please consider donating scans, videos, anything.
The Legendary Tiger Man is back with a limited EP 7″ for the single “Life Ain’t Enough For You” (from his forthcoming album ‘Femina’) and one exclusive vynil track, both featuring Italian diva Asia Argento on vocals.
Relish, Italian brand launched in 2007, chose Asia Argento to endorse its Fall/Winter 2009-2010 campaign. The photos were taken by the French photographer Seb Janiak. The session took place in Milan, in a studio, last June 10th and 11th. The campaign is said to be launched mid-July in the most important women magazines.
The last time Asia Argento was at Cannes, she had three films in the festival. In one of them, she distracted an ex-lover by idly masturbating in front of him (Boarding Gate); in another, she licked the blood off her wounded lover’s chest (The Last Mistress); and in the third, she made out with a Rottweiler (Go Go Tales). This year, the fearless Italian actor-director was no less ubiquitous on the red carpet, but she kept a discreet silence throughout the festival as a member of the nine-person jury, which, rumors suggest, was a hotbed of acrimony.
Asia Argento, interpellata sull’esclusione di ‘Vincere’ dai premi di Cannes, ha risposto: “Avete visto il palmarès e la nostra decisione. Non ho altro da dire. Di Vincere di Marco Bellocchio in giuria ne abbiamo parlato una volta e anche bene. Tutto qui”.
Nella rosa del palmares fino all’ultimo o mai considerato per i premi del 62esimo festival di Cannes? “Posso parlare solo dei film che abbiamo premiato, su tutti gli altri, compreso ‘Vincere’ di Marco Bellocchio, non sono autorizzata a parlare. Devo rispettare il regolamento”, ha detto all’Ansa, Asia Argento, elegante in abito da sirena,
All users who registered in the gallery in late April and May have been deleted and need to re-register if you would like access to the latest images. There seems to be a problem with the confirmation notification not being emailed to new users when they register, so the registration settings have been edited and you can now register and then log in with your appropriate information.
Scans of Asia in the May 27th issue of Vanity Fair Italy are now available in the gallery and can be viewed here. Asia looks simply breathtaking in the photoshoot and I have to say that it is definitely a new favorite of mine. Gorgeous!
Many thanks to my friend Isabelle for the exclusive video! Many more to come as soon as I have some more free time. I’ve been and will be terribly busy with offline and online life lately.
“Vincere” represents Marco Bellocchio’s sixth time in Cannes. His new movie tells the tragic story of Ida Dalster, the first wife of Benito Mussolini, who was later airbrushed out of the official accounts of his life. “Vincere” is a likely contender for Cannes awards. Early reviews were quite positive.
“Vincere” is the only Italian film in competition at Cannes this year. The title of the film borrows from one of Mussolini’s slogans, which means ‘to win.’
Bentornata, Asia.
… Asia non può far troppo tardi. Deve andare a casa, far da mangiare, stare con i suoi figli …Asia è …a Cannes …in giuria… E, alla serata inaugurale del Festival, aveva un abito di Giorgio Armani: chiaro, colorato, luminoso. Sembra un’altra persona.
Dov’è finita la ragazza trasgressiva?
«… io sono diventata famosa quando avevo diciassette anni… era difficile sopravvivere essendo sempre se stessi. Così, mi sono inventata un personaggio…»
ONEDREAMRUSH is a very cool-sounding collaborative effort between filmmakers, writers, actors and actresses that was created by the New Zealand Vodka brand 42BELOW and, as such, is the first implicitly branded content ever admitted to the Cannes Film Festival.
Essentially, a bunch of world-renowned artists were brought together to create 42 films, each 42 seconds long and all of them about the interpretation of dreams. Among those featured are Abel Ferrara, David Lynch, Asia Argento, Michele Civetta, James Franco, Kenneth Anger, Arden Wohl, Sean Lennon, Mike Figgis, Harmony Korine and so many more. Each director’s film will be featured at this website for one year, and the complete work will begin a tour following Cannes that will take it through New York, London and Rome.
Thanks to Audrey for letting me know that Asia’s appearance on L’Hebdo du Cinema can be viewed here. Unfortunately we couldn’t find a way to download or embed the video here. Speaking of videos, I’ll soon have many good ones for you.
New photos of Asia’s appearance on L’Hebdo du Cinema earlier today have been added to the gallery, as well as a few lovely new photos from the jury press conference and opening ceremony. Enjoy the new additions!
