The first edition took place in June 2011[1] The aim of the festival is to present to the general public a selection of the best books and films on art published or produced during the past year on an international scale.

A week of conferences, screenings, readings, signatures, workshops for children, professional round tables, thematic evenings, allows the world of art to meet and present its most important productions.

[2] The FILAF festival relies on a scientific professional committee, recognized in each of their disciplines, responsible for selection throughout the year.

Open year-round, it completes the regional offer by presenting temporary exhibitions of contemporary art.

The event takes place during a contemporary art fair created in 2016 by French curator Stéphane Corréard.
