American director Brian De Palma will receive more than one tribute in Venice this year.

Venice Director said, ?The child of an artistic era (the ?70s) full of innovative ferment, Brian De Palma has made a name for himself as one of the most skillful directors in constructing perfect narrative mechanics with great creative freedom, experimenting with new technical solutions, rejecting the classic rules of the language, abandoning himself to esthetic virtuosity, and celebrating his favorite authors.?
