Titled In Interludes and Transitions, the Diriyah Contemporary Art Biennale 2026 unfolds as a choreography in various movements, inspired by the flows, migrations, and transformations that have long connected the Arab region with the world. This guidebook is both companion and score to the Biennale, tracing its unfolding rhythms across sites, performances, conversations, and forms. The Biennale’s five movements-A Procession, Disjointed Choreographies, A Hall of Chants, A Collective Observation, and A Forest of Echoes-unfold within the extensive converted warehouses and outdoor spaces of the Diriyah Biennale Foundation in the JAX District, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, featuring nearly seventy artists working across generations and geographies. Reflecting this breadth, the guidebook offers an illustrated record of In Interludes and Transitions, including images of newly commissioned works alongside documentation of key artistic contributions. Conceived as both a tool and an extension of the Biennale experience, the publication invites readers to move through the exhibition’s interludes and transitions long after the works themselves have been encountered
