Thanks to its complex design and high level of technical craftsmanship, the book conveys the theme chosen by Artistic Director <strong>Wayne McGregor<\/strong> and interpreted by the participating artists. The catalogue is, in fact, composed of <strong>nine booklets enclosed in a slipcase<\/strong>.<br \/>\nThe first and final booklets both consist of images. In the first one, nine sequences by Eadweard <strong>Muybridge<\/strong> have been graphically altered to convey the essence of the theme <em>Time Does Not Exist<\/em>: subjects removed or replaced, edge detection, and point cloud mapping using LiDAR technology. The final booklet, instead, retraces <strong>the twenty editions of the Festival<\/strong>: each year is represented by an iconic image from the Historical Archives of La Biennale di Venezia. The photographs, presented individually, are linked together by colour strips that symbolise the persistence of images over time.<br \/>\nThe remaining booklets contain the introduction by the President of La Biennale, Pietrangelo Buttafuoco, and the curatorial text by Artistic Director Wayne McGregor, which presents his vision of the chosen theme. These are followed by an essay by Australian academic <strong>Tyson Yunkaporta<\/strong> \u2013 a scholar of Indigenous knowledge systems and their relevance to global challenges \u2013 and six interviews with some of the artists featured in the Festival (<strong>Stephen Page &amp; Frances Rings<\/strong>, <strong>Mamela Nyamza<\/strong>, <strong>Imre &amp; Marne van Opstal<\/strong>, <strong>Andrea Salustri<\/strong>, <strong>Elle Sofe Sara<\/strong>, <strong>Wen Hui &amp; Eiko Otake<\/strong>). Another booklet explores the theme through the artists\u2019 own words and an evocative image of their choice. A section is dedicated to the winners of the Golden Lion, <strong>Bangarra Dance Theatre<\/strong>, and the Silver Lion, <strong>Mamela Nyamza<\/strong>, as well as to the artists present at the Biennale Danza 2026, complete with stage photographs, descriptions of the works, and artists\u2019 biographies. One booklet is for the Biennale College Danza 2026 (for Choreographers and Dancers), which this year once again sees the participation of two world-renowned contemporary dance choreographers (<strong>Maxine Doyle<\/strong> and <strong>Molissa Fenley<\/strong>). The <strong>films<\/strong> to be screened during the Festival are detailed in another booklet, which ends with a presentation of the <strong>workshops<\/strong> open to the public and led by the artists.<br \/>\nGraphic design and layout are by <strong>Studio Headline, Rovereto<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h1><strong><i>Time Does Not Exist <\/i>| Catalogue of the 20th International Festival of Contemporary Dance<\/strong><\/h1>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7845,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_members_access_role":[],"_members_access_error":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[47],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-7843","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-books","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.9 (Yoast SEO v28.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>BIENNALE DANZA 2026 - La Biennale di Venezia Store<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/store.labiennale.org\/en\/prodotto\/biennale-danza-2026\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"BIENNALE DANZA 2026\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Time Does Not Exist | Catalogue of the 20th International Festival of Contemporary Dance\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/store.labiennale.org\/en\/prodotto\/biennale-danza-2026\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"La Biennale di Venezia Store\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-08-25T13:50:24+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/store.labiennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/catalogo-biennale-danza-2026.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1920\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1080\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"3 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/prodotto\\\/biennale-danza-2026\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/prodotto\\\/biennale-danza-2026\\\/\",\"name\":\"BIENNALE DANZA 2026 - La Biennale di Venezia Store\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/prodotto\\\/biennale-danza-2026\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/prodotto\\\/biennale-danza-2026\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/06\\\/catalogo-biennale-danza-2026.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2026-06-30T13:58:57+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2026-08-25T13:50:24+00:00\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/prodotto\\\/biennale-danza-2026\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/prodotto\\\/biennale-danza-2026\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/prodotto\\\/biennale-danza-2026\\\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/06\\\/catalogo-biennale-danza-2026.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/06\\\/catalogo-biennale-danza-2026.jpg\",\"width\":1920,\"height\":1080},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/prodotto\\\/biennale-danza-2026\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Shop\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/shop\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"BIENNALE DANZA 2026\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/store.labiennale.org\\\/en\\\/\",\"name\":\"La Biennale di Venezia Store\",\"description\":\"Arte, Architettura, Cinema, Danza, Musica, Teatro, Archivio Storico delle Arti Contemporanee, College, etc etc...
