The 2024 edition of the Diriyah Contemporary Art Biennale takes place in the JAX District in Diriyah, a town adjacent to the capital city of Riyadh and home to the Unesco World Heritage Site of At-Turaif. The curatorial team of this biennale is led by   Ute Meta Bauer  as Artistic Director.

"The role of a biennial goes beyond the presentation of contemporary art, as it feeds off and nurtures the cultural ecosystem in which it is embedded." She said  "This multifaceted and multi-format Biennale can be seen as a journey, becoming a place for both interaction and contemplation, as each work becomes a storyteller, a protagonist, or an actor in a play. It brings together artists from different parts of the world with artists from Saudi Arabia and the wider region. Presented through various artistic languages, these works are engaged in shared issues around land, water, food, and healing practices"
