Cristina Caprioli – CCAP will present several performances and receive the Golden Lion Award for Life Achievement at Biennale Danza 2024 in Venice. The Italian/Swedish dancer and choreographer Cristina Caprioli is the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement of Biennale Danza 2024. A leading figure in Scandinavian dance, the international reach of Cristina Caprioli’s thought and work, writes director of the Dance department Wayne McGregor in his motivation, “has quietly and substantially influenced multiple generations of choreographers during her three decades of provocative physical research”. Between July 18th and August 3rd, several productions by Cristina Caprioli (including a new commissioned work by the Biennale) will be presented at the Biennale. The Golden Lion award ceremony will be held on July 21st in Sala delle Colonne in Ca’ Giustinia.
