They explore control of space, stereotyping, masculinities, movement and presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWalking in the Way\u003c\/em\u003e was first performed in Dublin in 2009 and the artists continue to probe the possibilities to date. As feminist artists who challenge essentialist fixed identities, these Irish artists seek to make visible how gender intersects with society. They pay particular attention to how small acts and movements can be re-presented and performed in and through their “gendered” bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Walking in the Way performances take place in cities where the two female artists take on the mannerism, gestures and physicality of male presence in the public arena. The focus of each piece develops from the general to the particular and each one is unique to that city. The development of the work is informed by key figures from the chosen community, and an important part of the research process is informed by understandings and connections that are forged with local individuals in each of the selected cities. The performances are observational, transient works, with a unique meaning and resolution. 10 performances have taken place in 9 different cities, Dublin, Belfast, London Edinburgh, Derry\/Londonderry, Istanbul, Madrid, Seville,\u003cbr\u003eand Malaga.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv title=\"Page 1\" class=\"page\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePublished by \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWAAG (Women Artists Action Group)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEdition of 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\" mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003eSoftcover with French Flaps\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e100 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\" mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003e260 x 200mm\u003cbr\u003eISBN 9781399920766\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"WAAG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42964670775510,"sku":"WITWPCFM","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2538\/3478\/products\/BookCoverWalkingintheWay_PerformingMasculinity.png?v=1652961613","url":"https:\/\/www.thelibraryproject.ie\/it\/products\/walking-in-the-way-performing-masculinity-pauline-cummins-and-frances-mezzetti","provider":"The Library Project","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
