his work as a director at the Theatre Alfred Jarry and his
production of Strindberg's A Dream Play; and a series of practical
exercises to develop an approach to theatre based on Artaud's key
ideas. As a first step towards critical understanding and as an
initial exploration before going on to further, primary research,
Routledge Performance Practitioners are unbeatable value for
today's student.

Since the early 2000s there has been an increase in artists who are
walking as an essential part of their artistic practice. This book
identifies the unique attributes of walking to develop a definition
for walking as an artistic medium. Drawing on historical sources,
such as the walks of the Romantic poets, Dadaists and
Letterist/Situationist Internationals, it presents a practice based
approach to walking focused on the radical memory of the medium.
The book covers three contemporary organisations working to develop
the artistic medium of walking-London's Walking Artists Network,
Scotland's Walking Institute and New York City's Walk Exchange-and
looks at how these different organisation's strategies contribute
to the development of the artistic medium of walking. The book is
framed by five walking exercises, and invites the reader to create
a memory palace for the medium of walking as a practical
exploration of artistic walking practices.
