Gender and the City (Eng)

“GENDER AND THE CITY”

FLYER BerlinGenre et Ville is a French organization which analyses and questions city planning through a Gender angle.  CestBeauLePouvoir is the ArtCtivist extension of Genre et Ville creating art installations and public interactive performances.

“Gender and the City” is part of a long ongoing project on gender and city planning.  The Berlin/Paris project takes a particular angle: How to occupy the city differently to fight discrimination and promote empowerment situations for women?

The Project “Gender and The City” will take place in two phases:

Phase 1 in the Belleville neighborhood of Paris in March 2013

  • Workshop in February and march 2013
  • Presentation and exhibition at the “Maison des Métallos” on March 24th 2013

Phase 2 in the Neukölln neighborhood of Berlin in May 2013

  • Workshop 2-6 May 2013
  • Presentation and exhibition on May 8th

The project will be animated by CestBeauLePouvoir ArtCtivists Pascale Lapalud and Chris Blache, both founders of Genre et Ville.
