Title Generative, reductive or exploitative? How change in policy, funding and production practice impacts disciplinary and transdisciplinary practice in disability arts in Australia
Creator Contributors
Abstract/Description In this article, I draw on a developing body of archival research into disability arts in Australia to consider how changes in training, production and presentation, accessibility, funding, politics, aesthetics and audience engagement practices have influenced the development of disciplinary and transdisciplinary work in the field. Disability arts in Australia is recognized globally for its innovation and impact. Efforts to document this legacy as part of the Australian Research Council funded The Evolution of Disability Arts in Australia project have highlighted the challenge of tracing the history of historically marginalized artists who have not always had the time, space, platforms and support to create work or hold collections recording the creation of that work in formats, modes and media meaningful to the creators.
