Beskrivning
In this accessible introduction to the study of Disability Arts and Culture, Petra Kuppers foregrounds themes, artists and theoretical concepts in this diverse field. Complete with case studies, exercises and questions for further study, the book introduces students to the work of disabled artists and their allies, and explores artful responses to living with physical, cognitive, emotional or sensory difference. Engaging readers as cultural producers, Kuppers provides useful frameworks for critical analysis and encourages students to explore their own positioning within the frames of gender, race, sexuality, class and disability. Comprehensive and accessible, this is an essential handbook for undergraduate students or anyone interested in disabled bodies and minds in theatre, performance, creative writing, art and dance.

Recensioner i media

'Petra Kuppers draws on two decades experience developing inclusive learning environments to create a handbook for artists, scholars and students coming into this critical field of cultural work. Readable, relatable and above all practical, Teaching Disability Arts & Culture provides a comprehensive account of pedagogical strategies Kuppers has deployed with success in classroom, community and artistic contexts of all sorts. For students and those adapting their own arts, cultural and teaching practices to make them accessible for diverse communities, it will be a fantastic new resource.' - Bree Hadley, Queensland University of Technology, Australia
