  • DIS STD 187: the Politics of Disability Aesthetics in Visual Culture
    DIS STD 187: The Politics of Disability Aesthetics in Visual Culture Disability Studies Minor, Undergraduate Education Initiatives University of California Los Angeles Fall 2016: Wednesdays, 3pm – 5:50pm, MS 5200 COURSE SYLLABUS Instructor: Amanda Cachia E-mail: [email protected] www.amandacachia.com Office hour: Wednesdays, 1:30-2:30pm, Kaufman Room 185 Course website: https://ccle.ucla.edu Course Overview: Inscribed surface, political object, sign, flesh, boundary, matter, cultural product, artistic work—these are some of the many ways that the disabled body has been theorized and imagined in a wide cross-section of critical scholarship and cultural production. This interdisciplinary course seeks to provide a broad overview of the presence of disability and its various manifestations throughout modern day visual culture, with a special emphasis on how disabled artists have offered a revision to the existing negative constructs typically associated with the disabled form. Conventional art history has not typically accounted for intellectually and physically disabled subjects and their accompanying atypical bodies through the art museum and their curated exhibitions, through commercial art galleries and biennials, or the entire exhibition complex structure. A small number of patronizing and demeaning representations have appeared in art genre presentations such as ‘outsider art’ but these derogatory constructs have generally failed to be challenged by art historians, critics, curators and artists. It is important to build a new vocabulary and methodology around disability and access in challenging and stimulating ways, and this class will attempt to find the language to build this framework around how disability might fit into the discourse of visual culture.

Roman* Faculty of Education, Department of Educational Studies, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada TaylorTIED_A_404364.sgm10.1080/13603110903041912International1360-3116Editorial20091370000002009LeslieRomanleslie.roman@ubc.ca and& Francis (print)/1464-5173Francis Journal of Inclusive (online) Education This article considers the implications of a disability arts, culture and scholarship series ‘The Unruly Salon’, undertaken at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver in Canada, which ran from January to March 2008. It asks how and whether the encounter of this Series with its diverse audiences makes a lasting contribution to the reshaping of education at the University of British Columbia in terms of curriculum, pedagogy, place, space and culture. It argues that The Unruly Salon Series is but a cornerstone in the groundwork for the ‘global citizenship’ to which the University’s Trek 2010 policy and mission statement aspire. The question is not only: what have the disabled and non-disabled participants of this timely and creative series learned from about working within the ‘fragile spaces between impairment and disability’?, but also the article asks: how will Canada’s third largest public university learn so as to transform its intellectual, social culture and built environment for prospective and existing students, faculty and staff with disabilities? The article concludes that such social change advantages the impaired and non-disabled alike. Keywords: disability arts and culture; politics; policy; inclusion A truth that’s deeper than the truth of dreams: the truth of the body.

  • Disability Studies - Enabling Equality
    Rembis; Yes We Can Change 19 Yes We Can Change: Disability Studies - Enabling Equality Michael A. Rembis, Ph.D. University at Buffalo Abstract In this article, I offer a brief assessment of the international disability rights and culture movements and disability studies, as well as a commentary on the future of disability and disability studies. A diverse group of activists, artists, and scholars have brought about momentous legal changes in dozens of countries around the world. They have also enabled a critical rearticulation of what it means to be disabled. Yet, this revisioning of disability and this repositioning of disabled people remains fraught. I contend that while movement participants, scholars, and their allies are off to a great start, they have yet to grapple in any serious way with some of the most important and contentious issues within the disability rights and culture movements and disability studies, namely their own internal diversity and the material reality of many disabled peoples’ lives. Despite these complexities, I maintain that the disability rights and culture movements and disability studies have tremendous transformative potential. We are living at a critical moment of history. The monolith), we recognized that we, the disabled, had ar- election of Barack Obama as the 44th President of the rived socially and politically. Or had we?

  • Joseph Grigely
    Beautiful Progress to Nowhere by Joseph Grigely I’m not a specialist in the field of disability studies; but, being deaf, and an artist, and an academic (I teach visual and critical studies at an art school), I am often asked my thoughts about disability and art by disabled artists. Are disabled artists ‘ghettoised’? Offhand, I can’t really say I know the answer to this. It is a question that feels familiar from discussions about race and gender in the 1970s. But it’s not quite the same question because of the complexity of disability: disability transcends both race and gender, it transcends religion and national origin, it is visible and not visible, and where it is not present it is always latent. Disability is not just an identity but a legal ontology, and the conditions that define a person as disabled are themselves unstable – at least in the USA, where I live.(1) It could be argued that disability theory has its own ghetto in academia – most disability studies programmes are linked to programmes in pathology and rehabilitation, not culture; the first American PhD in Disability Studies is based within the College of Applied Health Sciences at the University of Illinois. This is almost inevitable because disability is, by definition, a study of human pathology, not culture. When we start talking about disability and art, the disability may or may not be relevant, either to the art or the artist, and so it is hard to generalise about it. What I can do is offer some empirical observations that derive largely from my experience as an artist and academic over the past 20 years.
