Disability art  Disability art or disability arts is any art, theatre, fine arts, film, writing, music or club that takes disability as its theme or whose context relates to disability. Disability arts is an area of art where the context of the art takes on disability as its theme. Disability art is about exploring the conceptual ideas and physical realities of what it is like to be disabled or concepts relating to the word. Disability art is different from Disability in the arts which refers more to the active participation or representation of disabled people in the arts rather than the context of the work being about disability. Disability art does not require the maker of the art to be disabled (see Disability Arts in the Disability Arts Movement for the exception) nor does art made by a disabled person automatically become disability art just because it was a disabled person that made it. An example of disability art by a non-disabled person: "Alison Lapper Pregnant", 2005, Marc Quinn is disability art because of its context as he reveals the concept of the work was to make "the ultimate statement about disability"   An example of disability art by a disabled person: "effective, defective, creative", 2000, Yinka Shonibare, shows photos of foetuses from women deemed to be at risk of delivering a defective baby, therefore looking at the relationship of defectiveness and disability. An example of art made by a disabled person that is not disability art: "Dorothea", 1995, Chuck Close; relates to his "strict adherence to the self-imposed rules that have guided his art" and "formal analysis and methodological reconfiguration of the human face" therefore conceptually has nothing to do with disability therefore is not disability art. Themes in disability art incorporate with the individual past, and present of how they look at their disadvantages. These disadvantages can be resulted in creating work to better understand them to those who do not. The themes that surround disability art are stereotypes, advantages, disadvantages, inclusion, exclusion, physical and mental health. Disability art is a concept which was developed out of the disability arts movement. In the disability arts movement disability art stood for "art made by disabled people which reflects the experience of disability." To be making disability art in the disability arts movement it is conditional on being a disabled person. The development of disability art began in the 1970s / 80s as a result of the new political activism of the disabled peoples' movement. The exact date the term came into use is currently unverified, although the first use of the term in the Disability Arts Chronology is 1986.
