Disability, Disabled,
Disability in the arts is an aspect within various arts disciplines of inclusive practices involving disability, and manifests itself in the output and mission of some stage and modern dance performing-arts companies, as well as the subject matter of individual works of art, such as the work of specific painters and those who draw.
Disability in the arts is distinguished from disability art in that it refers to art that includes disabled people, whether in themes, performance, or the creation of the artwork, rather than works focusing on disability as the central theme. It[specify] can also refer to work that is made as a political act toward shaping a new community, fostering disability culture:
People with disabilities sometimes participate in artistic activities as part of expressive therapy (also known as "expressive arts therapy" or "creative arts therapy"). Expressive therapy may take the form of writing therapy, music therapy, drama therapy, or another artistic method. While creativity and artistic expression are important parts of expressive therapy, they are secondary to the goal of achieving a therapeutic benefit. This article describes disability in the arts where artistic achievement is the primary goal.
