Item Open Access Exploring barriers to social inclusion for disabled people: perspectives from the performing arts(Cambridge University Press, 2021-09-05) Collins, Ayse; Rentschler, R.; Williams, K.; Azmat, F.Although the potential of arts to promote social inclusion is recognised, barriers to social inclusion for disabled people in the arts is under-researched. Based on 34 semi-structured interviews with disabled people and those without disability from four arts organisations in Australia, the paper identifies barriers for social inclusion for disabled people within performing arts across four dimensions: access; participation; representation and empowerment. Findings highlight barriers are societal, being created with little awareness of needs of disabled people, supporting the social model of disability. Findings have implications beyond social inclusion of disabled people within the arts, demonstrating how the arts can empower disabled people and enable them to access, participate and represent themselves and have a voice. Our framework conceptualises these four barriers for social inclusion for disabled people for management to change.Item Restricted Opera ve bale izleyicisi değişiyor mu?(1984) Öztürk, HandanItem Open Access Social inclusion of disabled performers in the performing arts: a case from Türkiye(Emerald Publishing Limited, 2023-10-25) Collins, Ayşe; Fillis, I.; Sanal, Z. G.Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to develop an understanding for the social inclusion of disabled performers in a developing country to create awareness and improve policies/practices. Design/methodology/approach – The study employed qualitative methodology, and data were collected through semi-structured interviews, site visits/observations and review of secondary data. Findings – The data from different respondent groups showed the social inclusion should be reviewed at three levels: the state, society and individual. The review of existing policies revealed the neglect of the state regarding disabled people in general and even more so in performing arts due to the lack of enforcement of national and international agreements. Findings indicate that social inclusion of disabled performers is a minor issue, especially in a developing country where access to basic human rights and needs may be difficult. Amidst such difficulties, performing arts is not seen as a priority compared to other needs of disabled people and performers. Research limitations/implications – Limitations include the limited number of disabled performers who could be identified and were willing to participate in the study. Those working in venues/public offices were also reluctant to participate. The greatest limitation was the broad lack of interest in disabled performers. Originality/value – In Turkiye, studies on disabled people tend to focus on basic needs like health, education € and employment. None, to best of researchers’ knowledge, explore the social inclusion of disabled performers. This is an original study because it collects and discusses primary data on this topic, revealing the state-level negligence/ oversight, the apathy of society and the degree to which an individual with disabilities must struggle to participate in performing arts. Consequently, this study shows the difficulty of developing social inclusion, equality and diversity in an emerging economy for disabled performers to raise awareness and present grounds for further legal enforcement. Moreover, implications allow for a global understanding of social inclusion that moves beyond a biased or privileged understanding/critique of disability centered on the developed world.Item Restricted Türkiye’de kostüm tasarımı ve Funda Çebi(Bilkent University, 2022) Özcan, Burak Eren; Durmaz, Deren; Özmutlu, Dilay; Kaya, İlayda; Kasap, SelinBu çalışmada, Türkiye’de kostüm tasarımı üstüne birçok çalışma yapan Funda Çebi’nin bireysel tasarımlarını oluşturmaya başladığı günden günümüze kadar sanat dünyasına, özellikle de kostüm tasarımına yaptığı katkılar araştırılmıştır.
