Access All Areas publication review

In response to a competition run by a-n’s Interface platform for critical writing, Mik Scarlet has written a wonderful review of the LADA publication Access All Areas – Live Art and Disability 
 
“I am proud to have Access All Areas, Live Arts and Disability on my bookshelf. It's a publication that encapsulates the wealth of creative talent beavering away within the Disability Arts scene, contains the very best of their work, intelligent comment and discussion of process and practise, and looks great too. I believe it will become a seminal publication, not only for the Disability Arts world which it exposes beautifully but for the wider arts community as it demonstrates how make art books accessible. A must have for anyone interested in the arts and creative practise.”

Access All Areas is a combination of artists’ writings, creative dialogues, critical commentaries and DVDs featuring documentation of artists’ presentations and performances spanning 20 years, which reflect the ways in which Live Art has represented issues of disability in inventive and radical ways.
