Theatre Collection The Arts Council England Live Art and Performance Archive
What is The Arts Council England Live Art and Performance Archive?
The Arts Council England Live Art and Performance Archive (ACELAP) was made over
many years by a series of individuals who had the responsibility of managing the Live Art
and before that, the Performance Art, portfolio for Arts Council England.
In this position they provided grants and developed strategies for supporting emerging
areas of arts practice and they received examples of the work funded, its documentation,
and promotional and publicity material which over time built into a substantial and valuable collection.
A brilliant representation of the development of innovative contemporary arts practice during
the 80's and 90's in the UK, the ACELAP Archive was donated to the Theatre Collection at the University
of Bristol in 2007.
