Análise crítica da proposta de educação artística de Ana Mae Barbosa

Abstract

The following work is a contextualized analysis of Ana Mae Barbosa’s artistic education proposal. Its objective lies in the political and social discussion that this proposal entails, in view of the historical process that Brazil went through in the 20th century. In carrying out this, socio-historical-economic elements that characterize this period in public education were used, and, connected to that, an analysis of Barbosa’s theoretical production and its foundations in John Dewey. As a result, there is as a philosophical consideration, the need to restore a historical debate on the arts and education, centered on the question of the socio-educational project. Thus, it is sought to initiate an alternative approach to the treatment that art education theory receives in Brazil.
