Da visão reprodutora de imagens ao pensamento fotográfico: trajetórias para a construção de novo olhar através do ensino de artes visuais

Abstract

This paper aims at presenting the unfolding of a school year and its reverberations in artistic and photographic actions of seventh grade students of Sant’Ana Primary Municipal School. Having as research problem the following questioning: “How to think and produce photography which transcend the compulsory act of pushing the button of photographic devices and make possible esthetical, sensitive, creative and reflexive creations?” In face of theoretical and reflexive readings about the stimulus of production of municipality, where the photographic approaches were proposed based on some texts, and in the proposition to become - an animal, to experiment other look, and new perspectives in face of the production of photographies. The goals were achieved, which aimed at incentivizing the creation of photographic images through the sensitive knowledge, making possible a new look for the act of photographing, instead of reproductions of images, which surround us, visualizing the importance of the photographic act in contemporary practices, so students can reflect on artistic production. The relevance of this proposal for art teaching is in its applicability aimed at the speech, reflection, production and analysis of photographic images, since photography is inserted in the contemporaneity, not only in artistic sectors, but mainly in the society. It is important to instigate the students to reflect on the photographic massification and propose a more conscious, responsible, respectful and sensitive production through studies, reflections and meaningful photographic productions, encouraging in their productions the character of visual esthetics and creation. Some authors were important not only during the theoretical part of the classes, but also in the theory of this paper. Such as Ruben Alves and Eduardo Galeano, as well as the photographers Henri Cartier-Bresson and Sebastião Salgado.
