Metodologias em arte e educação desenvolvidas ao sul do Brasil: un Sur adelante

Abstract

This dissertation reflects on the art and education developed in the south of Brazil, more precisely in the Arts Center of the Federal University of Pelotas, an academic unit with a significant production in extension since its beginnings, even when it was called ILA - Instituto de Letras e Artes . Issues that cross different times and subjects are addressed, seeking rhizomatic approximations between the field of art and education, as well as the university, the city and, consequently, art and life. The focus of the work resides in the analysis between artistic and educational actions that reverberate in the urban space. For this, the artistic propositions of Luis Camnitzer, El museo es una escuela (2011-2016) and Pablo Helguera, Escuela Panamericana del Desasosiego, (2003-2011) are analyzed. As a case study about methodologies in southern Brazil, the teaching identities and narratives with a focus on extension, of the artist-teachers of the Centro de Artes - UFPel, José Luiz de Pellegrin and Nádia da Cruz Senna, are addressed. Actions by Nádia and Pellegrin are analyzed, which foreground an action beyond the classroom space and institutional walls. The analyzes show that the methodologies and the teaching of art developed in the south of Brazil are based on an ethical-aesthetic-social performance, occurring in a collaborative way, seeking an integration with the city community of Pelotas. Through the analyses, the uninterrupted circuit of teaching-research-extension in the practices of such professors was highlighted, something characteristic of the actions of UFPel itself
