A Decolonial Perspective on Art Education in Everyday School Life

New contexts influence the debates and practices of art education in Brazil and open up new fields of enquiry for decolonial critique. By demanding consideration of the role of artistic representations in the production and reproduction of the "colonial difference", various studies have been initiated that question artistic disciplines and the regime of the gaze from the concepts proposed by decolonial criticism. In this way, the debates proposed to rethink art/education in contemporary times, including decolonial thinking, are called upon to reintroduce and represent the geographical and epistemological discontinuity regarding art and aesthetic expressions. This work was produced from these questions, seeking to investigate alternatives towards other educational narratives in the context of art education in everyday school life.
