Artes visuais no contexto da deficiência visual: inquietações provocadas por estágio na educação especial

Abstract

This article is the result of research carried out for the preparation of the final course work that sought to reflect on the inclusion of visually impaired individuals in the context of Visual Arts. In this sense, dialogues were established on imagination, blindness/vision and perception between artists, researchers and educators with and without visual impairment, followed by a report of an experience of a curricular internship carried out in Special Education, in the state of Minas Gerais. This research concluded that there is a need to improve the offer of accessible art to individuals with disabilities and, in Visual Arts teacher training courses, to discuss possible pedagogical practices in artistic creation by, with and for individuals with disabilities, which reflect on ways to adapt the teaching/learning process in Visual Arts for these students and which strengthen teachers as instigators of experiences for all in their forms and de-forms.
