Encruzilhadas de gênero em um currículo-museu

Abstract

This article is the result of a research that investigates what we call a curriculum-museum with gender and its possibilities of learning in the collection of Memorial Minas Gerais Vale in Belo Horizonte/MG. From the post-critical studies of gender and curriculum was used the methodology of the field diary and participant observation of the daily life of the museum. The objective was to map the possibility of learning from the "gender crossroads" in the museum, that is, those moments when gender norms are put in check. A sewing machine and a metal watering can were selected as problematizing elements in theoretical and empirical research. The results indicate that a curriculum-museum can provide multiple encounters by producing displacements in learning about gender. Finally, the study points out the relevance of a curricular practice permeable to different world readings and different ways of existing.
