O museu como espaço de mediação na juventude: afetos e reflexões

Abstract

The research deals with the Museum as a space of mediation for young people from affections and reflections. Through the Triangular Approach, systematized by Ana Mae Barbosa, the aim is to discuss mediation practices within museums. The research deals mainly with the work with art-education in history museums, contemplating the Museum of Arts and Trades as a space for the construction of knowledge. Authors such as; Barbosa (2004; 2009) and Coutinho (2009) deal with mediation and image reading, Dewey (2010) the question of art as experience and Ramos (2004) the art-education in history museums. Rocha (2012) is reminded when discussing the approximation of art with life and Braga (2018), the idea that the museum is a space that is in process. Researcher Silva (2012), conducts arguments about mediation as a sociological action, contemplating the work with young people seen as historical-social beings and active subjects who bring knowledge and history. The museum is seen in research as a space for the construction of knowledge, where young people can reflect and express themselves.
