Leituras da paisagem cultural do conjunto moderno da pampulha e a inter-relação dos bens integrados com a bacia hidrográfica para o seu (re)conhecimento como patrimônio da humanidade

Abstract

Seeking to understand the various dimensions of the term Cultural Landscape in the context of the Pampulha Modern Ensemble, as a World Heritage Site, allows us to think about the deeper relationship between the integrated assets and the Hydrographic Basin present there. In this way, we will raise some important points of reflection about the Basin and its potential, possibilities and problems with the aim of strengthening interrelations in educational approaches. Such approaches take into account aspects related to water, the environment, buildings and all their historical, cultural and social burden, as well as uses and the various possible readings and interpretations. Based on the understanding that this cultural landscape is constantly constructed, recreated and created, we intend to collaborate in the conception and recognition of the Pampulha Modern Ensemble as something multiple and diverse, considering all the implications of its richness and variety, both in terms of natural assets and in the assets built and inserted in its surroundings. We bring the problematization of dominant landscape and excluded landscape from Cosgrove's (1998) readings to understand the Pampulhas that exist and are closely related to the territory of the hydrographic basin. As a result of the discussions, we propose a geographical tour of the territory's ground, which communicates with the public issues of understanding the problems, possibilities and potential of the world cultural heritage of the Pampulha Modern Ensemble. We believe that this theoretical-methodological construct that leads the inhabitants to understand the territory makes it possible to create a broader reading of the landscape, beyond the architectural symbols.
