A arte e o grafite para além dos muros urbanos: por uma educação libertadora

Abstract

This research has as main objective to understand a graffiti art that articulates the teaching of visual arts and the urban socio-cultural context. In an attempt to expand the flavors, the living spaces and the exchange of experiences from a dialogical perspective and the recognition of cultural diversity, we propose to explore the possibilities of understanding this artistic expression, in addition to contributing to promote reflections on its educational potential, especially in public basic education network. For this, use as a methodological resource in bibliographic survey, text study and selection of images available on social networks - one more, others less important of urban art, art teaching and education. In this context, as a theoretical set for the development of this work, we used some important authors such as Paulo Freire, Ana Mae, Celso Gitahi and Maura Penna. In relation to the contributions of this research, it is possible to verify approximations of graffiti with an exhibition of popular education that distances the massification of pedagogical content and dominant, authoritarian and elitist discourses disseminated by the media used.
