Experiências, memórias e narrativas: “tia” Lázara, de quem são aqueles desenhos que colori?

Abstract

This narrative produces reflections regarding children's drawings in formal education, problematizing aspects historically constructed in the fields of visual arts education and pedagogy. The shared reflections result from one of the experiences lived by the author in his Post-doctoral Internship, developed in the Postgraduate Program in Art and Visual Culture, at the Faculty of Visual Arts, at the Federal University of Goiás. More specifically, in the subject Fundamentals of Art in Education, for students of the Undergraduate course in Visual Arts at the same institution, which produced exercises to remember personal experiences lived in Art classes in basic education and to materialize the remembrances through letters “addressed” to someone in a distant future. The considerations produced came from the letter written by the author-Intern who, in contrast, “addressed” to a person from his distant past, his primary school teacher, inquiring about the origin of the drawings he had just colored.
