Professores no Museu de Arte Murilo Mendes: leituras e significados no espaço museal

Abstract

The discussions in nowadays about museums are very consistent in relation to the educational dimension in those institutes. Based on, mainly, the fact that, to fulfil it’s social role of education, must be on condition of formulators of critical arguments that take your visitors to reflections, doubts, questions, conflicts, confrontation. In order to achieve this goal is necessary that are former democratic areas, permeable, to stand for dialectic relationship with your visitors and community. To understand the process of sharing or exchanging the professor establishes with museum in a construction of perceptions and understanding of museum space and of their collections represent. Therefore, try to undertand the own museum like a educational area, in a perspective of liable who educates. In light of this context, I looked know the readings that teachers doing of museum space – specifically Murilo Mendes Museus of Art – UFJF – and meanings and redimensioning that produce to visits on exhibition of archives’s objects in this founding. The methodology employed is describe like of quality approach, being used as tools of research the participant observation, the field diary, the interviews semi-structured and the interpretation of the data collected. The theoretical knowledge for the research conducted was found, mainly, in that work of such writers who devoted to the field of education in museums, like Mário Chagas, Francisco Régis Lopes Ramos, Júnia Sales Pereira, Silvia Alderoqui e Constanza Pedersoli e Ignacio Díaz Balerdi. To conclude this investigation, I have seen that the readings who the teachers do of museum area will be linked a part of their life story, the pedagogical practice, but also that the significations produced will be modify and extending as those they feel invited to visit the area and feel comfortable for enjoy.
