CONTRIBUIÇÕES DE LYGIA CLARK PARA O ENSINO DE ARTE

Abstract

This study presents an analysis of the artist Lygia Clark and her research on the relationship of the body with/as the artwork, seeking to emphasize sensitization, perception, and the recovery of bodily senses through the visual arts. The central objective was participatory research, wherein the lead researcher acted as a proposer/mediator with a group of adolescents, students of the “Som & Vida” project in Campo Grande-MS. By introducing propositions based on Clark's works, the group was able to approach the sensitization and artistic appreciation sought by the artist. The methodology of this undergraduate thesis was developed through bibliographic and participatory research, involving a didactic sequence of 10 class hours conducted during the “Mandatory Internship in Non-Formal Spaces.” Following the analysis of this experience, a second didactic sequence proposal was designed based on Clark's works and in dialogue with her contemporaries, presented as a Course Project linked to this thesis.
