Olhares street art - investigação ação : de que forma abordagens de arte contemporânea nas escolas promovem a criatividade

In this study we intend to address a learning experience that was inspired by the intersection between public art and art education. We intend to make a reflection and analysis of pedagogical actions undertaken during this experience related to a theoretical framework to help us evaluate and improve the pedagogical and methodological strategies. The experience began with a visit to the exhibition "Street Art" at the AXA building in Porto. This visit was made with a group of children of different ages, accompanied by their parents, in May 2014. This exhibition brought new gazes for urban art. By recognizing obvious benefits such as proximity and accessibility, urban art, so rarely addressed in the classroom, may be an educational resource. Our intention in this study asks whether the contact with urban works of art can be motivating for students and facilitators of learning. We used a methodology of action research to approach urban art in visual art education lessons, exploring various art objects of the exhibition "Street Art" and the surrounding city with students. The study findings pointed out a positive response to initial questions

Espaço enquanto matéria da arte, espaço enquanto matéria do museu : (re)configurações da experiência site-specific

The central theme of this dissertation encompasses the importance of space, particularly the exhibition space, and how it has become part of the subject matter, as well as a medium in art. Some artistic practices of the 20th century, mainly in the 20s and 60s, both in Europe and the United States of America have provided the contextual foundation. The close relation between the architectural and exhibition spaces has become an intrinsic link to establish the existence of the three-dimensional work of art. The overarching importance of space in the contemporary artistic practice is visible through the creative and exhibition installation process, most notably in the artistic movements of Installation art and Site-specific. By carrying over the transformative contemporary art scene concepts to an institutional and museological context, paired with the inherent evolution of its practices, these have allowed for a convergence of the museological fields. With the intention of providing audiences a unique experience, curators and museologists have relied on site-specific practices. By inviting artists (typically featured in the current artistic scene) to develop projects specially thought for a specific museum space, this simultaneously allows for a dialogue between the work of art and the space. These temporary exhibitions have garnered the attention a more diverse audience. As a result sustainability and independence of the museums are a constant source of debate. The result of which has allowed for the broadening of the notions of how museums function and have integrated the audience as a main element of the strategies of the museum programming. The principles of the cultural marketing provide museums a clearer vision of the understanding of the different audience and their needs. Thus, the main goal of this study is to perceive the importance of the museum space in the relation to the artistic practice. While existing as a strategic resource of the museological program, insofar as having the ability to lure new audiences. It also matters to notice, if the fact of the artist working directly inside the museum, contribute to a narrowing of the artist/audience relationship, being the museum the mediation element

Estudo e tratamento de conservação e restauro da pintura Feto do artista Jorge Pinheiro

Followed by the opportunity of attending an internship at Argo – Art, Heritage and Culture, emerges the opportunity of studying and become responsible for the conservation and restoration of a painting by Jorge Pinheiro (Coimbra, 1931), whom is responsible for a wide artistic production that is vastly renowned and featured in particular and public collections, both nationally and internationally. This dissertation describes the study and the intervention of conservation and restoration of the contemporary painting Feto, executed in 1965 by Jorge Pinheiro, which was carried out during my internship of the Master’s in Science of Conservation, Restoration and Production of Contemporary Art, that took place in the company Argo, between November 2014 and April 2015. The issues in the conservation and restoration of contemporary art, related with the increasingly variety of materials that artists have been using since the beginning of the twentieth century, it’s also one of the main themes explored in this dissertation. From conservation and restoration, to the life and work of an artist, the following dissertation, besides describing in detail all the studies and steps that I took in the conservation and restoration of the oil on canvas painting, Feto (1965), it also reveals a closer look into the life and artistic career of Jorge Pinheiro
