Narrativas orais: história oral e pesquisa sobre ensino de arte

Abstract

During research to write our master's thesis, which had as its object of study the teaching methodologies of artists who are also teachers, it was necessary to define an interview method in order to access oral sources. The construction of these sources was justified due to the limited bibliography available on the artists studied and their practices in art teaching. Added to this, the possibility of collecting knowledge directly from these subjects, and from others who lived with them, brought to the research the particularities of orality, as well as its analysis. The method we chose was Oral History, with special emphasis on oral narratives. We followed as guidance the concepts developed by teachers, Alessandro Portelli and his understanding of Oral History as discourse and Jorge Larrosa Bondía, and his approach to narrative and identity.
