No entrecruzamento de linguagens...: a arte e o corpo para pensar a educação e a formação do humano

Abstract

This study aims at starting a discussion about the biographical body (Danis Bois) and the imaginary (Gilbert Durand) in the area of education. This theme results from a research whose objective was to bring new ideas to reflect on human. This paper describes a part of the study to reflect the intertwining between arts and bodies as languages which may trigger education and human development. The biographical body has been seen as a source that hosts the history of human beings whose gestures spread a singular and plural story. It should be understood as a subtle and sensitive matter which is as important as pragmatic and utilitarian matters. It still needs to be revealed by artistic languages or, at least, to use other rationalities, rather than merely the hegemonic and instituted ones.
