Abordagem Triangular: leitura de imagens de diferentes códigos estéticos e culturais

Abstract

We start in this text, an understanding of the Triangular Approach as a theory of interpretation of the universe of arts and cultures visual affiliated to post-colonial theory. The text is organized in four articulated topics. In the first topic, we introduce the Triangular Approach as an open theory, non-linear, which invites the art/educator into the gesture of redesigning. The second topic, we argue about the affiliation of the Triangular Approach to the post-colonial theory, emphasizing that the aesthetic dimension interconnects to the cultural dimension and that both are political. In the third topic, we deal with a version of the history of the Triangular Approach, highlighting the changes driven by such a theory in the field of national art/education. Finally, in the fourth topic, by way of conclusion, we argue that the Triangular Approach caused a more specific twist in the arts and visual cultures and, in the broader field of national art/education, defending the decolonization, proposing the democratization of art, its teaching and its history as a right for everyone.
