Da imagética das redes sociais na atualidade à construção de um novo "olhar-se" entre estudantes do ensino fundamental. Orientador: Dr. Marcos Alberto Andruchak. 2023. 126f. Dissertação (Mestrado Profissional em Artes - Profartes) - Centro de Ciências Humanas, Letras e Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/57562This study focuses on a practice in art education directed toward visual culture, where the main goal is to promote critical thinking about media images nowadays and their impacts on adolescents' comprehension. It begins with a historical perspective on the variation of beauty standards, emphasizing the need for teaching image literacy that encompasses not only social and historical aspects but, especially, a critical perspective. Such an analysis is grounded in the perception of beauty developed by philosopher Roger Scruton; Paula Sibilia's view on the spectacularization of existence; and the critical examination of imagery on social media, specifically Instagram, in comparison with the photographs of the artist Sebastião Salgado. The methodology of this investigation is based on action research, with the practice conducted in a case study grounded in Ana Mae Barbosa's Triangular Approach. This approach guides an investigative foundation based on active student participation, promoting dialogues and critical analyses. The foundational basis is the visual perception derived from photography as an artistic language, facilitating the production of images through a photography contest. The aim was to elucidate the question: Is it possible to teach the appreciation of beauty based on the values that individuals consider fundamental? This study seeks to develop in participants an awareness of how they feel when confronted with images on social media; investigate the possibility of bringing about a change in those negative feelings; foster a critical perception of these images; analyze the potential for a change in perception, constructing a path that allows for a shift in the way one perceives and looks at oneself.Acesso AbertoArte-educação - cultura visual - imagens midiáticasImagens midiáticas - redes sociais - ensino da leitura de imagens - ensino fundamentalmasterThesisCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES::ARTES
