Perspectivas das metodologias de pesquisa baseada em arte nas IES – Instituições de Ensino Superior

Abstract

This work reflects on the scope of Art-Based Research Methodologies in higher art courses. I investigate how methodologies such as IBA – Art-Based Research, PEBA – Art-Based Educational Research, IBA – Art-Based Research and also A/r/tography, among others, have managed to answer some questions such as reducing the distance between artistic production in academia and theoretical academic production. That is, how have art courses at undergraduate, master's and doctoral degrees in art received proposals for artistic works such as TCC – Course Conclusion Paper with these research methodologies? A film, a photo essay, a theatrical performance can be the TCC for several students with the same academic value as a paper, article or monograph in HEIs – Higher Education Institutions. This question also encourages me to better understand why there is still a big gap between artistic practice and its theoretical reflection, that is, artistic-pedagogical praxis in academia. Through bibliographical research of an inventory nature, called State of the Art research, during the years 2004 and 2019 in the editions of the magazine ANPED – National Association of postgraduate studies and research in education, in the Art and education working group, I began the present investigation. From there, I found very few articles that explored this novelty in terms of methodologies similar in their content and proposal and with different ways of naming such as ABER – arts-based educational research, ABR – arts-based forms of research, as well as to the other nomenclatures mentioned above, which notably have the same object of investigation with some distinctions in their specific objectives. After finding few publications on this topic, my objective became to identify why there are still so few publications on a topic so relevant to researchers in academia and, consequently, to identify how much space there is for investigations and publications when it comes to systematization. and application of Art-Based Educational Research Methodologies in different areas of knowledge in Higher Education.
