Abstract

To turn art education classes participatory, requires more than a simple will to do it that way. Could it be possible for us to shake the power and hierarchy stablished on a classical art classroom between teachers and students? How could the study of participatory art practices contribute to rethink procedures in art education on that matter? In this article, I recognize participatory ideologies’ utopias and the risk of their reproduction in art and school context. I search through understand, how we, as art teachers, could think on different ways of understanding and dealing with participation in school programs, with a special focus on students, and class planning. We need to realize the concept of participation beyond the activity-passivity binomial, understanding the complexity of the problem, and asking for more questioning in art education field.
