This article is part of a research that problematizes the encounter between art and education in Brazil in the last two decades. It sought to learn how the notions of aesthetics of existence and difference, coming respectively from Michel Foucault and Gilles Deleuze’s theories, became part of the art pedagogy in that period. This research was based on articles from academic journals that guide practical or theoretically the notions of aesthetics of existence and difference. It was noticed a recommendation of these concepts as tools for overcoming the educational crisis, but also a patent impossibility of establishing them as theoretical ballast of a project of social change.
