Teaching Art in the context of BNCC: is it necessary to reinvent teaching/learning in arts?

Abstract

This text includes reflection on the public policies that affect the process of reform of the curriculum with respect to teaching and learning, teacher training and the consequent implementation and exercise of the Art component of the curriculum. There is discussion about the potential obstacles to implementation of the Common Basic National Curriculum [BNCC in the Brazilian acronym], with emphasis on the visual arts, and with respect to: Art for Infant Education and Basic Teaching in 2017, and the subsequent interpretations of the BNCC; Art for Middle School in 2018, which is still under discussion. The constant changes, together with the speed with which they are implemented, without thorough discussion and without clear explanation of the reasoning behind them, causes confusion among Art specialists and others who are active in the teaching or learning of Visual Arts in schools.
