The Role of the Artist as Mediator, is a degree project in the Internship modality, a modality chosen from a need to be part of the places where art happens in my city and the opportunity to carry it out in the Santa Fe Gallery. the experiences throughout the internship that contributed to my training as a student and soon, as a professional. I consider this document a guiding tool for future interns. Understanding Mediation as an exercise of approach to the Plastic Arts through languages ​​relevant to the public and pedagogical experiments that allow establishing a conversation with the other, to reconstruct meanings and thus generate closer links between the proposals on display and the viewer. . This exercise gave rise to learning of pedagogical tools for mediation, the study of differential populations and also questions about the "de-academization" of the languages ​​of the proposals, for likewise, the teaching of new concepts, the profession of Mediation as bridge of communication between artists and the various audiences.
