Pasantía. El arte de explorar. Laboratorios de artes plásticas y musicales en la IED Florentino González

Abstract

From a young age, the need to communicate arises, to express our thoughts, feelings and ideas through different artistic languages. The first doodles; the first brush strokes; The rhythm in our movements are some of the ways that boys and girls use to communicate and represent what surrounds them; Given that art is a language that enhances the expressive and reflective capacity, and strengthens the development of imagination, creativity and the aesthetic sense, these actions that can be considered “simple” begin to generate a significant difference within the process of learning and creativity. This is why we consider it extremely important to educate for art; generate spaces in which artistic initiation processes can be carried out, where the main elements are exploration and play, and where boys and girls can be in a space of constant inquiry, search and recognition, highlighting that the objective The main thing is not the results, or the learning of techniques, but rather generating motivation and curiosity about art. Under this premise, this pedagogical proposal has as its main axis the articulation of two artistic languages; music and the plastic arts, through spaces called artistic laboratories. According to the Nidos - Art in Early Childhood program of the District Institute of the Arts – Idartes: Artistic laboratories are proposed as scenarios for experimental artistic creation based on interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary practices, focused on dialogue and the construction of theoretical-practical knowledge, through meeting scenarios for participatory and collaborative creation, where the autonomous work of the participants leads to the discovery and appropriation of said knowledge. This decision is made by the need to present to the students of the first, third, fourth and fifth grades of the IED Florentino González, a first approach to the musical and plastic language, allowing them to know; identify and use the tools provided through activities and spaces that allow creation, that enhance their imagination, that raise awareness and that generate learning during the established meetings. For this process to be successful, the creation of stimulating artistic spaces is contemplated where the relationship with tools in the musical and plastic area is facilitated to promote the students' thinking and the desire to explore. These spaces are nourished by different strategies for musical and plastic teaching, artistic references and audiovisual information. The experience, context and interests of the students are taken into account; In order to do so, work from the dimensions of their childhood development: Communication, the body, interaction with the environment and the aesthetic. To conclude, this proposal seeks to give them the opportunity to express themselves through the arts, and also generate safe spaces for the expression of their emotions; working at an interpersonal and intrapersonal level in boys and girls, having spaces for coexistence and awareness with others and, finally, generating curiosity so that later, in their learning process, they can put into practice the knowledge acquired and continue investigating, knowing and learning from them.
