OSINSKI, Dulce Regina Baggio and SIMAO, Giovana. Emma Kleè Koch e as exposições de arte infantil: rituais coloridos pela educação moderna (1949-1952). Rev. Bras. Hist. Educ [online]. 2014, vol.14, n.01, pp.195-222. ISSN 2238-0094.
This article analyses children's art exhibitions organized by the Polish educator and artist Emma Kleè Koch (1904-1975), who lived in Curitiba, Brazil. These exhibitions were held as part of the actions by the Arts Education Department of the Education and Culture Secretariat of Paraná State (1949-1952), under the administration of Erasmo Pilotto, an intellectual and educator who identified with the ideals of the New School trends. Using official documents, exhibition signature lists, government projects, government platform, newspaper articles and other writings of the educator as sources, we seek to detect the relationships that pervade the idea of modernity and are at the confluence between the fields of politics, education and art.
