Abstract

ARAUJO, Hanna Talita Gonçalves Pereira de. Aesthetic education in the artistic creative processes of the wordless picturebook. Perspectiva [online]. 2018, vol.36, n.1, pp.94-115. ISSN 2175-795X.  https://doi.org/10.5007/2175-795X.2018v36nlp94.

This paper intends to discuss artistic and creative processes considering books designed specifically for children. The data and considerations in this text were part of my doctoral research in visual arts at Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Brazil,which analyzed the processes of artists creating visual narratives and the reading of these visual images by preschool children. Several interviews with Brazilian and French artists were conducted in which they narrate their intentions, objectives and ideas at the moment of creation, considering the child. And to support it, I have used two different but interrelated frames of reference i.e., the writings of E. H. Gombrich and Fayga Ostrower. It is essential to understand the creative process in order to comprehend the finished work, as a result of questionings, choices and changes throughout the course. In this sense, through the images it becomes visible the intention to offer young readers images that instigate the thought, feed the imagination and educate the eye to other visual languages

Keywords : Creative Process; Visual Narrative; Aesthetic Education; Wordless Picturebook; Childhood.
