SOUZA, Michely Calciolari; BALISCEI, João Paulo  and  TERUYA, Teresa Kazuko. Visual representation of liquid modernity: what do the mannequins tell us?. Educação. Santa Maria [online]. 2015, vol.40, n.2, pp.361-374. ISSN 1984-6444.  https://doi.org/10.5902/1984644414198.

The flow of images, technological transformations and the body and beauty cult are same characteristics that spot the contemporaneity. Pictures, illustrations and images in the media diffuse models that represent us and in which we can identify ourselves. It was an objective to analyze how we are represented by the mannequins from the stores. For that, it was developed a count of mannequins in a mall inMaringácity, Paraná. It was realized that the mannequins represent, in their majority, the colored or white people. It was verified that the number of mannequins of different race colors do not correspond to the number of Brazilians that consider themselves black people, brown people , yellow people or red people. Based on this, it was discussed the importance of teacher's training to the visual aspects of the contemporaneity.

Keywords : Education; Liquid Modernity; Cultural Pedagogies.
