MUnA: vestígios da memória. Materializações visuais do cotidiano

Abstract

This work brings forth possible dialogues among individual, collective, and site memories with the Museu de Arte Universitário of Universidade Federal de Uberlândia. Thus, the concepts of memory are articulated, exploring how their studies intersect with history and how they navigate the formation of images, whether mental or physical. In order to comprehend these aspects, the texts of Maurice Halbwachs, Jacques Le Goff, Pierre Nora, Frances Yates, and Michael Pollack serve as a theoretical foundation for the historical, social, and cultural developments of memory within this arts research. Focusing on a specific location and exploring mediated relationships between memory and everyday life in the museum, investigations are established regarding the practical visual production, involving the examination of different languages such as drawing, painting, and installation. To achieve this, descriptions are provided concerning the creative process, material selection, connections between theoretical and visual references, exhibition assembly procedures, and ultimately, the reflective results.
