Resumen

Se remite en primer lugar a algunas de las aportaciones de Lev Vygotski al desarrollo creativo y a la educación, consideradas como puntos de apoyo para un reenfoque de la educación artística: la mediación perceptiva, el juego y la imaginación, y la concepción dramática de la mente. A continuación se sugieren algunas vías de desarrollo de estos planteamientos para una didáctica científico-artística, conectando el arte con: 1) reaprender a ver y percibir el mundo, y 2) aprender a construir la realidad y a construirse, “a escribirse”. Por último se hace una llamada a un reenfoque de la educación artística que contribuya a compensar el sesgo educativo que ha despojado al currículum de buena parte de los componentes, esenciales en otros tiempos, de desarrollo de la personalidad.

Abstract

First reference is made to some of Lev Vygotsky's contributions to creative development and art that support a new approach to art education: perceptual mediation, play and imagination, and the dramatic conception of the mind. Then the paper suggests various developmental courses for these issues in order to achieve scientific-artistic didactics, connecting art with 1) re-learning how to see and perceive the world, 2) learning to construct reality and to construct oneself, “write oneself”. Finally, attention is drawn to the need to adopt a new approach to art education; one that helps balance the educational bias that has stripped the curriculum of a good deal of the components —formely essential—of personality development.
