This course proposes a critical reflection on the experience of audiences in museums. The theme is accessibility in museums, with an emphasis on the concept of multisensory experiences. Strategies for educational curation in exhibitions, focused on resources that enhance the audience's sensory experience, will also be presented and discussed.
The course includes a case study of the Museum of Modern Art of São Paulo (MAM), analyzing educational and curatorial practices that challenge disciplinary norms still present in museums, with the aim of promoting new ways of experiencing these spaces.
Designed for professionals and students of education, museology, visual arts, art history, and related fields, the course is also aimed at anyone interested in understanding museums as spaces for learning, experimentation, and social transformation.
