The preface written by Imanol Aguirre for the 7th edition of “A Imagem no Ensino da Arte” would already be sufficient for the accomplishment of the purposes that move this text. However, even acknowledging the sensitive and intelligible precision which Aguirre defines the work of Ana Mae Barbosa and, specifically, the Abordagem Triangular, we will follow our intent maintaining the interlocution with his beautiful text. We will present here a reading of the epistemo-critical systematization created by Ana Mae Barbosa, in its aesthetic and ethical dimensions, emphasizing, justly reading, one of its integrative actions. For this, will be incorporated into this conversation, authors such as Paulo Freire and Walter Benjamin, among other key thinkers to the reflections exposed here on education, utopia and resistance.
