Abstract

What theoretical-methodological arguments can favor rapprochement between children and Contemporary Art? In this reflection, we aim to argue in favor of proposals for working with Contemporary Art in kindergarten and Early Childhood Education centers. We carried out a bibliographical investigation into the children's actions and the characteristics of Contemporary Art. Therefore, we selected from Base Nacional Comum Curricular (National Common Curricular Base) - BNCC (2018) ten learning and development objectives of Early Childhood Education and brought them closer to Contemporary Art. Subsequently, we presented four arguments that can support the practices of Early Childhood Education teachers in terms of working with Contemporary Art, and then, we exemplified these arguments with works by contemporary artists. Finally, we highlighted the importance of working with Contemporary Art in Early Childhood Education.
