Procesos de identización en el arte contemporáneoconstruir una identidad colectiva a través de una cartografía identitaria en la red

Abstract

Based on the proposals of the new museology and heritage education the aim is to deepen, from an educational perspective, in the identization processes in contemporary art. This study aims to show contemporary art as a tool for the generation of collective identities, thus fitting in the social and cultural function of art that arises from the theoretical positions. For this purpose, we have designed an educational action with a key activity: a virtual identity mapping where participants create a map of collective identity lattice them from individual heritage that they share and discuss together. For the design and development of this research it has been used the ethnographic method that starts from the observation of a data collection and content analysis of qualitative type for the interpretation of the data. From all the information they are obtained two main results: the first one, the conscious construction of a group identity, where the worked heritage elements have a place and, the second one, the importance of affectivity to create identity ties. The conclusions of this work are directed to the value of educational mediation in the processes of patrimonialization and identization, as an element to produce a change in people and as a context for research. Thus the contributions made by this research focus on the processes of identification as a next step to patrimonialisation through an educational proposal that emphasizes the links between people and objects.
