Paula Ramos de Oliveira, Denis Domeneghetti Badia, Ivan Fortunato

• The paper discusses the trifold relationship between cultural industry, childhood and education, through a dialogue between these elements. It is highlighted the cultural industry’s formula of reducing art to consumer products through a simplification of the imaginary in order to sustain itself and perpetuate the capitalist market. Education emerges as resistance, whereby art must be presented as a form of aesthetic fulfillment, development of creativity and critical thinking, presenting children with other ways of seeing and living the world.
