Abstract

The article faces the question: can schoolar art offer opportunities to overcome uncritical, colonized and Eurocentric whiteness, as a unique epistemology? Part of the exhibition “Afro-Atlantic Histories” and bibliographies that reflect on profanation, transgression, decoloniality and the schoolar. It is organized in three parts. The first discusses the concepts of uncritical and critical whiteness and Eurocentrism. The second discusses the profaning potential of art. In the third part, it reflects on the possibilities of schoolar art as an invitation to profanate and experience more ethical and responsible ways of relating to the Other in a structurally racist country.
