Abstract:
The present article aims at presenting the conceptions of a science teacher, as well as of a group of 33 students in the 9th grade of Fundamental Education in a public school of São Paulo state, about the interdisciplinarity between Art and Science. In both teaching and research activities, students were required to answer how they see the correlation of Art with other school subjects, more specifically Science. For the collection of data, interviews and semi-structured questionnaires were used, and the material was analyzed according to Bardin's proposal. In the answers provided by the teacher and the students, the need has been detected for interdisciplinary practices to expand and deconstruct mistaken knowledge that they have regarding Art and Science.
