This paper discusses an experience that has investigated the relations and interfaces between different fields of knowledge, enabling reworks about the ideas around the Baroque period (and privileging ethnogeographical paradigms of interpretation). The methodology included: bibliographic research; problematization and group discussion on the conceptual categories involved; field works and data systematization. The paper gives a reading of iconographic elements of this historic period and is directed to graduate/post graduate students in interaction with elementary school teachers, allowing so a dialogue with the School Geography. In the research, it was privileged the reading of African descents’ influence in the consolidation of a unique cultural substrate (from postulations that assume that the incorporation of the African component in the understanding of Brazilian culture remains a strategically question to understand in national scale and that still requires more careful analysis). The Baroque mixed profane and sacred characteristics and still reverberates in the current reality nowadays. The investigation placed in the evidence particularly the cross-cultural mixes which represented then codes for amalgam a new cultural universe, full of dynamism.
