The present article analyzes the role of the cultural mediator as a proponent and creator of authorial actions within the exhibition space, as part of the scope of educational practices in art exhibits. Based on the concept of appropriation and conceptual art, analogies are drawn between the creative process of the artist and the educator using Marcel Duchamp and Hélio Oiticica's artistic practices as a reference. Just as a number of artists use appropriation to create their works, educators would activate the works or exhibition space with their actions by enhancing the fruition of the public. This practice, which is similar to artistic creation, takes place via the appropriation of several factors that allow for the authorship of the educator in a process of rewriting. This way, the way educators create authorial actions in visual arts exhibitions is investigated by a discussion of how mediation can become an authorial artistic process.
