A museum-studio in a former ceramics factory where architecture, tropical gardens and Francisco Brennand’s work form a single environment. Meu Recife places the site within the editorial thread “Recife · Brennand · Várzea”. This reading first establishes the documented cultural role, then keeps it separate from mutable hours, admission and exhibition programming.
