Abstract

The obstinacy of the Brazilian artist Francisco Brennand made it possible to raise, in 1971, the Oficina [Workshop] Brennand on the ruins of a brickyard. In this testimonial, he tells us how transformed that in a unique place in the world. The workshop is constituted by a monumental architectonic set of great originality, in constant process of mutation, where the opus is associated to architecture to give shape to an abyssal,  Dionysian,  subterraneous, obscure, sexual and religious universe. The presence of Brennand in a continuous creation work gives the workshop an unused characteristic, identifying it as an institution intrinsically alive and with a dynamics that makes the routes of
architecture and opus unpredictable, in last 40 years.
