    Oficina Brennand, South America
  Bairro da Várzea s/nº - Recife - Pernambuco, PE           
"Mestre dos Sonhos" Francisco de Paula Coimbra de Almeida Brennand nasceu a 11 de junho de 1927, na cidade do Recife, capital do Estado de Pernambuco. Em novembro de 1971, o artista começou a reconstruir a velha Cerâmica São João da Várzea, fundada pelo seu pai em 1917. Esse conjunto, encontrado em ruínas, deu início a um colossal projeto de esculturas cerâmicas que deveriam povoar os espaços internos e externos do ambiente. Hoje, após mais de 34 anos de trabalho intenso e obsessivo, confrontamo-nos com esse complexo escultórico, cujo significado dá relevo a um sentido cosmogônico e, ao mesmo tempo, visionário de Francisco Brennand.
