Casa das Rosas — Espaço Haroldo de Campos de Poesia e Literatura, is a museum and cultural center in the Paraíso neighborhood of São Paulo, Brazil.
History[edit]
Designed and built by Francisco de Paula Ramos de Azevedo, the classic French style mansion was the Ramos de Azevedo family home until 1985.[1] The building was designed in 1930, and construction was completed in 1935.[2]
On 22 October 1985 the Casa das Rosas was listed by Condephaat as a landmark. After a renovation, the Casa das Rosas was reopened on 19 September 1995.[1]
In 2004 Casa das Rosas changed its name to include Espaço Haroldo de Campos de Poesia e Literatura (English: Haroldo de Campos Poetry and Literature Space). The Casa das Rosas has a legal mandate to:
- promote and disseminate poetry and literature in general,
- preserve the Haroldo de Campos Collection (donated by his family),
- preserve the building itself.[1]
Operated by the Secretary of Culture of the state of São Paulo, approximately 80,000 visitors a year participate in courses, workshops, exhibitions, and presentations of various kinds at the Casa das Rosas.[1]
