Casa da Xilogravura

Casa da Xilogravura, Woodcut museum in Campos do Jordão, Brazil.

Casa da Xilogravura is a museum of woodcut printing in Campos do Jordão, housed since 1987 in a building from 1928 that was formerly the Mosteiro de São João. Its 30 rooms display original Brazilian woodcuts and also introduce lithography, linocut, offset and other printing techniques, alongside a library of 2,000 books.

The Casa da Xilogravura opened on 17 July 1987, founded and still directed by Antonio Fernando Costella, with Leda Campestrin Costella as technical director. It occupies a building erected in 1928 that had housed the Mosteiro de São João, a Benedictine nuns' monastery, and now also serves as headquarters of Editora Mantiqueira. It stands in Jaguaribe, the neighbourhood where Campos do Jordão was founded in 1874, facing the square of the Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Saúde.

The museum occupies a 1928 building that once housed the Benedictine Mosteiro de São João, in Jaguaribe, the neighbourhood where Campos do Jordão was founded in 1874. Its garden holds the concrete tomb of Chiquinho, the dog whose image became the logo of Editora Mantiqueira, the publisher that runs the museum. Temporary exhibitions and courses accompany the permanent collection.

The museum faces Avenida Eduardo Moreira da Cruz 295 and opens onto the corner of the praça of the Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Saúde, in the Jaguaribe district. The 1928 building holds 30 rooms, so plan enough time to walk through them in order. Temporary exhibitions, courses and other cultural events run alongside the permanent collection.

In the garden stands a small concrete monument marking the grave of Chiquinho, the dog who inspired the logo of Editora Mantiqueira, the publishing house that maintains the museum. The museum's library holds 2,000 books plus collections of newspapers, magazines and cordel leaflets.
