MUSEU HISTÓRICO E ARTÍSTICO DE NAVIRAÍ - Arquitetura para a preservação da memória e fortalecimento da cidadania

Abstract

The work proposes the study of an architectural project for a Historical and Artistic Museum of Naviraí (MS), located in Mato Grosso do Sul, a municipality near Brazil's border with Paraguay. The region's characteristics, particularly the traditional indigenous presence and Japanese immigration, coexist with an agro-export-based socioeconomic structure. The primary justification for the proposal of a museum in the city stems from the absence of a public space to house the heritage of the Rio Ivinhema Archaeological Site, located on the banks of the Córrego do Touro. The research for the architectural project was conducted through a historical and bibliographic survey of the city's museological needs. The museum proposal aims to bring to the region a cultural and educational space designed to preserve local memory, while fostering education, culture, and tourism.
