Town grid
The centre is laid out in regular blocks and squares. It is typical of sertão towns and reads clearly against the sparse lines of the surrounding countryside.

The map
Exu lies in the far west of Pernambuco, in the semi-arid sertão of north-eastern Brazil, close to the escarpment of the Chapada do Araripe. From above, the town is a compact grid of streets and squares. Around it stretch the dry lands of the interior, crossed by roads and seasonal watercourses.
The town is famous as the birthplace of Luiz Gonzaga, the singer and accordionist known across Brazil as the king of baião. His songs gave the sertão a voice, and Exu keeps his memory alive with a museum and a strong attachment to his music.
An Exu map poster shows a small town set against a large, open landscape. The regular blocks of the centre, the roads leaving for the neighbouring states and the nearby plateau edge give the sheet a sense of distance and scale. It is a tribute to a place much of Brazil knows through song.
The centre is laid out in regular blocks and squares. It is typical of sertão towns and reads clearly against the sparse lines of the surrounding countryside.
The Chapada do Araripe rises nearby. On the poster, its presence shows in how roads and settlements stop at, or wind along, the plateau's edge.
Long roads run out across the dry interior toward Ceará and the rest of Pernambuco. They draw a few decisive lines across otherwise quiet ground.
