the term scappatidicasa has always been used negatively, to indicate someone who moves without roots, method, or responsibility. today, however, this definition takes on a new meaning for me, more complex and, in part, more provocative.

“scappatodicasa” is a young person with a free attitude, countless friendships and connections, and often does not always live in the same home. scappatidicasa are dreamers, open to the world and everything it can offer, aware that they can change it, and capable, every time, of asking themselves:

“why not?” it is precisely from this condition of openness, contamination, and dialogue that the artistic and cultural movement “scappatidicasa” takes shape and gains substance, able to unite different languages, generations, and sensibilities, and which has found in fondazionemarionanni a space for exchange and leading to the presentation of their work at museovirgola.

here the arts are not separate, not classified, and do not follow a predetermined code.

painting, photography, sound, word, moving image, matter, art, and light coexist, because enchantment arises when all the arts come together as one, transforming everything into a luminous, universal poem, poetryofuniversallight.

the projects that were on display at museovirgola during artcity 2026 in bologna are twenty-one autonomous visions, different from one another, yet united by the same tension: to make a thought concrete. each work affirms a position, speaks, and constructs a way of being in the world and inhabiting the present through form and matter.

at the center is not the artistic object, but the act of making a conscious choice, as a taking of responsibility for what one wishes to express.

the exhibition thus becomes a space of active relationship, where the work does not end in itself, but opens to encounter and the transformation of the gaze.

fondazionemarionanni supports young people not by indicating a direction, but by bringing light. a light that does not impose, dazzle, or simplify. a light that accompanies, making visible the emotion of nothingness. scappatidicasa is an educational and cultural act.

fondazionemarionanni is an incubator of ideas that welcomes and values young designers, giving life to new visions and shaping individuals capable of uniting technique, thought, and beauty, guiding them along their path toward the professional world.

it is a permanent laboratory where young designers can give shape to their intuitions, finding tools, materials, and skills to transform them into real projects.

the incubator supports the birth of new ideas by providing resources, training, and opportunities for dialogue with masters and professionals, fostering cross-pollination between knowledge and disciplines. here every project is followed step by step: from conception to prototyping, from experimentation with innovative technologies to the refinement of artisanal skills, up to production and collaboration with companies, laboratories, and creative entities capable of turning them into tangible experiences and products.

the incubator is not only a physical space but a living community that believes in the sharing of knowledge, the sustainability of processes, and the social value of design. a place to nurture talents and cultivate a new generation of designers capable of imagining and building the future.
