Aim
Transforming the house of Dino Campana, one of the most visionary poets of nineteenth-century Italy, into exhibition spaces that evoke his memory and rekindle the spark that inspired him; not simply a museum, but a space for growth and participation. House of Poetry is an invitation to create an architectural intervention capable of engaging with the present while remembering the past, and of generating cultural and social value beyond the boundaries of the site, establishing Marradi as an international epicenter of contemporary poetry.
