From 2 to 28 February 2026, Fondazione Guglielmo Marconi and the National Committee Marconi.150 present Codex – the echo of wireless becomes digital thought, a group exhibition that aims to build a cultural and spiritual bridge between the origins of modern communication and the ethical challenges of Artificial Intelligence. Featuring works by Quayola, Donatella Nicolini, and Mamà Dots.
The project was conceived for Bologna, a city of science and thought, and takes shape in the Former Church of San Mattia as a space for contemporary reflection, in dialogue with Arte Fiera and ART CITY Bologna.
Within this context, the exhibition presents itself as an authoritative and coherent cultural project, capable of connecting scientific heritage, artistic research, and ethical reflection, reaffirming a central principle: technology has meaning only when it remains in the service of humanity, language, and conscience.
