Art workshop La Scarabattola

Between tradition and modernity there is space, in Naples, the art workshop “La Scarabattola”, born in the second half of the nineties from the work and ideas of the brothers Salvatore, Emanuele and Raffaele Scuotto and their collaborators.

Artisans, artists, cultural promoters, the group of the Scuotto brothers moves between the folkloristic aspects of Neapolitan culture and the need to unhinge the clichés, updating, for example, the crib art, finding inspiration among the squares and alleys where their workshop is located; or reflecting on the nature of things, on the emotional value and narrative function of objects; looking, again, at art as a possibility of communication.
