Curator’s statement
The Bella Chaos! Naples is beautiful, chaotic, gritty and sublime. Too often just a quick stop for those headed to Capri, Pompeii or the Amalfi, Naples rewards those who come to discover her. The kind of city you dive into and embrace — it's superstitions, passions and heart are laid out for all who are willing to find it. Spend your days in some of Italy's most important museums or just wander the streets in search of street art (there's plenty) and the world's greatest pizza. And don't be surprised if people suddenly break out into song or the red-coated Scio Scio throws salt on you. It's all part of the charm.
