Further information
With this new experience you can immerse yourself in the magnetic atmosphere of the exhibition "Polyphonies" inside the rediscovered Vasariana Sacristy.
Here, the sixteen tables by Giorgio Vasari, which remained for decades kept in the deposits of Capodimonte, finally shine together in their place of origin.
Below this sixteenth-century horizon, the vibrant response of the twentieth century lights up: a selection of works with a biblical subject signed by giants such as Chagall, Kokoschka, De Stefano and others.
At the center of the Sacristy, you can admire five precious showcases that house the monumental Biblia Sacra made in 1967 by Salvador Dalí, a visual pivot around which styles and eras revolve.
The journey continues in the Sala del Lavabo, where the voice of contemporaneity questions the sacred through the vision of masters of our time, finding a powerful metaphor in an ancient marble sink injured by time and deprived of its frontal decoration.
This experience is part of the MuDD project - Museo Diocesano Diffuso, an initiative that enhances the religious heritage of the historic center of Naples through the reopening of the places, the involvement of the community and the young people of the territory, with an accessible and shared narrative.
With a single ticket you can thus embrace the entire monumental complex: from the majestic church with its two famous Caracciolo chapels and the Di Somma chapel, to the wonderful Vasariana Sacristy and the two evocative cloisters, losing yourself in a pole of excellence where memory and creativity meet.
