One of the key places in Naples if u love modern art. I have been there a couple of times over the last 6/9 months, to see Escher first, and then Joan Miró. Both exhibitions were very well arranged and provided a comprehensive overview of both artists. Specifically, I found out something I didn't know about Miró, e.g. that his very peculiar artistic expressions, were not limited just to canvas, that sometimes he liked to burn to create "special effects", but also to collage, technique where he utilized the most different materials. The exhibition should still be on through February I guess, so please go see it, it's worth the money. I also enjoyed Escher, but the fact that I had already seen him years before at the Chiostro del Bramante in Rome, didn't give me the same magic as with Miró. Currently, besides Miró, they also have a Banksy and more artists on display, in case u, like me, enjoy street art. I'm giving 4 stars rather than 5 because 1) differently than in the past, either time I went over the last year, payment by ATM or credit card wasn't allowed, and 2) I would definitely recommend opening up a coffee bar in the lobby, where people could sit down and relax after visiting the different art exhibitions.

This is a great museum in the beautiful Napoli. We came here to see the MC Escher expo and it did not disappoint. The staff is very friendly at helpful. The bathrooms are clean, just like the rest of the museum. I suggest if you plan on coming here and having the audio-guide option, you bring your own headphones, otherwise you need to hold the device to your ear like a tekephone and it gets tiring, and it's uncomfortable if you want to take pictures, etc. Parkinv is a pain so if possible, take public transportation.

Pan - Palazzo delle arti a Napoli. Bansky and post street art. The exhibition is quite disappointing due to very few works shown. I don't think it is worth the ticket price. What a shame profiting of artists' works without offering a wider perspective of the main artist. Why entitling after Banksy the whole exhibition when there are also other artists' works involved on the show, such as Savethewall, Mr Brainwash and Obey. I didn't noticed the Naples Banksy's presence either.....mmmhhh!

A tired building with poor air conditioning and a grumpy security guard. We wandered around in a hot afternoon unsure of the art but the guides there were fantastic and approached us and gave us a personal tour of all the art in English; explaining the artists and the stories behind the pieces and even allowing our children time to interact with the interactive art. The museum was free and definitely worth a visit if you have a spare hour.

Currently there are two artist exhibitions going on, each with their own floor. Very erotic sculptures depicting various adult themed activities and positions (see photos) as well as unique pottery and paintings. There was no entrance fee for us, not sure if this is normal. Old building with no air conditioning and questionable lighting, but we had an entertaining time wondering through none the less.

Opens at 10 and not 09:30. Some story about the Andy Warhol exhibit opening at 09:30 and the other wing not. Come on people, get to work in time. That is what we do in Europe. Interesting street photography exhibition. The place is run down. No toilet paper in the toilets? They are clean though. Guess no one wants to use them
