T Travel: Modern Masters in Naples
in The New York Times Magazine by Eric Konigsberg, 23 September 2007
The Southern Italian city of Naples once had a reputation as a den of pickpockets and thieves, something it has overcome as it has cultivated its image as a center for cutting edge modern art. New museums dedicated to contemporary art have opened, and smaller galleries feature video displays such as Sergio Prego's "Flicker." Konigsberg explores the growing interest in local artists, while noting that collectors and casual fans will find most dealers clustered around the Piazza dei Martiri, a square he sees as an Italian mix of Madison Avenue and the Lower East Side.
