Naples in delirium for the exhibition on Pino Daniele: an explosion of visitors overwhelms Palazzo Reale The exhibition dedicated to Pino Daniele, inaugurated last March 19 at Palazzo Reale in Naples, is conquering the masses with a success that is literally overwhelming the city.
With over 20.000 visitors in less than two months, including young people, school groups, families, residents and tourists, the exhibition dedicated to one of the most beloved Italian and international artists confirms itself as an irreverent cultural phenomenon, open until July 6.
A huge turnout of spectators and school groups
For the first time, the story of one of the most important singer-songwriters in Italian music is told through a rich mosaic of audiovisual content, authorial and amateur materials, unpublished documents, personal objects and instruments. Between scenographic installations and "many rarities" that document the artist's entire musical, intimate and human experience, Naples is transformed into a den of surprises, with record influxes on weekends and a river of reservations from schools and associations.

The Pino Daniele exhibition seems to have attracted a lot of people, but I wonder if it will be sustainable in the long run. It is a nice event but I don't know if all these visitors will return in the future.
