At a glance
Alfonso Artiaco Gallery presents works across multiple media, tracing a curatorial arc from 1986 to 2016. The gallery has established itself as a significant venue for contemporary art in the Campania region, moving through several locations as its programme expanded.
History
The gallery opened in 1986 at Corso Nicola Terracciano in Pozzuoli, marking the beginning of sustained engagement with contemporary art in the area. In 1995, it relocated to Via Mameli, also in Pozzuoli, before returning to Corso Terracciano two years later in 1997.
Expansion to Naples came in 2003, when the gallery moved to Piazza dei Martiri. The current location at Piazzetta Nilo represents the latest chapter in this geographic and curatorial evolution, reflecting the gallery’s growing prominence in the regional art scene.

The gallery space showcases contemporary works across diverse disciplines. Visitors encounter painting, sculpture, installation art, and photography arranged in an integrated presentation that reflects the breadth of contemporary practice over three decades.
Cultural significance
Alfonso Artiaco Gallery has played a vital role in promoting contemporary art beyond Naples’s historic centre, establishing cultural presence first in Pozzuoli and then consolidating a platform for emerging and established artists. The gallery’s trajectory from periphery to centre documents shifting patterns of cultural investment in Campania.
