The Gallerie d’Italia in Naples exhibits works from the Intesa Sanpaolo collection and global museums, fostering artistic exchange. David comes from the Jago Museum, enriching Rione Sanità through art.
Contemporary sculptor Jago, inspired by classical techniques, reimagines David and Goliath with modern elements. His David, echoing Michelangelo’s stance, sling, and stone, began as a clay model in 2020, followed by a plaster version. Now, it is being carved from a 4-meter Carrara marble block, symbolizing resilience and transformation.
