Overview
Mission
To engage in activities that support and build awareness of the museo di capodimonte, one of europe's greatest art museums located in naples, italy.
What it reported doing in 2024
Guided tours are given to guests of honor at capodimonte; trips are organized from the us for groups of individuals to see the wonders of the capodimonte in person; presentations are organized and supported by the organization on a periodic basis; and fellowships are offered to american art historians to work hands-on in the museum. The fellow on staff in 2024 is currently writing several articles about different aspects of the firmian collection. She has already published an introductory blogpost on the codart website and presented her work at la capraia (the center for the art and architectural history of port cities) and the societ napoletana di storia patria. She wrote a contribution for the exhibition catalogue art and war in the renaissance: the battle of pavia tapestries, which in elizabeth cleland's burlington magazine review was described as 'a useful discussion of the drawings'. She has plans to attend a seminar on print curation in london and paris that is being hosted by the academic journal print quarterly and generously funded by the getty paper project.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
