Join Morbid Anatomy in the gorgeous and historic city of Naples, Italy for a day-long leap into the intersections of anatomy, art and embodiment at the magnificent MUSA Anatomy Museum of the University of Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli” and the Ospedale della Pace, a former 16th century hospital for incurables, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Attendees will get to know the collections—and beyond!—via a symposium with illustrated lectures by international curators, scholars, and makers followed by guided tours of the museum, which presents over 3,000 items in Memento Mori-themed wooden showcases. Its most famous artifact is a humerus bone prepared by the revolutionary anatomist Vesalius, author of De humani corporis. It also features spectacular wax anatomical models from the 18th and 19th century, and a collection of human skulls stretching back to 1st Century BCE, some from excavations at Pompeii and Herculaneum.
