Miracco has curated major exhibitions with Tate Modern in London, with The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and with London's Estorick Collection. His passion for Wilde dates from the early 1980s when he wrote his first essay on Wilde's stays in Italy entitled Verso il sole. Cronaca del soggiorno napoletano (Colonnese, 1981). Miracco's new book on Wilde is based on new materials that he found during the last few years. See less
