About the Item
Beto Gatti – “Human Rights” (2021)
Bronze
Edition of 7
40 x 34.5 x 39.4 cm 15.7 x 13.6 x 15.5 in
Beto Gatti’s “Human Rights” is a compelling bronze sculpture that reflects on the weight of responsibility, power, and humanity’s relationship with the world. Depicting a primate embracing the Earth with both strength and vulnerability, this piece challenges the viewer to consider the delicate balance between control and preservation, dominance and care.
This limited edition of 7 ensures that each sculpture is a rare acquisition, reinforcing its significance in Gatti’s body of work. The contrast between the meticulously detailed figure and the smooth, polished globe adds layers of meaning, inviting interpretation. The warm patina finish highlights the organic textures of the primate’s body, while the bronze map in relief transforms the Earth into a tactile symbol of territory, identity, and shared existence.
Beyond its aesthetic and technical mastery, “Human Rights” is an artwork that carries a profound message. Gatti often explores themes of time, technology, and identity, and here he extends his focus to the ethical and philosophical challenges of human civilization. The figure’s expression and pose suggest both possession and protection, creating an emotional tension that resonates with contemporary global concerns. The craftsmanship ensures durability, and its concept makes it a thought-provoking addition to any collection.
This sculpture is in perfect condition, with a rich patinated bronze surface that enhances its depth and visual warmth. The detailed musculature, expressive face, and engraved map of the world are accentuated by the interplay of polished and textured finishes. The work is mounted on a stable base, ensuring a strong sculptural presence in any setting.
Gatti’s exploration of humanity’s evolution, ethics, and technological influence is a recurring theme in his work. In “Human Rights,” he shifts focus toward the fragility of global responsibility—who holds the world, and at what cost? The primate, a symbolic ancestor, mirrors both the origins of humanity and its future, serving as a poignant reminder of our interconnected fate.
For collectors who seek artwork that goes beyond form to inspire dialogue, “Human Rights” is a statement of responsibility and contemplation—an artwork that speaks to both the present and the future.
Beto Gatti is a Brazilian artist who lives in Rio de Janeiro. His art is paradoxical, as it expresses the externalization of his introspection.
His sculptures convey restlessness, it leads us to daydreams and reflections. With abundant references to time and technology, he makes intersections between these two elements that permeate life in society, while invoking tomorrow in issues that agitate him today. After all, the same fraction of an hour can be time consuming for those who wait, but it flies for those who are thirsty to produce. Beto, in practice, freezes the passage of time in his creations, while drinking from the source of spirituality and existential reflections.
In 2021, he took his first steps in the digital world of crypt art, quickly consolidating himself among the main Brazilian artists making use of this new and revolutionary way of expressing art.

Victor Spinelli was born in New York from and Italian family. Established in Ibiza, he attributes his origins in art to piloting a Hot Air balloon and travelling the world as a photographer. His works range from painting to sculpture and of course, photography. In 2019 he orchestrated the construction of an 8-foot wooden sculpture of my popular photograph “Diver UP” for Burning Man. The sculpture was torched on “The Mans” ashes after he burned to the ground and this symbolized metamorphoses of not only the evolution of Diver UP, but also a demarcation point in his career, thus beginning a new chapter within it.
