Roberto Sebastián Matta, Seating System Model “Malitte”, Italy, 1966
By Sebastian Matta
Located in Barcelona, ES
Roberto Sebastián Matta
Seating system model “Malitte”
Named after Malitte Pope, Matta´s wife
Manufactured by Gavina (1966-1968)
and Knoll International (1968-1974)
Italy, 1966
Foam, wool fabric
From the archives of Side Gallery
Measurements:
160 cm x 160 cm x 63 cm
63 in x 63 in x 24.8 in
Concept:
Malitte is a seating system, an ever-changing composition of five polyurethane blocks covered in a slightly elastic fabric.
A playful collection of colored interlocking organic shapes that can be assembled into a single sculpture, a “wall” dividing the environment with its formal and conceptual presence, which, when necessary, can instantly become a complete living room: a two-seater sofa, three seats and a pouf.
Malitte is included in the permanent collection of MoMA (the Museum of Modern Art) in New York City.
Biography:
After graduating from university in Santiago de Chile in 1935 with a degree in architecture, Roberto Matta traveled to Europe where he met André Breton, the founder of the Surrealist movement in Europe. In 1938, he began painting and moved to the United States for ten years. During this period he sought to evoke the human psyche in his work, inspired by Freudian psychoanalysis. Matta’s works became increasingly dominated by a socio-political element, which broke from the conventions of Surrealism.
Matta was also a seminal figure in abstract expressionism but broke away from this too to develop a highly personal artistic vision. His mature works blend abstraction with elements of figuration and fantastically-conceived, multi-dimensional space. He was heavily involved in the social movements of the 1960s and 1970s and a strong supporter of Salvador Allende...
