About the Item
Gray Del Cielo Y La TIerra by Alberto Vitelio
Material: Fiberglass, resin, polyurethane paint.
Dimensions: H 108 x W 94 x D 41 cm.
Alberto Vitelio was born in Santiago de Chile in 1990, in a newly installed democracy after 17 years of military-civic dictatorship. The cultural blackout, persecution, and censorship of this period endowed the artistic scene with a profoundly dissident and anti-establishment voice. From 1990 onwards, art in Chile remained on the margins, while the territory became the laboratory for Milton Friedman's neoliberal politics.
From a young age, Alberto showed a deep interest in nature's mysteries. Archaeological vestiges, fossils, and lava, all shapes, and colors, spread over the earth's surface. It is no coincidence that his work evokes a cave-like aesthetic, mysterious, silent, but at the same time magnetic and imposing. Unintentionally, Vitelio breaks with the sanitized and rigid notion of beauty and gives rise to an intimate experience, that confronts us with a magnetism that stirs our entrails. What seems viscous, shiny, rigid, and at the same time fluid, confronts us with what human nature seeks to silence: our own darkness.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
