Beto Gatti – “Toy Art” (2022)
Bronze
Edition of 15
35 x 18 x 16 cm | 14 x 7 x 6.3 in
Beto Gatti’s “Toy Art” is a striking bronze sculpture that merges nostalgia with a profound critique of modern behavior. Capturing a robotic monkey deeply engrossed in a smartphone, this piece reflects on the fusion of technology, consumer culture, and human instinct. Gatti’s work often challenges contemporary society’s relationship with digital devices, and here, he playfully yet poignantly addresses our collective fixation on screens.
The limited edition of 15 ensures exclusivity, making it a sought-after work for collectors. Gatti’s meticulous craftsmanship brings this sculpture to life—the seamless combination of organic and mechanical elements invites viewers to reflect on the increasingly blurred boundaries between humanity and artificiality. The polished bronze surface enhances the contrast between tradition and modernity, creating a dynamic interplay of light and reflection.
Beyond its striking visual impact, “Toy Art” serves as a conversation piece—its subject matter resonates universally, touching on themes of technology, dependence, and evolution. The high-quality bronze material ensures durability and timelessness, making it an artwork that will endure both physically and conceptually. Gatti’s growing international recognition also adds to its artistic and collectible value.
This sculpture is in perfect condition, with a highly reflective bronze finish that accentuates its detailed construction. The piece is cast with precision, emphasizing smooth curves and intricate mechanical joints. The polished surface interacts beautifully with ambient light, making it an engaging presence in any space.
Beto Gatti’s practice is deeply rooted in questioning modern behaviors and societal paradoxes. In “Toy Art,” he presents a hybrid creature—part primate, part machine—absorbed in the digital world. The artwork prompts reflection: Are we still in control of technology, or has it already reshaped our very nature? The playful yet unsettling stance of the figure echoes the contemporary human experience, where physical reality and digital existence intertwine inseparably.
For those seeking an artwork that seamlessly blends playfulness with depth, “Toy Art” is a powerful addition—an emblem of our times, captured in bronze.

Presentation
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, Beto Gatti 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.
