The eclipse, Miriam Vlaming, 2020, Egg tempera on canvas

"The eclipse is the suspended moment when man's place in a society that is changing is called into question. We're looking for our bearings. So poetry, a sixth sense, is at work."

J.B. Thoret on The Eclipse, a film by M. Antonioni.

After 20 years' experience in auction houses, Sophie Spettel decided to work with living artists. She opened her gallery 2024, with exhibitions in hybrid venues and appearances at art fairs.

Although most of the artists are based in Berlin, the gallery's choice is guided more by the artists' work in their quest to represent the world. The way in which they carry out in-depth research into their own understanding of humanity.

The focus is on paintings, drawings and prints.
