Alberto Mugrabi
The son of Colombian-Jewish cloth magnate-turned-art collector Jose Mugrabi, "Tico" is the public face of the Warhol-collecting Mugrabi clan and a fixture on the contemporary art social scene.
Belonging to a family that owns over 800 Warhol paintings—and don't forget the Renoirs, Picassos, Rodins, Ernsts, and Hirsts—Mugrabi spends his time adding to and defending his family spoils. Unlike his more soft-spoken patriarch, Jose Mugrabi, Alberto is known for his jet-setting tendencies, While some critics bemoan the family's over-the-top collecting practices as unfairly ascertaining the validity and popularity of certain artists, Mugrabi continues dealing and collecting, insisting that he and his family act as a crucial foundation for future artists.
