There is, to date, only one Philippine startup that has reached unicorn status, or one with a valuation of at least US$1 billion—Revolution Precrafted of Robbie Antonio, who reveals to Chit Lijauco a bit about how his mind works and allows just a peek into his famed art collection
He has only ever given a peek of his home to the media (like a photo of his stairs appearing in Surface magazine). But now, for Philippine Tatler, Antonio opens up more of his home, though still not in its entirety—then again, more than he has ever allowed for any other medium. The graciousness, however, comes with a plethora of do’s and don’ts, to include the number of people allowed inside his much talked about and speculated on home: One.
While magazine cover shoots usually command a cast of art directors, stylists, assistants, make-up artists, set designers, light men, and the photographer, Antonio would not have any of this. From the get-go he laid down his non-negotiable requirement: only the photographer will be allowed in.
So, what you see in these pages is just what Antonio is willing to show—but it’s already quite an eyeful. The dramatic and dazzling works positioned on his lawn and in his basement overwhelm an artistic appetite. Add the names of the artists behind them and the headiness turns into a yearning to see more.
