Alicia Restrepo (born in Medellín, Colombia) graduated first in Economics and then later in art history. She has been in the art business since 1983, first as coowner of one of the most important galleries in Soho in the 80’s and 90’s. In 2003, she relocated to Miami following Art Basel Miami Beach’s debut in 2002 when Miami quickly became recognized as a global cultural destination.

Ms. Restrepo is an expert in Latin and South American art and has an impressive collection of contemporary art by mid-career to established artists from those regions, as well as Europe. Etra Fine Art has survived Miami’s gentrified neighborhood shifts. The gallery’s first location was in the Design District (before it became a luxury retail hub); followed by Wynwood (in the days when the area had Art Walks); and currently, in Little Haiti/Little River Art District (the new home of Oolite Arts).

In addition to promoting and exhibiting artists, Ms. Restrepo works with private collectors, corporations, and interior designers to build collections by researching, locating, acquiring, and installing an array of artwork.
