Abstract: We introduce a matrix model for noncommutative gravity, based on the gauge group $U(2)otimesU(2)$. The vierbein is encoded in a matrix $Y_{mu}$, having values in the coset space $U(4)/(U(2)otimesU(2))$, while the spin connection is encoded in a matrix $X_{m}u$, having values in $U(2)otimesU(2)$. We show how to recover the Einstein equations from the $hetao0$ limit of the matrix model equations of motion. We stress the necessity of a metric tensor, which is a covariant representation of the gauge group in order to set up a consistent second order formalism. We finally define noncommutative gravitational instantons as generated by $U(2)otimesU(2)$ valued quasi-unitary operators acting on the background of the Matrix model. Some of these solutions have naturally self-dual or anti-self-dual spin connections.
