Pablo Atchugarry

Born 1954, Uruguay

Pablo Atchugarry, is internationally renowned for his monumental public sculptures. After experimenting with a variety of materials early in his career, Atchugarry turned to marble as his primary medium. Simultaneously abstract and numinous, massive and delicately carved, his sculptures are reflections on the intervention of the spiritual in everyday life, intended to channel spiritual energies into the spaces they occupy and invite contemplation of the divine. Atchugarry is influenced by the seminal work of Constantin Brancusi and Henry Moore, and often likened to Michelangelo in his similar devotion to working with his own hands (as opposed to the workshop practices of several of his contemporaries).

Pablo Atchugarry:
Jovenes Creadores

This year the Fundación Pablo Atchugarry hosted the seventh national Meeting of Young Creators. Middle school students in Uruguay were selected to come to the Fundación for a three-day intensive art workshop, where they created art with the assistance of professional artists. Joined by artists Diego Santurio and Janinne Wolfsohn, they visited Sculpture Park in Tierra, Garzón. We planted trees native to the reserve in Sculpture Park and visited the solo exhibition of artist, Veronica Vazquez at Piero Atchugarry Gallery.
