Lot Essay

Pablo Atchugarry’s works speak of ancient times; they refer to a classicism that is now lost but has left behind its timeless beauty. However, what is most striking is the vitality and power that exudes from the marble. A constant tension is revealed to the viewer, forming a relationship with the surrounding space.
-G. Marinelli, exh. cat., Pablo Atchugarry, Milan, 2015, n.p.
