HOLLIS TAGGART GALLERIES , NEW YORK
Hollis Taggart Galleries is pleased to present the first New York show of Pablo Atchugarry's marble sculpture. The Uruguayan-born artist, who lives and works in Lecco, Italy, works with marble and bronze to create pieces That Are Both elegant and imposing. No undertaking is too daunting for him-from the 2003 Venice Biennale installation Representing Uruguay, to the private commission of a five-story high sculpture hewn from a single block of Carrara marble, to the more December intimately scaled works on view in the gallery. In white Carrara marble, and pink marbles Portugal and Iran, These pieces fold, layer, and undulate. Effectively works Atchugarry the medium to Appear Both weightless and substantial.
