1946

Born Buenos Aires, Argentina

Currently lives and works in Córdoba, Argentina

 

Hernan Dompé was born in Buenos Aires, and currently lives and works in Cordoba, Argentina. He attended the Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes “Prilidiano Pueyrredón, in Buenos Aires. He was also an art professor for many years.

 

During his long career, Dompé has participated in many exhibitions in his country and internationally. His work is part of the collections of the most important museums and institutions, especially in Argentina, where some of them are at the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes,at the Museo Sívori, and at the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo, in Buenos Aires. In New York, his work is at The Bronx Museum of the Arts.

 

Dompé’s work comes from his interest in Pre-Columbian cultures, especially his “totems’ and “warriors” show its influence.  He takes elements from these cultures and creates sculptures in which archaic and contemporary formsare entwined. Following this inspiration, he uses materials that arerelated to nature, such as iron, bronze, marble, wood,and granite, which he later mixes with found objects. This recycling of objects gives the pieces an almost sacred quality. Some of them look like vestiges of ancient civilizations, like passages from the collective memory.
