Mónica Sartori
Mónica Sartori is a sculptor living and working in her hometown Argentina. She has a BFA in drawing and sculpture from the Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes Prilidiano Pueyrdon. Her production revolves around the expressive power of forms and the emotions that they unleash. Through her art she hopes to create reflection on current social issues. Her primary field of research is woman. With subtlety, she shows us their bodies and implicit volumes while also making us ponder on their role both in society and in the contemporary art scene. One of the central motifs of her work is the social construction of woman in culture, confronting their own limitations.
Women confronting their own limitations are the protagonists of versatile creations in a body of work where experimentation with different materials is fundamental. Sartori solders metals, makes assemblages, carves, and molds, but also, in more recent works, experiments with epoxy, rubber, plastics, and waste.
While her polished, shiny, and reflective surfaces veer into non-figuration, they never stray from the core of her work. They continue to rethink women’s role and place throughout history and into the present. Her abstractions come together in a synthesis where her organic forms meet her “feminine self.”
Sartori has been awarded the most prestigious awards in Argentina, amongst them: Premio Azcuy (2022), Salon Nacional de Artes Visuales (2022), Premio Itau (2022), Salón Alfredo Bigatti of the Sociedad Argentina de Artistas Plásticos (SAAP) (2013), Salón Nacional de Arte, Museo Fundacion Romulo Regio (2011).She has participated in multiple solo shows, the last of which was hosted by in the Consulate General of Argentina in New York (2023), as well as in numerous group shows, not only in Argentina, but also in Europe, amongst them: Yeca, intervención urbana (Fundación Cazadores, 2021); Biennale Internazionale d´Arte Contemporanea, Museo Diocesano Francesco Gonzaga, Mantova, Italy (2017); Florence Biennale. Earth: Creativity & Sustainability, Florence, Italy, Espacio Palazzo dell Arte dei Beccai (2017).
