Hernán Camoletto
1976. San Jorge, Santa Fe, Argentina.
In his recent works, he explores the intersection between image and word/discourse. Drawing, painting, or installation serve as territories to explore recurring themes: communicability, memory, emotions, and loss. His works stem from observation and engagement with various materials and supports, whose singularities shape both the process and the artwork.
A self-taught artist, he honed his skills in workshops and clinics. In 2007 and 2008, he participated in El Levante, a workshop for reading and discussing artwork coordinated by Graciel Carnevale, Mauro Machado, Luján Castellani, and Lorena Cardona.
Since 2005, he has exhibited both individually and collectively. Among the former are "Imagen regresiva" (curated by Florencia Battiti, Crudo arte contemporáneo, Rosario, Argentina, 2022); "Silencio" (text by Juan Laxagueborde, El Gran Vidrio, Córdoba, Argentina, 2019); "Traducción" (curated by Mauro Guzmán, Mal de Archivo, Rosario, Argentina, 2015); "Restos nocturnos" (curated by Lucas Di Pascuale, Museo Genaro Pérez, Córdoba, Argentina, 2012).
Among his collective exhibitions, notable mentions include: "Qué cosa, la poesía visual?" curated by Guillermo Daghero at CCK, Buenos Aires, 2023; "Un decir" curated by Joaquín Rodríguez at BARRO, Buenos Aires, 2021; "Caudal" alongside Gabriel Chaile, Berny Garay Pringles, Alfredo Frías, Jessica Gómez (curated by Andrea Fernández), RUSIA Galería, Tucumán, Argentina, 2014; "Terreno baldío" alongside Luciano Burba and Paola Sferco (curated by Guillermo Daghero), El Gran Vidrio, Córdoba, Argentina, 2014; "Allí, allá, desde Argentina" alongside Noelle Lieber, Alejandra Tavolini, La Herrmana Favorita, Carlos Herrera, Sebastián Pinciroli, Lila Siegrist, Mariana Tellería, Andrea Ostera, Laura Glussman, and Fabricio Caiazza (curated by Santiago Rueda Fajardo), Plataforma Bogotá, Bogotá, Colombia, 2012; "Maratónicos" alongside Joaquín Boz, Evangelina Cipriani, Carla Colombo, Silvia Lenardón, Maximiliano Masuelli, José Pfaffen, Maxi Rossini, and Ana Wandzik (curated by Mariano Luna and Moira Aguirrezabal), Jardín oculto, Buenos Aires, Argentina, 2009.

He currently lives and works in Rosario.
