Pablo Lavezzari - Please touch
His relationship with art begins in his childhood, at the Puppeteers School, in
Tucuma'n. As a teenager he became a member of the UNIMA (International Puppeteers
Union). In 1987 he meets a new passion: television. In a Co'rdoba Channel he performs
first as cameraman and then as cameras director. In 1995 he starts the manufacture
of camera support equipment (robotic headset cranes and stabilizers). In 1998 he
feels the drive to go back to art, without setting aside the knowledge he had
obtained about mechanics and robotics. Through that fusion Kinetic Art is born: an
aesthetic search in objects expressed in a language that he calls medieval robotics.
His works have been exposed in several places of Argentina and in some Spanish
cities. In 2005, 180 Master Craftsmen gave him the Title of Great Master Craftsman
2005, a prize to be added to several ones obtained in former years in Argentina and
Spain.
