Lola Erhart is a visual artist born in Buenos Aires, Argentina and based in Patagonia. She studied Visual Arts between Buenos Aires and Barcelona, where she completed her degree in drawing and painting. Her academic formation was deepened through private study with some of Argentina’s most respected figurative painters.

The human figure has always been her anchor, but never a fixed point. Gesture, matter and abstraction press against it constantly, held together by a slow, unresolved dialogue between reason and emotion.

Her subjects come from her intimate circle. Through them, she explores the beauty that arises from presence and contemplation, and the reclaiming of everyday elements that surround us and shape our domestic lives. There is a quiet nostalgia for the past in each gesture, as well as an urgency to give meaning and preserve feelings before they dissolve.

Her paintings begin where words fall short, in the space between figures, in the presence of their unguarded bodies, the tenderness of the skin, the weight of a gesture, in what presence leaves behind.

Her work has been exhibited in collective shows and international art fairs in Argentina and the United States, and is held in private collections across Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Europe, and the USA, as well as at the Museum of Latin American Art.
