Biography

She was born in La Pampa, Argentina.

She lived in Geneva, Switzerland, for seven years. There, she continued her musical studies, which she would later abandon upon returning to her country in order to devote herself entirely to painting.

She received her earliest artistic training from Andreina Baj, who had studied in Turin under master painter Felice Casorati. She later attended the studios of Emilio Pettoruti and Horacio Butler, and ultimately worked for three years with master artist Santiago Cogorno.

In 1971, she held her first exhibition at the Cadario Gallery in Milan, followed by an exhibition at the Wildenstein Gallery in Buenos Aires in 1972. She returned to Milan in 1973, and in 1976 joined the prestigious Rubbers Gallery, founded in 1957.

She exhibited her work in the United States, Spain, Venezuela, Uruguay, and Mexico.

In 1974, she began sharing her life with writer Ángel Bonomini. Together, they undertook numerous journeys and frequently spent extended periods abroad, particularly in Italy, where they shared projects and creative work.

In 1996, she held her first sculpture exhibition. Her interest in and travels throughout North Africa had a decisive influence on her work.

The desert, vast open spaces, the sea, and the plains inspired the essential forms to which Elba Pérez would later refer when she observed:

“Vechy Logioio’s work adheres to essential forms and to the inherent qualities of the materials employed. Devoid of references or anecdotes, Logioio’s formal proposition operates at a profound level.”

This quality, present in her sculptures and their potential monumentality, also inhabited her paintings: a body of work that is austere, essential, and highly effective in its visual formulation.

Alicia de Arteaga, in turn, described her works as:

“archaic or entirely contemporary forms, rendered through an essential and minimalist approach.”
