[3] At age eleven, Atchugarry began showing his works and as he progressed through adolescence, he started feeling the need to express himself in various forms and materials, such as cement, iron, and wood.

[4] By age eighteen, he had his first personal exhibition of paintings at the Civic Room in Montevideo in 1972 and he had undertaken his first experiment with sculpture – a horse cast in concrete.

[3] In the following years as he took up and dropped architectural studies, he found venues in Brazil and Argentina to exhibit his paintings, which featured a mixture of abstraction and Constructivist concepts.

[2] As a result of the success of the show, his paintings were exhibited in a variety of European cities, including Milan, Copenhagen, Paris, Chur, Bergamo, and Stockholm.

[2] Since 1989, his poetic sculptural style has caused Atchugarry to express himself through monumental works, which are now situated in various public spaces in Europe and Latin America.

[4] That same year, he sculpted his first monumental work entitled Obelisk of the Third Millennium, a six-meter-high Carrara marble sculpture for the Italian town of Udine.

[4] In early 2002, Atchugarry's sculpture Ideali in Garfagnana marble was given to the Prince Rainier of Monaco as a tribute to the 50th anniversary of his reign; it is located on the Avenue Princesse Grace of Monte-Carlo.

That same year, Hollis Taggart Galleries in New York City organized a solo show "Pablo Atchugarry: Heroic Activities" that featured an essay by the notable art critic, Jonathan Goodman.

[2] In late 2013, Mondadori Electa published the Catalogo Generale delle scultura, two volumes edited by Professor Carlo Pirovano cataloging every sculpture produced by the artist between 1971 and 2013.

[6] Manipulating sinuous curves, accordion folds, ovoid apertures, and a typically vertical alignment, Atchugarry creates forms that are highly evocative of plants and trees, breaking waves, still lifes, and the human figure.

[6] From 2007 to 2008, a retrospective exhibition dedicated to his work entitled "The Plastic Space of Light" was held in Brazil, accompanied by a critical text written by Luca Massimo Barbero.

Hollis Taggart Galleries held another show of the artist's work titled "Pablo Atchugarry: Lives in Stone" from 7 November 2013 to 4 January 2014.
