Valeriano Hern\u00e1ndez ha sabido compaginar su dedicaci\u00f3n a la docencia con su pasi\u00f3n por la escultura. De sus manos han salido durante las dos \u00faltimas d\u00e9cadas la mayor\u00eda de sus obras inspiradas en el m\u00e1s puro estilo cl\u00e1sico. El dominio de las formas, el volumen, el equilibrio y la materia, han sido su principal preocupaci\u00f3n a la hora de elegir la figura humana como su principal l\u00ednea creativa.
\nValeriano Hern\u00e1ndez Fraile naci\u00f3 en Calzada de Don Diego, provincia de Salamanca, donde transcurri\u00f3 su infancia y gran parte de su juventud. Los primeros veinte a\u00f1os en el pueblo fueron realmente duros al dedicarse a las labores del campo en aquellas \u00e9pocas.
\nEn el a\u00f1o 1964 se matricul\u00f3 en la Escuela de Bellas Artes de San Eloy en la que estudi\u00f3 dibujo durante tres a\u00f1os y donde consigui\u00f3 los primeros premios art\u00edsticos. Su periplo formativo contin\u00faa en el Instituto Fray Luis de Le\u00f3n, para continuar por la Escuela de Artes Aplicadas y Maestr\u00eda Industrial en Barcelona y Salamanca, en las ramas de Construcci\u00f3n y Topograf\u00eda.
\nEn 1982 ingres\u00f3 en la Facultad de Bellas Artes de Salamanca, donde se licenci\u00f3 en la especialidad de escultura, sintiendo especial admiraci\u00f3n por Prax\u00edteles, Fideas, Miguel \u00c1ngel y Augusto Rod\u00edn.
\nSu primera exposici\u00f3n llega en el a\u00f1o 1987 en la Sala Picasso de Salamanca. Aqu\u00ed inicia un gran recorrido de exposiciones tanto nacionales como internacionales, que se ven avaladas por importantes premios y galardones.
\nEn 1992 se traslada a Italia, m\u00e1s concretamente a Carrara, para trabajar en el m\u00e1rmol a la vez que convive con grandes escultores tanto italianos como de todo el mundo, haciendo de \u00e9sta Ciudad su segunda patria.
\nLa escultura de Hern\u00e1ndez Fraile tiene en la figura humana casi su \u00fanica tem\u00e1tica de inspiraci\u00f3n, teniendo algunos destellos en la escultura abstracta. Junto a este culto por el cuerpo, el escultor salmantino cultiva tambi\u00e9n con gran inter\u00e9s la escultura religiosa. Algunas de sus esculturas de imaginer\u00eda religiosa, se encuentran junto a obras de escultores espa\u00f1oles de gran renombre internacional como son Diego de Silo\u00e9, Antonio Carnicero, Pedro de Mena, etc. En esta l\u00ednea de cubrir diferentes campos de creaci\u00f3n, Hern\u00e1ndez ha aportado su granito de arena a favor de enriquecer con sus esculturas el ornamento de algunas plazas y parques salmantinos y otras ciudades en \u00e1mbito internacional.
\nY es que Hern\u00e1ndez Fraile ha dotado a su obra de una gran unidad. Esta fidelidad a los c\u00e1nones cl\u00e1sicos le ha valido el reconocimiento de importantes academias de las artes francesas e italianas. La consecuci\u00f3n en el a\u00f1o 1994 del primer premio de escultura de Saint Cham\u00f3nd (Francia) le vali\u00f3 un posterior reconocimiento m\u00e1s general de su obra, al obtener la medalla de esta ciudad. Posteriormente las medallas de plata y Vermeil de la Academia Internacional de las Artes las ciencias y las Letras de Paris, (Francia). Nombrado Caballero Oficial Acad\u00e9mico por la Academia Internacional \u201c Greci Marino \u201c ( Italia ).
\nUna de sus grandes exposiciones se ha realizado en la Galer\u00eda Bungeishunjo de TOKIO, Jap\u00f3n con gran \u00e9xito de cr\u00edtica y p\u00fablico.
\nPor \u00faltimo, resaltar el gran n\u00famero de obra escult\u00f3rica p\u00fablica realizada en toda Europa.<\/p>\n

Valeriano Hern\u00e1ndez has been able to combine his dedication to teaching with his passion for sculpture. During the last two decades, most of his works have come from his hands, inspired by the purest classical style. The mastery of forms, volume, balance and matter, have been his main concern when choosing the human figure as his main creative line.
\nValeriano Hern\u00e1ndez Fraile was born in Calzada de Don Diego, province of Salamanca, where he spent his childhood and most of his youth. The first twenty years in the town were really hard, as he dedicated himself to farm work at that time.
\nIn 1964 he enrolled in the San Eloy School of Fine Arts where he studied drawing for three years and where he won his first artistic prizes. His formative journey continued at the Instituto Fray Luis de Le\u00f3n, to continue at the Escuela de Artes Aplicadas y Maestr\u00eda Industrial in Barcelona and Salamanca, in the branches of Construction and Topography.
\nIn 1982 he entered the Faculty of Fine Arts in Salamanca, where he graduated in the specialty of sculpture, feeling special admiration for Praxiteles, Fideas, Michelangelo and Augusto Rodin.
\nHis first exhibition came in 1987 at the Sala Picasso in Salamanca. Here he begins a great tour of national and international exhibitions, which are supported by important prizes and awards.
\nIn 1992 he moved to Italy, more specifically to Carrara, to work in marble while living with great sculptors both Italian and from all over the world, making this city his second homeland.
\nHern\u00e1ndez Fraile’s sculpture has in the human figure almost its only subject of inspiration, having some flashes in abstract sculpture. Along with this cult for the body, the sculptor from Salamanca also cultivates religious sculpture with great interest. Some of his sculptures of religious imagery are found next to works by Spanish sculptors of great international renown, such as Diego de Silo\u00e9, Antonio Carnicero, Pedro de Mena, etc. In this line of covering different fields of creation, Hernandez has contributed his grain of sand in favor of enriching with his sculptures the ornament of some squares and parks in Salamanca and other cities internationally.
\nHern\u00e1ndez Fraile has endowed his work with a great unity. This fidelity to the classical canons has earned him the recognition of important French and Italian academies of the arts. The achievement in 1994 of the first prize of sculpture of Saint Chamond (France) earned him a subsequent more general recognition of his work, obtaining the medal of this city. Subsequently the silver and Vermeil medals of the International Academy of Arts, Sciences and Letters of Paris (France). Named Knight Academic Officer by the International Academy “Greci Marino” (Italy).
\nOne of his major exhibitions has been held at the Bungeishunjo Gallery in TOKYO, Japan with great critical and public success.
