Cuban-American artist Ivonne Ferrer, currently serving as Deputy Director of the Museum of Contemporary Art of the Americas and Director of the Fine Arts Ceramic Center, was formally recognized by the City of Doral, Florida, during the opening of the Doral International Art Fair 2025. The distinction, conferred through an official certificate signed by Mayor Christi Fraga on November 6, 2025, acknowledges her outstanding participation and valuable contribution to the success of the fair. The document highlights Ferrer’s enduring dedication to art, culture, and community engagement—principles that have defined her creative and professional journey for more than three decades.
Held at the Doral Cultural Arts Center, the Doral International Art Fair convened artists, curators, and collectors from around the world in a program that celebrates diversity, dialogue, and the transformative power of contemporary art. Within this dynamic context, Ferrer’s work—recognized for its symbolic language and profound exploration of identity, memory, and migration—offered a poetic and critical lens through which to examine the evolving narratives of the Latin American diaspora.
With an artistic career that bridges continents and disciplines, Ferrer has exhibited in leading museums, institutions, and cultural spaces across Florida, the United States, and internationally—including countries such as Brazil, Mexico, and Spain. Her multidisciplinary practice, encompassing painting, collage, installation, and ceramics, merges technical precision with conceptual depth, engaging themes of transformation, cultural continuity, and the sensorial dimensions of exile.
Through this recognition, the City of Doral reaffirms its commitment to fostering artistic excellence and cultural diversity, positioning itself as a vibrant hub within Miami-Dade’s creative landscape. For Ivonne Ferrer, this honor represents not only an institutional gesture of appreciation but also a testament to her sustained contribution to the advancement and visibility of Latin American art in the United States and beyond.
