Johnson Museum of Art in Ithaca, New York, USA<br>25 January-8 June 2025<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Born Susan Nudelman in New York City, Suzi Ferrer (1940\u20132006) became a pioneering visual artist during her decade-long stay in Puerto Rico. Her transgressive work, which coincided with the second wave of feminism, challenged gender roles and experimented with contemporary materials while confronting observers with their stereotypes about sex and desire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curated by Melissa M. Ramos Borges, PhD,<em> <\/em>&#8220;Suzi Ferrer&#8221; is an abridged version of the original 2021-2022 exhibition at Museo de Arte y Dise\u00f1o de Miramar in San Juan, Puerto Rico, which maps out Ferrer\u2019s career, influences, and aesthetic evolution chronologically, from her time as a Cornell BFA student (Class of 1962) to her transformation into a critical avant-garde artist in mid-1970s Puerto Rico. It features recently discovered works, as well as archival material from the <em>Cornell Daily Sun<\/em> and <em>Cornell Alumni Newsletter<\/em>, exhibition catalogues, photographs, and personal annotations that clarify the artist\u2019s intentions, conceptual concerns, and creative processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1537\" src=\"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/suzi-ferrer-autoretato-ii.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16316\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/suzi-ferrer-autoretato-ii.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/suzi-ferrer-autoretato-ii-600x922.jpg 600w, https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/suzi-ferrer-autoretato-ii-700x1076.jpg 700w, https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/suzi-ferrer-autoretato-ii-300x461.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/suzi-ferrer-autoretato-ii-768x1180.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/suzi-ferrer-autoretato-ii-650x999.jpg 650w, https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/suzi-ferrer-autoretato-ii-260x400.jpg 260w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Autorretrato II<\/em> by Suzi Ferrer Nudelman<br>photo silkscreen on Plexiglas; 1973. Courtesy of the Ferrer Nudelman Family.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Ferrer\u2019s art practice was socially engaged and theoretically infused with issues still pertinent five decades after the works were produced. Most of the work was only exhibited publicly once or, in a few cases, twice during her lifetime, and subsequently relegated to storage for nearly fifty years. Recent public policies increasing restrictions on female bodies make Ferrer\u2019s themes more relevant than ever as indicators of the significance of body autonomy. This exhibition joins the continuum of a worldwide rediscovery, reinstatement, and legacy preservation of female artists previously and deliberately excluded from art historical narratives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>(text adapted from material provided by the gallery)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>INFORMATION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Herbert F.
