Magdalena Fernández began her training with a Graphic Arts course at Boston University in 1982. Between 1983 and 1984, she attended the Universidad Católica Andrés Bell (abbreviated as UCAB in Spanish), where she studied Education with a focus on Physics and Mathematics, interests that have influenced her artistic work. In 1989, she graduated as a graphic designer from the Neumann Institute in Caracas. Her work integrates the use of light, sound, and abstractions of nature to explore dualities such as chaos and order or concrete and the organic. She won first prize in the Visual Arts category of the Concurso de Arte Contemporáneo Creadoras (2023) and has recently had solo shows at Gallery Nosco (Brussels), the Centro Cultural Clavijero (Morelia), the Museo Carrillo Gil (Mexico City), and the Phoenix Art Museum. Her work is part of collections in Ecuador, Spain, the United States, France, Israel, Italy, Mexico, Poland, and Venezuela.
Colección FEMSA has an image bank of the works that comprise it—a resource intended for researchers, publishers, and art institutions. The Collection is open to lending requests for shows in Mexico and other countries.
