Ivana Brenner is an Argentinian artist based in Brooklyn, New York. She earned her MFA in Studio (Fiber and Material Studies department) at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago with a full tuition, merit-based New Artist Society Scholarship.
She is a 2022 AIM fellow at the Bronx Museum and was part of NYFA's 2020 Immigrant Artist Mentoring Program. In 2015 she participated in the Biennale Internationale du Lin de Portneuf, Québec, where she was also given a two-weeks residency. She was awarded a 6-months residency at Cité Internationale des Arts, Paris (2009-2010).
Ivana has exhibited individually at Galería Vasari, Buenos Aires (Towards Dissolution, 2015), and Alejandra Von Hartz Gallery, Miami (Urpflanze, 2011). She has participated in several international group and two-person gallery and museum shows, amongst which A su lado, at Galería Vasari, Buenos Aires (2019); Le Dégel, at Julio Artist-Run Space, Paris (2017); My Feet Have Lost Memory of Softness, at The Franklin, Chicago (2016); Assemblage #1, at Galerie 0fr, Paris (2016); Romántico, at Fundación PROA, Buenos Aires (2014), and Material Color at Hunterdon Art Museum, New Jersey (2008).
She recently wrote an catalogue essay on Medardo Rosso's work for the Art Institute of Chicago.
For her design project, Domingo Ceramics, she makes porcelain & gold tableware that dialogues with her sculpture. Domingo means Sunday in Spanish, the day that in her native Buenos Aires people gather together with family and friends to share a meal.
