The Museum of Art and Design (MOAD) at Miami Dade College (MDC) presents Belkis Ayón and Carlos Alfonzo: Odyssey, a compelling exhibition bringing together the deeply symbolic work of two influential Cuban artists whose distinct practices explore myth, spirituality, and the human search for freedom. Featuring thought-provoking paintings by Cuban-American artist, Carlos Alfonzo (1950-1991), and powerful prints by Cuban artist, Belkis Ayón (1967-1999), the exhibition highlights their shared engagement with history, identity, and visual storytelling, and underscores their enduring impact on contemporary art. While their artistic approaches differ, their works converge through shared engagements with historical myth, complex spiritual belief systems, and a commitment to visual storytelling that unfolds as an ongoing journey. It marks the second exhibition in the Freedom Tower’s Wolfson Art Gallery since the historic landmark reopened following a major renovation to mark its 100th anniversary.
