Artist statement Thomas Whittaker Kidd:
My gesture across the paper is a visual paragraph; an action producing a reaction continuously connected.
This trouble tinted reaction is caressed yielding a transformation just as a Zen tweeker would instigate transcendence.

Cornelia Renz develops her work as an artistic reflection on political, social and cultural phenomena, or as she describes it: “(…) art is for me a performative process of cognition”. She examines existing visual material from a wide variety of media and uses it as a template for her reverse glass drawings. In the process, her biography serves as impetus and material. The collage is formative for Renz artistic practice. Since her stay in Israel, she has expanded her original two-dimensional process by combining her drawings, found footage, and wall works into spatial installations. Increasingly, she incorporates the work of other artists into her installations. Curating is part of her artistic practice.
She was a fellow of the Kunstfonds Bonn, the Art Cube Artists’ Studios Jerusalem, the Künstlerhaus Schloss Balmoral and the Else-Heiliger-Fonds; winner of the Schering Prize for Visual Arts, the Marion Ermer Prize and the Schüngel Prize for Graphic Arts. She has had solo exhibitions at Museum Montanelli, Prague, Kunstverein Konstanz, Kunsthalle Memmingen, Kunsthaus Erfurt, Nolde Stiftung Berlin, Kunsthalle Göppingen, gallery Goff+Rosenthal in NYC and gallery Anita Beckers, Frankfurt, among others. She participated in group shows in galleries and museums in Paris, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Prague, New Orleans, Bregenz, and throughout Germany.
