A brush with... Renee Green - podcast
Briefly

Renée Green, an accomplished artist known for her installations, videos, and texts, delves into the nuanced interplay of ideas, perception, and memory—both personal and collective. In a podcast with Ben Luke, she discusses her influences across various cultural domains, illustrating how her work employs a 'methodology of citation' to connect disparate sources. Her art invites viewers to engage actively in shaping meaning, reflecting her deep fascination with the processes of perception and sensation, alongside her consistent daily practices of drawing and research.
"Through what has been described as a 'methodology of citation', in which she overtly names and synthesises the language and forms of the disparate individuals she references, Renée reflects on the nature of ideas, subjectivity and perception, fiction and reality, and memory-personal and collective."
"Just as she is generous in her allusions, so her art is an invitation to the viewer, to witness the connections she assembles, and help shape the works' meaning."
"She discusses how her work is concerned with 'perception and sensation' and how drawing is a daily activity alongside reading and research."
"Her ongoing fascination with On Kawara and her interest in particular artists is depicted through complex and layered works that manifest as installations, video pieces and texts."
