ALLISON RENTZ is a metro-Atlanta artist who works in installation,
performance, drawing, and multimedia. She is interested in how humans
interact with each other, and with the environment.
Allison's art has been presented in Atlanta, Athens, GA, France, Italy,
Spain, Chicago, Lexington, KY, Texas, NY, and on the Web. Noted projects
include "c o n t a i n i n g = h a t e," a performance installation at the
Atlanta Contemporary Art Center as part of "Bring it on! A series of solo
positions."
Allison is the dictator of her own country--artempeerealism--where art is
the law, and the law is art. She has been enjoying experimenting with music
in the bands "Chinese Frankenstein" and "ASSTOW." Collaboration and drawing
have become big parts of her recent artistic practice.

An artist is a worker...
//...I work for harmony...//
An artist's work reflects experience...
//...My journey is a battle with internal and external influences...//
Creating effects the environment......
//...I reuse my materials whenever possible...//
//...Plastic is an abundant component of my work...//
//...My performance installations often include parts from previous
works...//
//...Installations are site-specific...//
