Edda Renouf Edda Renouf (born 1943) is an American painter and printmaker. Renouf attended Sarah Lawrence College, graduating with a B.A. and earned her M.F.A. from Columbia University. She has exhibited in both America and Europe, living and working in New York and Paris since 1972. Renouf is known for altering the surfaces of canvas or paper before applying paint. She removes fibers from these materials or cuts into their surfaces, next adds pigment, and finally sands down the applied medium to bring the alternations she has made out to the forefront. The resulting lines or other marks that appear in the final surface of the work of art call attention to the underlying texture of the surface. While their grid-like compositions suggest a formal relationship with the work of Agnes Martin, Renouf's derives from a technique and method that is unique from her contemporary.
