Marta Renzi was a guest artist (critic) for the public showing of Maida Withers film,  Dance Portraits on Screen -2021.

Marta Renzi was guest artist for the final Summer Dance Workshop, Maida Withers Faculty, offered by The George Washington University, 1982.

Marta Renzi, guest artist-in-residence- for the Summer Dance Workshop, 1982,  will present Cadenza Cartoon, Artichoke for Two, an intricately crafted duet, What Do You Do, Dear?, and an excerpt from For the Love of the Working with her company from New York City.  Ms. Renzi’s choreography is distinctively exuberant and athletic and is concerned with pure movement structures — what the choreographer calls “the eccentricity of an individual vision/language that is mutually agreed upon by those involved.”  Marta will be doing the performance in Washington, DC with five members of her company from NYC.  MARTA RENZI, since graduating from Hampshire College and arriving in New York in 1975, has performed with the companies of Douglas Dunn, Kei Takei and Twyla Tharp…all artists in the post-modern tradition.  Her experience includes teaching, performing, and choreographing, as well as video and theater.  She is a recipient of NEA Choreographic Fellowships in 1980 and 1981.  She was resident artist at the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center Choreographer’s Conference.  Deborah Jowitt enthused:  “In their performing — restrained, yet superbly full — there isn’t a trace of phoniness, nor is there in the choreography.  Emotional content is something the brightest of the new choreographers have been understandably reticent about dealing with several generations of corn hanging over their heads.  Someone should give this woman a purple heart.”
