Education and Career

Renuka was born in 1957 in the village of Kesaramadu, whence her last name was adopted, near the city of Tumakuru in Tumakuru District in the Indian state Karnataka.

She holds a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Art History from Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath - Bengaluru, Master of Arts (MA) in History from Annamalai University - Chennai and a Bachelor of Science (BSc) from Bangalore University.[9] She also obtained a Government Diploma (GD) in Painting with 1st Rank for 5 years and Gold Medal[9] from the KEN School of Art[10] - Bengaluru under the instruction of the legendary artist R M Hadapad.[11]

She served as a member of the Karnataka Lalit Kala Academy (KLA)[12] in Bangalore from 1995 to 1998 under the directorship of C Chandrashekhar[13][14]. She worked full-time as a lecturer and Art Instructor for students seeking a Diploma in Education (DEd) at Sree Siddaganga College of Education[15] under Sree Siddaganga Education Society[16] in Tumkur. She also taught art history as a guest faculty in Tumkur University.[17]

Reviews

"Renuka Kesaramadu has created a series of works in which the reality of the country of Sormano and its atmosphere are depicted carefully. Take shape on her canvases do the cobbled paths, the profiles of the mountains, the houses, the church, the beautiful young women who accompanied the artist showing and explaining, in English of course, aspects and particularities of the country. A country that, despite the dominance of gray, has its aspects of preciousness that the artist emphasizes through the use of the color gold. The same country that, in one of her works, is dotted with gold and wrapped in a loved symbology, white flowers, slightly raised, made ​​using crumpled tissue paper and glued on the canvas."

- Antonella Prota Giurleo, August 9, 2009, Sormano, Italy[5]

"Modernist sources:

The four mid-generation painters recently at Renaissance (July 27 to 31) are preoccupied with different subjects whose graceful but conventional range corresponds to their somewhat old-fashioned aesthetic languages, and binds them.

This perhaps can be associated with the artists’ roots in Karnataka’s provincial educational institutions.

To varying degrees and in varying ways, all of them relay on the indigenized, Modernism-derived combination of abstract elements, stylized figures and patterned design. These ingredients are softer and more abstract in Renuka Kesaramadu’s dynamic evocations of human hands reaching out over distances of the globe..."

- Marta Jakimowicz, Deccan Herald Online, August 9, 2009, Bangalore, India[18]

"The eye theme has been successfully exploited by a Karnataka artist, Renuka Kesaramadu. It is the eye that sees, understands, starts off communication, determines human relations."

- Arkay, at the Bajaj Art Gallery, 1997, Mumbai, India[19]
