From the afterword by Hermann J. Hendrich

“…the texts by Renner printed in ‘werkstatt aspekt 1’, such as ‘poesie 37’ and ‘poesie 38’, today read like abridgements and condensations of literary intentions in comparison with the contemporaneous works of Bayer, Rühm or Gomringer.”
“Renner wrote a poem in 1980 entitled ‘wange an rinde’ which, in its basic—yet hermetic—form, expresses what we, members of this generation, excluded from our own participation in political and social events—whether out of restraint or from prudent foresight—feel, and can still hear as an underlying tone.”
