Cinzia Cremona is an artist and researcher born in Como, Italy, in 1968.

Her videoperformances and networked performances focusing on relationships, intimate and social interactions form an original body of work that extends to networked practice and on-line performance. Her work has been exhibited in Europe, USA, Russia and Japan.
Since 2013 she has been a research fellow at Duncan of Jordanston College of Art and Design (University of Dundee). The book Rewind Italia: Early Italian Video Art was published by John Libbey Publishing in 2015 and includes her chapter Authorship, collaborations and international contaminations: Videoperformance in Italy in the ‘70s.
Cinzia Cremona has been involved in developing collaborations, practice-based research strategies focused on socially engaged practice, shared knowledge production, expanded performative events, participatory art practices, and alternative collaborative methodologies.
She has been an active member of the research cluster Critical Practice based at Chelsea College of Art and Design (UAL) and co-curator of the moving image and performance exhibition Visions in the Nunnery at the Nunnery Gallery, London, since 2007, as well as organizing related events, discussions and symposia, and publishing reviews and essays.
