- Karen Jamieson (born July 10, 1946) is a Canadian dancer, choreographer, and mentor located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. She is the founder and artistic director of Karen Jamieson Dance Company, a non-profit contemporary dance company formed in 1983. Today, Karen Jamieson Dance supports the practice, research, creation, and production of dance with a focus on legacy work, which includes the passing on of dance practices and ideas to emerging generations of artists through body transcription, work with scholars, mentorships, oral history, and archiving. In 2022, Karen Jamieson Dance launched its first oral history and archival research project entitled Coming Out of Chaos: A Vancouver Dance Story, which looks at the impact of Jamieson's 1982 piece, Coming Out of Chaos, on the emergence of contemporary dance in Vancouver from the 1960s to the present day. As of 2022, Jamieson has created over 100 dance works with original scores by over 20 Canadian composers, and has performed her work in Canada, Europe, Japan, and the United States. Her work Sisyphus was named one of the 10 Canadian choreographic masterworks of the 20th century by Dance Collection Danse, and multi-year projects with the Haida village of Skidegate B.C. and with the residents of Vancouver's Downtown Eastside are recognized nationally as groundbreaking in the field of community-engaged and cross-cultural dance.
