Biography
Ana Kamien (born in 1935) is an Argentine dancer, choreographer, and actor who based most of her works in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Kamien was known for challenging gender and class norms along with creating works that parodied classical ballet by mixing the dance style with contemporary dance.
Kamien is best known for her self-titled piece Ana Kamien (1970), a 16mm dance film she produced with the help of filmmaker Marcelo Epstein. Rodrigo Alonso, an art critic and historian, described the piece as "not only one of the first examples of dance for the camera in Argentina: it is also one of the best."
