Timeline

Dawn Kramer is a choreographer, performer, artistic director, and teacher based in Boston, MA.

She is notable as an experimental artist combining movement, props, environments, and interactive video.

She is a professor emeritus in the Studio for Interrelated Media at the Massachusetts College of Art and Design.

She inspired generations of interdisciplinary artists with her classes, particularly the course "On The Spot", which many remember as transformative.

Currently, Dawn creates & performs in site-specific videos, and travels extensively.

1963

Kramer graduated from White Plains High School with highest honors in 1963.

She was a scholarship student at the Martha Graham Center of Contemporary Dance in New York City in the early 60's. Kramer attended Wellesley College from 1963–65, transferred to Sarah Lawrence College and earned a BA in dance/performing arts from Sarah Lawrence in 1967 where she studied with the late, renowned Bessie Schonberg.

She performed with Liz Keen's company at the Judson Church and with Muriel Manings in the late 60's, both in New York.

1970

After a year in San Francisco, Kramer moved to Boston in 1970 with her then husband and young son.

1973

In 1973, she co-founded Dance Collective and gave birth to her daughter in 1974.

Dawn Kramer is a founder of Dance Collective which she co-directed for thirty years, creating and/or performing in approximately seventy works.

In addition to Kramer, the significant forces in the company were Martha Armstrong Gary, Susan Dowling, Ruth Wheeler, Judith Chaffee, and Micki Taylor-Pinney.

Dance Collective's mission was to bring quality contemporary dance to a wide variety of audiences in various settings and to provide educational programs to people of all ages and abilities.

The Summer Outreach Program and Intergenerational Company gave urban teens the chance to work alongside professional dancers, creating a program that toured the summer camps of Boston, performing for and teaching thousands of youngsters each summer.

That program has morphed into the Reach! program at Boston University, spearheaded by Micki Taylor-Pinney.

In addition to programs of works by several Dance Collective choreographers, the company assisted full-evening works by individual artistic directors.

2007

Since 2007, Kramer and Stephen Buck have been collaborating on pieces involving live performance and video projections on the performers.

In 2007-2008, Kramer appeared as "Ishtar" in John Holland's Lament for a Dead Companion in Boston and New York performances.

Dawn started dancing in the basement with her mother, to the radio, when she was four.

She choreographed her first dance at five and performed for anyone who would watch.

Admitted to her first formal dance class in kindergarten, because she knew her right from her left, her first "starring" role at six was as "the Princess Who Didn't Know How to Dance."

2008

Cracking premiered April 12, 2008 at the Pozen Center at Massachusetts College of Art and Design.

It was later performed at Boston University and Jordan Hall.

Katarina Miljkovic created the music, with performance by Kramer and video and lighting by Stephen Buck.

2009

This trio's second collaboration, Entanglement, was presented by the Cambridge Science Festival and Cyberarts in April and May, 2009.

Kramer's current choreography uses video projections on the performer(s) to reflect on the nature of choice, the relationship of body to self, age and gender, and to question the idea of the self as a solid, separate reality.

2010

In 2010, Kramer was awarded the Marilyn Pappas faculty grant from the MassArt Foundation to assist her visit to Kyoto where she made three silent video/movement poems in temple gardens.

The Bogliasco Foundation assisted her creation of Body of Water with a residency in Italy in fall, 2010.

All these pieces envision the human being as a small, non-dominant, or integrated element of Nature.

Kramer received several grants and awards from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Massachusetts Cultural Council and Artists Foundation, the LEF Foundation, among others.

A grant from the French Ministry of Culture enabled a three-month residency at the La Napoule Art Foundation in France.

There she collaborated with international artists and created an evening of solo work called, Vous Etes Ici! Ms. Kramer had the pleasure of performing in Meredith Monk's Celebration Service in Cambridge and in From the Horse's Mouth at Jacob's Pillow and Brandeis University.

2011

Body of Water premiered June, 2011 in the Pozen Center and Godine gallery at Massachusetts College of Art and Design.

The work included installation of six silent video/movement poems, two videos by Buck and live performance by Kramer in a video projection environment.

2012

In 2012, the Massachusetts Cultural Council awarded Dawn Kramer an Artist Fellowship in Choreography.

This is the sixth fellowship that the Commonwealth has awarded her since she established her career base in Boston.

The grant enabled Kramer and Stephen Buck to create seven site-specific performance videos in Ireland, France, and Sicily during a sabbatical semester.

2013

These seven short videos were shown in the Paine Gallery in Boston in 2013.

Kramer's live choreography has appeared on 15' high scaffolding (Pipe Dream) and vast rope nets (After Ever), in sites as varied as the Back Bay Train Station and the stairway of the Boston Public Library.

Her work has been performed at Jacob's Pillow, Dance Theatre Workshop in NYC, and in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, and France as well as throughout New England.
