About the Artist 

Karen Kucharski

 

 Artist Statement

 "I am drawn to light and movement as artistic focal points.  Inspired by Tango dancing, I saw in its beauty of form the attributes of symbolic partnership, independent balance with shared reward, and  exquisite atmoshpere befitting the dance of love."       ~Karen Kucharski

 

Karen has been dancing the Tango since the mid-90s and has studied in New York City, Montreal, Buenos Aires, and Ithaca, with such notable Tangueros as Argentine Film Star Pablo Veron, and Ithaca's Matej Oresic.  Karen teaches accessible methods to the fundamental building blocks of the dance based on her art and dance experience; she also offers Art Workshops.
