Corinne Imberski
Corinne Imberski is a Chicago based dance performer, choreographer, improviser, and educator. As an independent dance artist, Corinne has presented solo and ensemble works for over thirty years at venues grand, small, impromptu, and digital. Although she is primarily a live performance artist, since 2020 she has experimented with dance on film. She is currently at work on a film project through a residency from See Chicago Dance, and was also commissioned by the Walder Foundation and Experimental Sound Studio to create works for livestreams in 2022. In April 2020, Corinne started the film project Roof Series 2020-2021 as a response to life in quarantine and crisis. She has taught and staged her choreography throughout the country, including at the University of Michigan, Northwestern University, Columbia College Chicago, Grand Valley State University, American College Dance Festival, Links Hall, Midwest RAD Fest, Harvest Chicago Contemporary Dance Festival, and the Toledo Museum of Art. Corinne is a grateful recipient of the 2020 Meier Achievement Award, an award given to Chicago-area artists each year by the Helen Coburn Meier and Tim Meier Charitable Foundation for the Arts. She was nominated as “Best Dancer” and “Best Choreographer” in the 2021 Chicago Reader’s Best of Chicago poll. In addition to presenting her own work, Corinne is also a long-time company member of RE|dance group (Chicago, IL), and has performed and collaborated with Ayako Kato/Art Union Humanscape (Chicago, IL), Peter Sparling (Ann Arbor, MI), DDCdances (Detroit, MI), Ann Arbor Dance Works (Ann Arbor, MI), and HNM Dance Company (Windsor, Ontario).
