Artavazd Karamyan (Armenian: Արտավազդ Քարամյան, born 14 November 1979), commonly known as Artyom Karamyan, is a retired Armenian-Romanian footballer and former international for the Armenian national team. Artavazd is the twin brother of fellow football player Arman Karamyan.

Artavazd Karamyan began playing football as a senior in 1996. That year, both he and his younger brother Arman Karamyan joined Arabkir. In 1997, they both made their way to Pyunik Yerevan. Artavazd was a part of Pyunik when they won the Armenian Premier League in 2001 and 2002, the Armenian Cup in 2002 and Armenian Supercup in 1997 and 2002. Both brothers moved to Kilikia Yerevan in 1999 and back to Pyunik in 2001. They both joined the Football League (Greece) in 2003 when they both signed with Panachaiki Patras. From 2003 to 2004, they both played in Ukrainian Premier League club Arsenal Kyiv. Artavazd and Arman both joined Liga I club Rapid Bucureşti in 2004. While Artavazd would remain in the club for a number of seasons, Arman left that season. While Artavazd was playing for the club, Rapid Bucureşti became finalists in the 2005–06 Divizia A championship and won the Cupa României in 2005–06 and 2006–07. The club also made it to the quarterfinals of the 2005–06 UEFA Cup. Both Artavazd and Arman reunited in the club Politehnica Timişoara in 2007. The next season, the club was a finalist in the 2008–09 Liga I championship.
