Justine Otto (b. 1974, Zabrze, Poland) lives and works in Hamburg, Germany. Otto creates layered imagery with loose, vibrant brushwork. Drawing inspiration from films and vintage photographs, she paints single figures, or groups, immersed in mysterious activities. The artist’s enigmatic narratives are humorous, edgy and captivating.

Justine Otto’s works are featured in the permanent collection of The Phillips Collection, Washington, DC, and in numerous private collections in the U.S. and Europe. She has had solo exhibitions in many museums and public venues including: Kunsthalle der Sparkassenstiftung Lüneburg, Lüneburg, Germany; Kunstverein Duisburg, Duisburg, Germany; Städtische Galerie Neunkirchen, Neunkirchen, Germany; Museum Franz Gertsch, Burgdorf, Switzerland; Städtische Galerie Eichenmüllerhaus, Lemgo, Germany; Städtische Galerie Fürth, Fürth, Germany; Kunstverein Aurich, Aurich, Germany; and Museum Schloss Gifhorn, Gifhorn, Germany.
