Justine Otto: New Traditionalists
No Customer Reviews
Justine Otto (b. Zabrze, Poland, 1974; lives and works in Hamburg and Berlin) is one of the most promising artists on the contemporary painting scene. An aficionado of the absurd, she unfolds a metaphysical-psychedelic and often gaudily lustrous cosmos in pictures in which representation clashes with abstraction. In her early work, girls, women, and animals were here preferred subjects; more recently, she has painted heroes-- the protagonists in myths of masculinity. After generals, officers, and strategists, she has now turned her attention to cowboys, who appear on horseback or resting under a tree, musical instrument in hand. Justine Otto studied fine art and painting with Peter Angermann and Michael Krebber at the State Academy of Fine Arts (St? delschule) in Frankfurt am Main and obtained an MFA in 2003. She also worked as a scene designer at St? dtische B? hnen Frankfurt, the city's municipal theater company. Her paintings are held by collections including the Hessisches Landesmuseum, Darmstadt; Museum Franz Gertsch, Burgdorf, Switzerland; and the Phillips Art Collection, Washington, D.C.
