Jennie Ottinger (American, b. 1971)
Untitled
Acrylic on paper, framed
18 × 24 in.

Ottinger holds a BFA from California College of the Arts and an MFA from Mills College. Represented by Rebecca Camacho Presents, San Francisco.

Ottinger paints the small awkward rituals of daily life — doctor visits, uniformed processions, figures caught in the middle of something they can't quite explain. Her paintings draw from documentary photography and historical images, filtering American life through a distorted, slightly off-kilter lens. The figures are rendered loosely enough that you recognize the situation before you recognize the people.
