Artist Bio:
Josephine Langbehn is a Nebraska artist engaged in multiple disciplines. She is a painter and arts educator. Using historical photographs as a starting point, she paints portraits of people to piece together stories of past lifetimes to connect to people in the present. The paintings become opportunity for dialog to listen to peoples lived experiences. Taking an image that has been cherished through the years or those discarded and forgotten, she paints the images on a larger scale giving a moment to reminiscence and reflect. Josephine’s paintings have been exhibited in regional exhibitions across the state of Nebraska and in the Midwest including; Salina Biennial, LaLa, Omaha Summer Arts Mural Cube Project, National Art Education Association Juried Exhibition, Nebraska Artist Biennial, and PACE New Masters Exhibition. In addition, she just completed her first solo show in March of 2025 at Ming Toy Gallery. She holds a BA and MA in education from the University of Nebraska at Omaha. Josephine currently resides in Omaha working in her studio at Hot Shops Art Center.
