Jesper Just (born 1974 in Copenhagen, Denmark) is a Danish contemporary artist whose filmic and installation-based practice investigates the emotional and spatial dynamics of human relations, desire, gender, and the performative construction of identity. Educated at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen (1997–2003), Just is internationally recognized for his visually rich and conceptually layered works that blur the boundaries between cinema, performance, and architecture. His films are known for their meticulous compositions, poetic ambiguity, and exploration of social and psychological tension.

Over the past two decades, Just has presented solo exhibitions at major museums and galleries worldwide, including Palais de Tokyo in Paris, the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, MAC Lyon, Galleri Nicolai Wallner in Copenhagen, and Galerie Perrotin in Paris, New York, and Hong Kong. In 2013, he represented Denmark at the 55th Venice Biennale with his acclaimed project Intercourses. Recent exhibitions include Interfears (2023–2024), shown at MAC Lyon, Perrotin New York, the RAY Triennale in Frankfurt, and the Thessaloniki Film Festival, as well as participation in the 17th Lyon Biennale and the 60th October Salon in Belgrade.

Jesper Just’s works are held in major public and private collections and have been featured in numerous international biennials and exhibitions across Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Through a distinctive cinematic language combining sound, movement, and architecture, his art continues to probe the complexities of contemporary subjectivity and the subtle politics of representation.
