Ottmar Hörl je nemecký konceptuálny umelec, sochár a autor inštalácií, akcií, fotografií a objektov. Celosvetovú popularitu si získal radikálnymi, avantgardnými umeleckými koncepciami a rozsiahlymi projektmi so sériovými sochami vo verejnom priestore, ktoré stavia na svojom vlastnom chápaní sochárstva ako organizačného princípu. Býva označovaný za útočného a priameho stratéga presadzujúceho nový typ umenia vo verejnom priestore a za najúspešnejšieho tvorcu umeleckých multiplov, teda umelca, ktorý ako málokto napĺňa predstavu umenia pre všetkých a demokratizácie sochárstva. Za prínos vo výtvarnom umení dostal viacero ocenení, naposledy cenu CREO Innovation Award, ktorú mu v roku 2015 udelila Nemecká spoločnosť pre kreativitu na Goetheho univerzite vo Frankfurte nad Mohanom. Od roku 1999 pôsobí ako profesor na Akadémii výtvarných umení v Norimbergu a od roku 2005 je jej prezidentom. Je tiež zakladajúcim členom skupiny Formalhaut. Žije a pracuje vo Wertheime, Frankfurte nad Mohanom a Norimbergu.
