Jennie C. Jones

1968–

Introduction

Jennie C. Jones (born 1968) is an American artist best known for her abstract works in painting, sculpture, and sound art. Much of Jones's work is inspired by minimalism and color field painting, along with jazz and avant-garde music.

As an artist, she connects most of her work between visual art and sound. Such connections are made with multiple mediums, from paintings to sculptures and paper to audio collages. Jones has won an array of prizes and grants for her work, including the Joyce Alexander Wien Prize in 2012.

A survey exhibition of Jones's work is currently on view at the Pulitzer Arts Foundation in St. Louis until February 2026.
