Jacqueline Humphries (born November 17, 1960, in New Orleans) is a renowned American abstract painter married to Tony Oursler.[1] She is known for her large-scale paintings that reference the history of abstraction, combining traditional painterly techniques with contemporary technologies. She has used metallic silver pigment to suggest the glow of a cinema screen, and has incorporated emoticons, emoji, kaomoji, and CAPTCHA tests into recent works that draw on digital communication.[2] Other paintings are produced by scanning her earlier canvases, translating them into ASCII character code, and using custom laser-cut stencils of the resulting images as the basis for new paintings.[3] Humphries lives and works in New York City, where she is represented by Greene Naftali Gallery.[4]

John Kelsey described this exhibition in Artforum as "the most memorable painting show in New York".[7][8][9] Humphries's first comprehensive solo presentation at a United States museum took place at the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh in 2015, and later travelled to the Contemporary Arts Center (New Orleans).[10][11] Her work is in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Art Institute of Chicago; and Tate Modern, London.[3][12][13][14][15]
