Jennie C. Jones Catalogue

Jennie C. Jones explores the intersections between the visual and the acoustic with paintings, sculptures, drawings, and installations. Her work engages with histories of the avant-garde in art and music, including conceptualism, minimalism, and Black experimental sonic traditions. Jones has developed a highly distilled visual vocabulary, primarily working with abstract geometric forms and a focused range of colors. She uses nontraditional materials such as felt, acoustic panels, and instrument strings to make paintings and sculptures that modify the acoustics of their environments, amplifying our attention to the spaces that surround us. These ideas come to the forefront in an exhibition of new and existing work titled Jennie C. Jones: A Line When Broken Begins Again, as well as Jones’s curatorial debut, Other Octaves, which traces a loose network of artists and composers of personal significance to her.

An exhibition catalogue will be released in February 2026. In addition to new essays by curator Stephanie Weissberg and Jones, the catalogue also brings together writings by Jones on multiple artists included in Other Octaves. This catalogue is richly illustrated with installation views as well as images of dozens of paintings, sculptures, and works on paper featured in both shows.
