Emily L. Spratt (born April 27, 1984) is an American art historian, curator, critic, and strategic advisor. She is known for her work on Byzantine and Post-Byzantine art, cultural heritage preservation, and the use of machine learning in the arts.

She did undergraduate studies at Cornell University, followed by an M.A. in Byzantine Art History at UCLA and an M.A. in Renaissance and Baroque Art History at Princeton University. She is completing her Ph.D. at Princeton University under Professor Patricia Fortini Brown with a thesis on the legacy of Byzantium in the Early Modern Period.

Spratt is considered an authority on the intersection of art, society, and artificial intelligence. In October 2017, she curated “Unhuman: Art in the Age of AI” in Frankfurt and Los Angeles, the first exhibition of art created with deep learning techniques by the AICAN algorithm, which Artsy declared the “biggest artistic achievement of the year.”
