Jana Farmanová (born 1970) is a Slovak contemporary figurative painter who has been called one of the most influential painters of contemporary Slovak and Czech art scene.

Farmanová has been active in the visual arts since the late 1990s, after studying at Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava, Slovakia.

Her work has been displayed at the Bratislava City Gallery in Bratislava, Nitra Gallery in Nitra, Slovakia, Wannieck Gallery of Modern Art in Brno, Czech Republic, Olomouc Museum of Art in Olomouc, Czech Republic, and the Sammlung Würth collection in Germany. In 2012 Slovart publishing house and Krokus Gallery published the monograph of Farmanová's artwork, with text by Czech art-historian Petr Vaňous, author Eva Borušovičová and poet Mila Haugová.[1]
