The painting is mostly black, with some 40 sharp lines in reds and pinks, yellows and oranges, light and dark blues, and greens and purples crisscrossing the canvas multiple times over. At either end are hazy bursts of color meant to represent the linked particles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cThere\u2019s a communication there, no matter what the distance is, and that\u2019s what I visualize, all these lines are lines of communication,\u201d Jaramillo said. Ultimately, she plans to display\u00a0<i>Quantum Entanglement<\/i>\u00a0opposite a similar size, overwhelmingly white painting that she refers to as its sister, and alongside five smaller paintings that visualize brain waves.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Virginia-Jaramillos-Studio-2018-Photo-by-Matthew-Jeffrey-Abrams-2.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 87.5rem) 1000px, (min-width: 78.75rem) 681px, (min-width: 48rem) 450px, (max-width: 48rem) 250px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.artnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Virginia-Jaramillos-Studio-2018-Photo-by-Matthew-Jeffrey-Abrams-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.artnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Virginia-Jaramillos-Studio-2018-Photo-by-Matthew-Jeffrey-Abrams-2.jpg?resize=400,267 400w\" alt=\"Jaramillo\u2019s studio in Hampton Bays, New York, which is attached to her home, includes two workstations, filled with art supplies.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-lazy-loaded=\"true\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"lrv-u-font-size-14@desktop\">Jaramillo\u2019s studio in Hampton Bays, New York, which is attached to her home, includes two workstations, filled with art supplies.<\/span><cite class=\"lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase lrv-u-color-grey\">PHOTO MATTHEW JEFFREY ABRAMS.<\/cite><\/p>\n<p><b>At age 81, Jaramillo is seeing\u00a0<\/b>a resurgence of interest in her work. Her first-ever solo museum exhibition opened at the\u00a0<a id=\"auto-tag_menil-collection\" href=\"https:\/\/www.atelierauction.com\/globalupdates\" data-tag=\"menil-collection\">Menil Collection<\/a>\u00a0in Houston last year, a show of eight paintings dating from 1969 to 1974, from her \u201cCurvilinear\u201d series. It was while she was creating those paintings that she had her greatest art-world exposure. She was included in the Whitney Annual in 1972. The previous year, she was the only woman, and the only Latina, to be included in \u201cThe De Luxe Show\u201d supported by the Menil Collection, one of the first racially integrated exhibitions in the U.S. Despite that, in the years that followed, her work was under-known to much of the mainstream art world, which Jaramillo attributes to the fact that she was a Mexican-American woman, and was married to an African-American man.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Her current survey at the Menil, on view through July 3, was timed to take place on the 50th anniversary of \u201cThe De Luxe Show.\u201d It\u2019s the latest in a series of accolades that has come late in life. Her art has been included in acclaimed group exhibitions like \u201cNow Dig This!: Art and Black Los Angeles, 1960\u20131980,\u201d at the Hammer Museum in 2011 and the traveling show \u201cSoul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power,\u201d which opened at Tate Modern in 2017. In November, she was\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.atelierauction.com\/globalupdates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">one of the winners<\/a>\u00a0of the annual Anonymous Was a Woman grant of $25,000, which goes to women artists over 40 as a boost to ensure they keep producing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Jaramillo wanted to be an artist for as long as she can remember. She spent her childhood in East Los Angeles drawing, re-creating images she found in magazines. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t something that I even thought about\u2014it was innate,\u201d she recalled. \u201cEven in school, I was always called\u00a0<i>Leonarda<\/i>,\u201d a reference to the Renaissance master.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">During high school, she and a select few other students were invited to spend some Saturdays at the studio of Charles and Ray Eames to watch their short films, like\u00a0<i>Blacktop: A Story of the Washing of a School Play Yard<\/i>\u00a0(1952) and\u00a0<i>Powers of Ten<\/i>\u00a0(1968). \u201cThose are films that even today stay with me because it was a different way of seeing,\u201d Jaramillo said. \u201cIt was my introduction to a philosophy of seeing\u2014the way of seeing form and structure and the way of form following function and being true to the form.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">After graduating from L.A.\u2019s Manual Arts High School (whose esteemed alumni also include Jackson Pollock and Philip Guston), Jaramillo achieved the kind of success that young artists dream of. When she was just 18, in 1959, one of her paintings was exhibited at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art as part of its \u201cAnnual\u201d series. The attention didn\u2019t do much to impress her. \u201cI said, \u2018Oh wow, now I\u2019m really big-time,\u2019\u201d she recalled of that time with a laugh. \u201cAnd no one could tell me anything.

The light is different there,\u2019\u201d Jaramillo recalled. \u201cAnd we said, \u2018What?\u2019\u2014here we are in California\u2014\u2018What do you mean the light is different? We have a lot of light here.\u2019 \u2018No,\u2019 they said, \u2018there\u2019s something magical about the light. You\u2019ll see.\u2019 So we went to Paris to see the light.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Her year in Paris proved influential. \u201cOh, it changed my entire way of thinking,\u201d Jaramillo said. She felt connected to the history of the city, and Europe more broadly, in particular the Gothic architecture. \u201cThe thing I realized was that in creating a painting, it\u2019s about the journey of the completion of the painting.\u201d She doubled down on her commitment to a process-based focus on abstraction, even when it came to priming the canvases and sanding them down herself. (She has never worked with assistants and has no plans to do so any time soon. \u201cUntil I need them I won\u2019t get them,\u201d she said, with a chuckle.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">In the late \u201960s, Jaramillo began work on her \u201cCurvilinear,\u201d or \u201cLine,\u201d paintings, each of which features a single line, or sometimes two or three, against a monochrome background. In\u00a0<i>Green Dawn<\/i>, completed in 1970, a wisp of yellow paint animates an emerald-green canvas. To look at them, you might think their execution was straightforward, but in fact they are the result of an extended process. Jaramillo would sit in front of an 8-by-10 pad and make 20 sketches of a single line before settling on one that would be suitable to star in a painting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cAs simple as they were, they were the most complex because it\u2019s hard to get to simplicity right away,\u201d Jaramillo said. \u201cThat\u2019s one of the hardest things to achieve. Sometimes, it would take weeks just to get that line the way I wanted. It had to be right\u2014it had to flow like a strand of hair.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/ \">\n<figure class=\"o-figure   aligncenter size-full wp-image-1234583825 lrv-u-max-width-100p\">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Virginia-Jaramillos-Studio-2018-Photo-by-Matthew-Jeffrey-Abrams-8.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 87.5rem) 1000px, (min-width: 78.75rem) 681px, (min-width: 48rem) 450px, (max-width: 48rem) 250px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.artnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Virginia-Jaramillos-Studio-2018-Photo-by-Matthew-Jeffrey-Abrams-8.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.artnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Virginia-Jaramillos-Studio-2018-Photo-by-Matthew-Jeffrey-Abrams-8.jpg?resize=400,267 400w\" alt=\"In Virginia Jaramillo\u2019s studio is an animal skull inside a box with a mirror.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-lazy-loaded=\"true\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"c-figcaption lrv-u-font-size-12 lrv-u-flex lrv-u-flex-direction-column lrv-u-padding-tb-025\"><span class=\"lrv-u-font-size-14@desktop\">In Virginia Jaramillo\u2019s studio is an animal skull inside a box with a mirror.<\/span><cite class=\"lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase lrv-u-color-grey\">PHOTO MATTHEW JEFFREY ABRAMS.<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">In the series that came next, her \u201cStained\u201d paintings, Jaramillo took that simplicity even further, making acrylics and oil paints behave like watercolors, the various shades bleeding into one another on the canvas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cI had gone to such a degree of elimination of the pictorial plane that even the line began to disappear\u2014everything just kind of melted and floated,\u201d she said. \u201cThat\u2019s when I saw that there was nothing holding this plane together, yet it existed. Why does it still really captivate?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The flow of color that she saw in her \u201cStained\u201d paintings led her in the late \u201970s and early \u201980s to begin making paper by hand, fusing strands of linen with pigment to compose blocklike shapes that would then be pressed together into a sheet. Her years spent learning how to make paper also allowed her to \u201cstep back and assess where I was going as an artist and how to use those methodologies to further what I wanted to say as a painter.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">As she enters her ninth decade, Jaramillo insists she has not paid much mind to the years when her art was not receiving as much attention as it could have. \u201cI was just doing the work,\u201d she said. \u201cThis is the truth, I never think about it\u2014I\u2019ve never let that hold me back. The system is geared for a minority person, especially an artist, to fail.
