Y. Z. Kami: Works 1985–2018, a new comprehensive monograph on the artist, explores the breadth of Kami's work, from his early figure studies and photographic works to his portraits, Dome paintings, sculpture, and works on paper. The publication includes texts by leading scholars and curators Robert Storr, Laura Cumming, and Elena Geuna. Storr considers the unique 'aura' of Kami's work in relation to ideas of the unknown and unseen. Cumming discusses his carefully rendered human faces, and their hidden subjectivities. And a conversation between Geuna and Kami sheds light on his influences, past experiences, and conceptual approaches to oil paint itself.
