Working primarily as a painter, over the past decade Aram has expanded his practice to include sculpture and collage, and he has employed wall painting as a form of exhibition design to unify these mediums in his exhibitions.\u003cbr\u003eAram moved with his family to the US seven years after the Iranian Revolution and entered graduate school in 2001, where mentors such as Coco Fusco and Charline von Heyl imparted to Aram a politically minded and resilient work ethic. He has never lost touch with those paradigms, and his art engages critically with terms such as Western and non-Western.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kamrooz Aram\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0935875344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780935875348\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Blum Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/04\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.50h x 10.30w x 0.80d","brand":"Kamrooz Aram","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44120433524991,"sku":"9780935875348","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8ed2f3d1-52d0-40e4-85c7-f844184baeee.jpg?v=1687414287","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/kamrooz-aram-kamrooz-aram-9780935875348","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
