work of the week emily kam kngwarray 2657807

Artnet News's "Work of the Week" highlights Emily Kam Kngwarray's painting *Desert Storm* (1992), currently on view at Pace London as part of the exhibition "My Country." Painted midway through her career, the work marks a stylistic shift from intricate dotting to broader strokes and expansive color fields. The piece is priced between $1 million and $1.5 million, aligning with the artist's auction record of $1.3 million (AUD $2.1 million) for *Earth's Creation I* (1994), sold at Cooee Art Gallery in 2017. The exhibition is organized with D'Lan Contemporary, which has branches in New York, Melbourne, and Sydney, and 10 percent of proceeds will support the Utopia community, in addition to the Artist Resale Right returned to Kngwarray's estate.
