Rex Ray's highly collectible artwork is coveted in design as well as art circles. His color-bursting, curvaceous art graces the walls of high-design hotels, world-class museums, and hip restaurants, yet remains, as acclaimed author Douglas Coupland puts it in his foreword, "unslick, but superslick at the same time." Abstract and handcrafted, with a retro-futuristic mid-century feel, Rex Ray's meditations on fluid forms are a rare combination of sophistication and decorative appeal. The first monograph to survey his multi-faceted work in various media—including paper cutouts, mixed-media collages, paintings, digital prints, and the highly admired graphic design and music packaging that launched his visual career—Rex Ray is a veritable trove of his sleek yet playful aesthetic. Rex Ray is a San Francisco based fine artist whose paintings and drawings have been exhibited in numerous galleries and museums. He is also a celebrated graphic designer.

    Thanks so much for this video...very inspiring to me. The small pieces you started with, and the process of working every night, 'liberating' yourself, was a very important idea to me! I needed a push with my wallpaper collages and this is it! Christine Michels

    I love your work. I recently visited Jonathan Abbott in Sloane Avenue, London and saw some of your pieces. I fell in love with them and now I'm just trying to justify which I should have them! Wonderful work. Congratulations. Christine Foster

    Rex you are so coool- saw you on PBS. Like the story about your sweet doggie- and of course your lovely art. You are such a doer. I am an artist also, earning my credential to teach art- one more semester. Do you ever visit classrooms? You are so inspirational, you should. Glad you are here on this planet and keep up the wondrous work. J. Mills
