Rex Ray: Art + Design [signed] [first edition]

The decorative quality of artist Rex Ray's highly collectible work has made it coveted in interior design as well as high-art circles. His colour-bursting, curvaceous art graces the walls of hip hotels and gourmet restaurants, yet it remains, as acclaimed author Douglas Coupland puts it in his foreword, unslick, but superslick at the same time. Meditations on repeated fluid forms, abstract yet handmade, with a retro-futuristic mid-century feel, Rex Ray's art is a rare combination of sophisticated and visually pleasing. The first monograph to span his career 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 - this is a trove of his sleek and lovely aesthetic.
