Mosaics
A comprehensive article about Ray’s mosaic work, “Sacred Art,” was researched and written by Dave Weinstein, and published in CA Modern. It is available here. And a list of projects from the 1950s is available here: Ray-Rice-projects.
For some of the thinking behind the Art and Architecture Movement of the 1950-60s in the San Francisco Bay Area, read Rice’s article in WESTERN ARCHITECT AND ENGINEER from July 1960.
