For nearly 50 years, artist Robert J. Andrews has devoted his life to creating magnificent mosaic icons for dozens of churches across the United States in Massachusetts, California, Arizona, New York, Washington, Utah, and Indiana, and the St. Sofia (Holy Wisdom) Cathedral in London.  One of his master works is the Transfiguration of the Saviour Greek Orthodox Church in Lowell, MA, where his glittering mosaics adorn the church from floor to ceiling. He was the resident iconographer for 43 years at Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church in San Francisco, where his crowning achievement is the 3,400-square-foot "Christ Pantocrator" icon in the dome. In this program, Mr. Andrews will discuss his creative process, show samples of his work, and screen the short film Holy Trinity's Pantocrator: The Ultimate Mosaic. The film provides an inside look into the complex installation of the largest mosaic face of Jesus in the Western Hemisphere.
