Dancing With the Bear | Russ Rubin | TEDxUnity Park

How do you dance with a bear? Russ Rubin is an internationally acclaimed artist and advocate for connection with art. In his TEDxUnityPark Talk, Russ dives deep the idea of putting yourself out there. Russ proposes that the lifestyle of an artist can sometimes be challenging and difficult to understand, but it is more relatable to people than meets the eye. Expressed in his series, "Temporary Cure for Existential Dread", Russ uses his perception and talent to create a whimsical escape from the common pressures that we feel every day. He encourages us all to dance with the bear in your own unique way. Russ Rubin (b. 1983) is a self-taught artist from the exotic woods of New Jersey. ‘Temporary Cure for Existential Dread,’ his series of abstract landscapes on wood in found porthole frames, has been shown in New York, London, Miami, Houston and Hong Kong. A short documentary titled ‘Temporary Dread,’ as well as a new series of absurdist art films involving the artist and a menagerie of hand painted garage sale animals is forthcoming. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
