What I found really compelling about this video on this artist was how it wasn't just a static interview in a fixed setting but was instead him talking about his life, what artists inspired him and the works they made that resonated with him, his work and his philosophy on art and how that developed and evolved over time all while he was in the midst of working on new pieces.
I love his work and strongly relate to some of the ideas regarding work, manic/panic, abstraction and more. One of my favourite artists ever since the Raf Simons collaboration.
Very interesting video. I enjoyed his telking about his life and ideas of life and art and to watch him work and got curious about his art. And it is a kind of fun and at the same time interesting criteria for success of an art piece “how manic it feels” - and very sharp point on abstract art versus realistic art that the abstract art now is about experience in the real world. A new kind of realism - I think that is very true. Its about feeling and experience and the mystic of expression - and how we relate and communicate experiences of significance .
fuck this is what i needed to hear right now. ive been working in electrical for 3 years now and one week ago today i quit. sometimes you need to put yourself first
Humble guy. This man was also the most amazing skateboarder, too. He was a camp counselor at woodward in 93 or 94 and i think he rode for Planet Earth skateboards, if this is the same Sterling Rudy. It has to be?. He had an amazing style on mini ramp. I still think of him when doing tue best big frontside ollies to disasters or hurricanes. I’m so jealous of these guys who shine at everything they do. Fortunately or unfortunately, Im certainly not one of them.
This is outstanding! Thank you! (By the way, I was doing something similar to what SR is making and talks about at the end in grad school. ONE person got it; a visiting artist/mentor, Michelle Grabner. Otherwise, I got scoffed at by my professor. So it makes me feel a bit redeemed to hear SR talk about it as New Realism now.)
Just bought the Dagen book, as your description was so touching that I have to learn more. I too have felt a new type of kinship in painting that doesn't look like what it has come before, most of it looks like remnants. To see those incredible folding stretchers is wild too. So Thanks Louisiana Museum for this incredible video that not only goes in depth to his new work but also to his studio life.
bruce nauman was an early revelation for me too. I think I saw him at North Carolina Museum of Art or something when I was a kid in the 80's and it was one of those early liberations, more than Duchamp or the Surrealists or any of that. Dada was a little on the same level but earlier in the timeline.
Could somebody refer me to the Art critic he mentions around 14:00. I can't seem to find an art critic named Philipp Degen on google. Thanks in advance!!
the guy is rollering a dozen or so canvases that will get a couple scraps sewn on, and sell for $100,000 each at fiac or frieze .. the art world is insane, and rather interesting for that
gregorylent why is it that when there's a talk about art, in particular abstract art, focus shifts to monetary value, numbers? value of art is a whole other ballgame. we have a guy here who paints his life's experience and bares his soul for all to see, why dont we talk about that instead,, about life through the eyes of dedicated artists...
to perhaps make it more interesting for you, if you or i did these particular pieces, we could not sell them for the cost of the materials .. the difference between mr ruby and you or i is the thing we call "the art world" .. it is a very interesting thing to look at, visit, or participate in .. there is also no correlation between the quality of the life experiences and the value of the art .. stress sells as much as does transcendence ... the last point, the art world runs on money ..
@@gregorylent sorry, still not interesting. you are talking politics, money... the whole world is ran on, not just art. when it comes to those that create, artists... politics is separate. neither of us create to appease the art establishment. we battle with the essence of who we are, which is priceless. respect to all genuine artists.
On one hand I don’t want to like him because I’m fed of this kind of macho, big, American white man art, but he always comes across as a down to earth and likeable guy in interviews. Also I liked the story when he refused to hand in his dissertation at the end of his MFA so technically was not awarded his degree. Artists who stick their middle finger up at their art school get bonus points from me 😂
what's so macho about him? I think he has enough awareness to show that it's pretty unfair to make a caricature of his origins and identity the way you did

We used to skateboard a lot in the 80’s. Skateboarding was his life. Fantastic dude!
'a little ashamed of being an artist so embedded a labour aspect.'
a really smart guy
Nothing better to explain how abstract is the mirror of reality thank you for sharing
What a down to earth great artist!!
I love his work and strongly relate to some of the ideas regarding work, manic/panic, abstraction and more. One of my favourite artists ever since the Raf Simons collaboration.
I worked construction right out of high school and noticed that guys that were young looked old. This made me go to college. I can relate to this guy.
WHAT A GREAT INTERVIEW ... GREAT TESTIMONY ... SO HUMBLE ... FANTASTIC ! 🙏

seems to be a super interesting human being to have a talk with! congrats and thanks for sharing!

love this video i watched it like 6 times
I have so much sympathy for this guy, !!! + his name perfectly fits him
bruce nauman was an early revelation for me too.

just googled his stuff > amazing portfolio, such beautiful artwork!!! + sick clothing ✨👊💛
some day, when we humans figure out meeting daily necessities we will all be like him. endeavering instead of slavering.
When he's talking about growing up in PA, I feel like he's describing my whole life in rural Ohio.
His greatest talent is he knows how to work the system. Good for him.
Amazing and beautiful work. I love it"
Incredible soul Ruby 🔥
Superb videos.
Are you an artist
Quality guy, quality channel.
interesting his repeated use of the word "manic" .. have always felt his work to have a lot of stress in it, the "stress on the walls" category of art
Not so many artists at his level talk the truth.
School sucks my man!!! 🔥
Beautiful！✨
Your words touches things incredibly similar to my damn life
Love the name💟
Could somebody refer me to the Art critic he mentions around 14:00. I can't seem to find an art critic named Philipp Degen on google. Thanks in advance!!
Philippe Dagen
Why not to show finished artwork that video started with as being created?
Great interview though.
Nice
Brennan and Skeletrix led me here
How does he get his denim to look like that
Acid and mineral washes. He has a whole wearable art brand called S.R. STUDIO. LA. CA. ! Very expensive but very cool
He’s really cool
yes !!
Is that his real name? I always wanted to know
Yes… I grew up with him.
❤
14:20 Funny You said That & thats 100% what i Do
Yves Klein was another one.

He is a mean bully in the art world. Disliked misogynist.
??
Ouch, well, he’s just one of those artists that’s better to look at the work than listen to him talk about it, I think
Why? I think he’s profound.
U think?
