Daniel Traub

The theory that great art comes from great pain just may be validated in Daniel Traub’s moving documentary about Ursula von Rydingsvard, the acclaimed sculptor whose massive works reflect a past she continues to grapple with and explore. Born in Germany in 1942, von Rydingsvard was one of seven children. Her father was physically and emotionally abusive, and she admits she’s grateful she was able to channel her anger and pain creatively.
