SUMMARY:Vivian Silvera\, MFA\, presented by The Artist Study Group
DESCRIPTION:See Memory:  On enriching self-narrative\nVIVIANE SILVERA\, MFA\nA film and discussion held in person at the Institute and live\, online\, presented by The Artist Study Group.\nTHURSDAY\, OCTOBER 5th\, 2023  \nfrom 1:30-3:00PM/Eastern\nJoin us in person at the Institute Library at 20 West 74th Street\nor via zoom at:  https://wawhite.zoom.us/j/8180152948?pwd=cDkrUTlMSndQendyZzhnc054c0tpQT09\n  \nThe Artist Study Group presents a screening and discussion of See Memory\, a 15-minute animated film made from 30\,000 hand-painted images about the mind. \nThrough the film’s visual and narrative journey\, artist\, director and narrator Viviane Silvera explores the dynamics and subtleties of the imagination\, remembering\, trauma\,  emotional experience and therapeutic presence. The film gives voice to the experience of story-telling; understanding disrupted\, fragmented\, repetitive\, or retrieved memories through a unifying lens of art and science. \nHaving rigorously trained in the visual and plastic arts\, Silvera has exhibited her work internationally and nationally. Her documentary\, See Memory premiered at the Imagine Science Film Festival and since its release has screened at the Helix Center\, The Friedman Brain Institute and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. She graduated with a BS in Political Science and Psychology from Tufts University and an MFA from the New York Academy of Arts\, Silvera is the founder of On Art\, which makes New York’s intimate art world accessible through public and private tours. She is currently at work on a film series\, Feel Memory\, which combines hand painted animation with live action\, archival and first-person narrationto tell the stories of people who are trapped by traumatic memory and freed by imagination. \nWe look forward to a lively discussion of the film’s evocative multi-sensory portrait of the conscious and unconscious mind in a language that is saturated with visual and auditory images\, metaphor and poetry. \nNote that if you plan to attend either in person or via Zoom\, you should RSVP to:   fvdillon@gmail.com \nFrances V. Dillon\, MSW and Eric Dammann\, PhD\,  Co-Directors\, The Artist Study Group\n

SUMMARY:Sam Guzzardi\, LCSW  - LGBTQ Study Group
DESCRIPTION:For many of us\, an empathic stance towards our patients forms the foundation of how we practice.  This paper problematizes the typical psychoanalytic conceptualization of empathy as requiring the analyst to find something in themselves that resonates with the patient’s experience. Self-reference\, it is argued\, is both a limiting and potentially colonizing stance towards the patient’s otherness. Leaning on learnings from queer theory\, Black studies\, French philosophy\, and the Black American theater\, this paper argues for a revised empathy anchored in the concept of passibility rather than self-reference. \nSam Guzzardi\, LCSW is a member and graduate of the Institute for Psychoanalytic Study of Subjectivity in New York and a faculty member at the National Institute for the Psychotherapies.  He has a diverse practice where he is curious about questions of queerness\, identity\, development\, and trauma\, and has recently published papers in the Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association and Psychoanalytic Dialogues.  His 2022 publication “The Only Fag Around: Twinship in Gay Childhood\,” which details his attempt to integrate Kohutian and Freudian principles in the treatment of a gay man\, was the winner of the Ralph E Roughton Paper Award.  Sam’s scholarship often revolves around his interest in comparative psychoanalysis and in placing psychoanalytic theory in dialogue with ideas from other traditions\, including disciplines such as queer theory\, post-colonial studies\, performance studies and literature. \n  \nFor inquiries regarding the LGBTQ Study Group please contact  \nEsin Egit\, PhD: e.egit@wawhite.org \nWilla France: poetadmiral@earthlink.net

SUMMARY:ELIZABETH ANN DANTO\, PhD  and DANIEL JOSÉ GAZTAMBIDE\, PsyD with DISCUSSANT: PASCAL SAUVAYRE\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:DISTURBING THE SLEEP OF THE WORLD: PSYCHOANALYSIS\, SOCIAL AWAKENING & RADICAL POLITICS\nThe Colloquium Series 2023-2024\, presented by the Psychoanalytic Society of the William Alanson White Institute\nThe Fundamental Radicalism of  Psychoanalysis from Freud to Fanon\nELIZABETH ANN DANTO\, PhD \nand DANIEL JOSÉ GAZTAMBIDE\, PsyD\nDISCUSSANT: PASCAL SAUVAYRE\, PhD\n\nAbout Dr. Danto’s Presentation: Class\, Conscious and Unconscious\n“In your private political opinions you might be a Bolshevist\,” Ernest Jones wrote to Sigmund Freud in 1926\, “but you would not help the spread of Y to announce it.” Freud’s modernist views on social justice and the right to mental health care had triggered Jones’s discomfort. Today\, despite ample evidence that the free psychoanalytic clinics of Europe in the 1920s and 30s did enact Freud’s views\, Jones’ concerns continue to underlie the cultural tenacity of his class-based narrative.\n  \nAbout Dr. Gaztambide’s Presentation: Racial Capitalism as Psychoanalysis’ Unconscious Underside: Clinical Lessons from Freud\, Du Bois\, and Fanon\nCedric Robinson coined the term “racial capitalism” to underscore the racial underpinnings of capitalism today\, drawing on the insights of the Black Radical Tradition before and after W.E.B. Du Bois’ groundbreaking work. Little known is Du Bois’ engagement with psychoanalysis\, and how his and Freud’s theorizing on race and class present an undertheorized parallelism on how the unconscious is formed within social location. This presentation will draw on the “missed encounter” between psychoanalysis and the Black Radical Tradition encapsulated in Frantz Fanon’s work\, revealing to us not only a theory of race and class\, but its application in contemporary clinical practice.\n  \nABOUT ELIZABETH ANN DANTO\, PhD\nElizabeth Ann Danto is professor emeritus\, Hunter College of the City University of New York. Dr. Danto is a writer and international lecturer on the history of psychoanalysis as a marker of urban culture. Her book Freud’s Free Clinics – Psychoanalysis & Social Justice\, 1918-1938 (Columbia University Press)\, won the Gradiva Award and the Goethe Prize. Other books include Historical Research (Oxford University Press) and the co-edited Freud/Tiffany – Anna Freud\, Dorothy Tiffany Burlingham and the ‘Best Possible School'” (Routledge – History of Psychoanalysis series).\nABOUT DANIEL GAZTAMBIDE\, PsyD\nDaniel José Gaztambide\, PsyD\, is assistant professor of clinical practice in the Department of Psychology at the New School for Social Research\, where he also directs the Frantz Fanon Lab for Intersectional Psychology. He is the author of the book A People’s History of Psychoanalysis: From Freud to Liberation Psychology. Dr. Gaztambide is in analytic training at the NYU Post-Doctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis\, and is a member of the Puerto Rican Poetry Troupe\, the Titere Poets.\nABOUT PASCAL SAUVAYRE\, PhD\nPascal Sauvayre is faculty and training analyst at the William Alanson White Institute. He studies\, teaches\, and writes at the intersection of psychoanalysis and philosophy. A recent project includes editing\, with Roger Frie\, the book entitled ‘Culture\, Politics\, and Race in the Making of Interpersonal Psychoanalysis’\, published at Routledge.  He has a private practice in New York City.

SUMMARY:Testimonies During Wartime: Lessons from Listeing to Extremity - A Ukrainian lecture
DESCRIPTION:Testimonies During Wartime: Lessons from Listening to Extremity\nСвідчення під час війни:  уроки вислуховування екстремального\nStevan Weine\, MD\npresented in Ukrainian by the Online Interpersonal Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Program for Mental Health Professionals from Ukraine\nABOUT THE TALK\nTestimony rests on a therapeutic ambition: If I tell my story\, I may remake not only myself\, but others too and perhaps even the larger public. Testimony is an imperfect balancing of the individual and the social\, the local and the universal\, the private and the public\, but it just might be good enough. Testimony’s seeming ability to “fuse” or create a shortcut between the private and public worlds\, combined with its considerable redemptive promise\, have given it a unique therapeutic and social power.  We will consider lessons from the testimonies of survivors of war and political violence in the 20th century\, including from Bosnia-Herzogovina\, and how they might inform the giving and receiving of testimonies involving those living through the war in Ukraine.\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nStevan Weine\, MD\, is Professor of Psychiatry at the College of Medicine of the University of Illinois Chicago\, where he is also Director of Global Medicine and Director of the Center for Global Health. For 30 years he has been conducting research both with refugees and migrants in the U.S. and in post-conflict countries\, focused on mental health\, health\, and violence prevention. This work has resulted in more than 130 publications and three books: When History is a Nightmare: Lives and Memories of Ethnic Cleansing in Bosnia-Herzegovina (1999); Testimony and Catastrophe: Narrating the Traumas of Political Violence (2006)\, and;  Best Minds: How Allen Ginsberg Made Revolutionary Poetry from Madness (2023) .\nПро лекцію\nСвідчення базується на терапевтичних амбіціях: якщо я розповім свою історію\, я можу переробити не лише себе\, але й інших і\, можливо\, навіть широку громадськість. Свідчення — це недосконалий\, але наскільки можливо хороший баланс між індивідуальним і суспільним\, локальним і універсальним\, приватним і публічним. Очевидна здатність Свідчення «поєднувати»\, або створювати зв’язок між приватним і публічним світом\, разом з його значущою обіцянкою викуплення\, надала йому унікальної терапевтичної та соціальної сили. Ми розглянемо уроки зі свідчень людей\, які пережили війну та політичне насильство у 20-му столітті\, в тому числі з Боснії та Герцоговини\, і те\, як вони можуть вплинути на надання та отримання свідчень за участю тих\, хто пережив війну в Україні.\nПро спікера\nСтівен Вайн\, доктор медичних наук\, є професором психіатрії в Медичному коледжі Іллінойського університету в Чикаго\, де він також є директором з глобальної медицини та директором Центру глобального здоров’я. Протягом 30 років він проводить дослідження з біженцями та мігрантами як в США\, так і в постконфліктних країнах\, зосереджуючись на фізичному і психічному здоров’ї та запобіганні насильству. Результатом цієї роботи стало понад 130 публікацій і три книги: When History is a Nightmare: Lives and Memories of Ethnic Cleansing in Bosnia-Herzegovina (1999); Testimony and Catastrophe: Narrating the Traumas of Political Violence (2006)\, and;  Best Minds: How Allen Ginsberg Made Revolutionary Poetry from Madness (2023).
