SUMMARY:Dreaming and Imagining: Space as Participant in Humanizing the Other
DESCRIPTION:PRESENTED BY THE ARTIST STUDY GROUP OF THE PSYCHOTHERAPY SERVICE FOR PEOPLE IN THE ARTS\nTHURSDAY\, SEPTEMBER 5th from 1:30-3:00PM\nTOM HENNES\, INTERNATIONALLY RENOWNED EXHIBITION DESIGNER\nDreaming and Imagining:   Space as Participant in Humanizing the Other\n  \nAttend in person or online as follows:\nIn person at the Institute\, 20 West 74th Street\, between CPW & Columbus AvenuesOnline via Zoom at: https://wawhite.zoom.us/j/8180152948?pwd=cDkrUTlMSndQendyZzhnc054c0tpQT09\nPlease RSVP to attend: fvdillon@gmail.com\n  \nABOUT THIS PRESENTATION AND ITS SPEAKER\n\nInternationally renowned exhibition designer Tom Hennes will present an exploration of how space shapes human experience and human relating. Showing slides of his projects\, he will share his singular approach of design from a relational perspective — both as a process of shaping\, and as the tangible result long after the space  is shaped.  Our group can consider the influences of what is probable and possible in any space: in our homes\, our consulting rooms\, our museums\, etc.  The question we are left with: Is it possible for some people to transcend their environment? \nPlease join us to examine and share your experience of the space around you.\nTom Hennes is one of the most sought after exhibition designers in the world. He is founder of Thinc Design\, an internationally recognized\, award-winning exhibition design firm that has presented dynamic visitor experiences at museums and cultural attractions in numerous settings around the globe. Believing in the implicit power of the exhibition medium to engage society in important ways\,  he has pursued an ever-deepening involvement with exhibition projects embedded in social and environmental justice;  Freedom Park in South Africa\, a national memorial and museum in Pretoria.  Hennes is in the midst of a 3-year consultation on human experience design in the planning of four new jails in the New York boroughs. \nAt Thinc\, Tom Hennes has encouraged an evolving conception of relational design\, envisioning the exhibition as a narrative environment\, rich in implicit and explicit confluences\, contradictions\, and paradox.  He has written extensively on the multi-faceted role of museums and has taught at leading academic and design institutions including the Rhode Island School of Design\, the Pratt Institute in Boisbuchet\, France\, New York University’s Interactive Telecommunications Program\, the University of Pretoria\, among many others.  \nTo read more about Thinc Design visit: https://www.thincdesign.com/\nFrances V.

SUMMARY:Can the Body Psychotherapies Integrate with Psychoanalysis?
DESCRIPTION:THE 2024-2025 EMBODIMENT SERIES\nScott Baum\, PhD\, ABPP; Caron Harrang\, LICSW\, FIPA\, BCPsa; Lynne Jacobs\, PhD; David Levit\, PhD\, ABPP\, SEP\nwith Moderators Doris Brothers\, PhD and Jon Sletvold\, PsyD\nCAN THE BODY PSYCHOTHERAPIES INTEGRATE WITH PSYCHOANALYSIS?\nSATURDAY\, SEPTEMBER 14th\n12 Noon – 2:00PM/Eastern Time\n\nThis series is presented in collaboration with The Wilhelm Reich Center for the Study of Embodiment.\n2 CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDITS ARE AVAILABLE.

In today’s changing world\, efforts have been made to combine the best of both these disciplines. The members of this conversation panel offer different and exciting approaches to this subject.\n\nABOUT THE WILHELM REICH CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF EMBODIMENT\nInspired by the pioneering work of Wilhelm Reich and encouraged by the recent surge of interest in embodiment among clinicians\, co-Directors Drs. Doris Brothers and Jon Sletvold have founded the Center. With it\, they are introducing an online forum for dialogues about the ways in which embodiment affects the theory and practice of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy.\nA wide range of approaches to embodiment have emerged in the last two decades that have led them to believe that a “turn toward embodiment” is underway. In the interest of furthering this turn they are offering a format that differs from the usual at psychoanalytic meetings. Rather than featuring a paper presenting a specific theorist or clinician followed by discussions\, they intend that each event will center around a specific topic. Speakers from around the world\, each of whom employs a different perspective on embodiment\, will be invited to participate in a roundtable conversation of the topic. Afterward\, online participants will be encouraged to join the conversation.\nLearn more about The Wilhelm Reich Center for the Study of Embodiment\n\nCOSTS\nProfessionals $50\nCandidates and Students $30\n  \nTHE SPEAKERS\nScott Baum\, PhD\, ABPP\, is a clinical psychologist and bioenergetic therapist practicing in New York City.

SUMMARY:Patricia Gherovici\, PhD\, The And/Or of Gender – a Psychoanalytic Perspective
DESCRIPTION:The Colloquium Series of 2024-2025\nPsychoanalytic Synthesis and Innovation in Times of Upheaval\npresented by the Psychoanalytic Society of the William Alanson White Institute\nOPENING EVENT\nPATRICIA GHEROVICI\, PhD\nThe And/Or of Gender – a Psychoanalytic Perspective\nModerated by TOM HENNES\nFRIDAY EVENING\, SEPTEMBER 20th\, 7:30-9:30pm\nPresented in person\, on location at the Institute\n20 West 74th Street (between Central Park West & Columbus Avenue)\nSeating for this and all Colloquium events are on a first come\, first serve basis.\nDoors will open for this event at 7:00PM.\n\nABOUT THIS PRESENTATION\nIn 1928\, Virginia Woolf wrote Orlando\, a novel in which the protagonist changes sex in the middle of the story. A century later\, writer and activist Paul B. Preciado sends a filmed letter to Virginia Woolf in Orlando\, My Political Biography (2023). Following the premise that the body is not a fixed entity but entails a process of embodiment\, a becoming-body\, this lecture takes as point of departure Preciado’s recent docu-fiction to explore how those analysands who exist beyond the so-called traditional gender norms as well as those who consider themselves non-binary or outside heterosexuality are helping us rethink gender. Thinking gender outside of the either/or of traditional binary opposition\, one subverts the fixity of identitarian claims while reorienting psychoanalytic practice.\n1.5 CE Credits are offered for this presentation. Attendees must sign the attendance sheet at the event in order to qualify for CE credit.\n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nPatricia Gherovici\, PhD\, is a psychoanalyst\, analytic supervisor\, and recipient of the 2020 Sigourney Award for her clinical and scholarly work with Latinx and gender variant communities.​ She is a trustee at Pulsion: The International Institute of Psychoanalysis and Psychoanalytic Psychosomatics.\nHer single-authored books include The Puerto Rican Syndrome (Gradiva Award and Boyer Prize)\, Please Select Your Gender: From the Invention of Hysteria to the Democratizing of Transgenderism\, and Transgender Psychoanalysis: A Lacanian Perspective on Sexual Difference.
