Psychoanalysis has often been considered a Eurocentric practice, with its origins in Freud’s former home of Vienna, Austria and its earliest schools formed in European centres such as Berlin, Budapest, London and Paris.
But in the 21st-century, Latin America is home to some of the most important psychoanalytic centres in the world. Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, has the highest number of psychoanalysts per capita in the world.
Why has this region embraced psychoanalysis so warmly? And how has Freudian theory influenced wider culture and society?
“For the famous Maestro Prof. Dr. Sigmund Freud, in testimony of profound admiration and respect.“
- A BOOK DEDICATION FROM HONORIO DELGADO TO SIGMUND FREUD.
Through personal letters, photographs, sculptures, books and marginalia, Freud and Latin America will investigate the roots of psychoanalysis in the region, namely Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Peru. It will uncover fascinating links between Freud’s life and Latin America.
It
will also profile some integral early figures for the dissemination of
psychoanalysis, who are otherwise unknown in Europe, such as Peruvian
philosopher, Honorio Delgado and Brazilian psychiatrist, Gastão Pereira da
Silva. The exhibition will include artworks by Brazilian poet and woodcut
artist Jose Borges, Mexican multimedia artist Santiago Borja, and surrealist
photographer Grete Stern.
This exhibition will be in English, Spanish and Brazilian
Portuguese.
There will be a programme of relevant public events, a
thoughtful outreach programme working with local community groups, and a
catalogue to support the exhibition. Research by Mariano Ben Plotkin and
Mariano Ruperthuz Honorato for the co-authored book, Estimado Dr Freud: una
cultura historia del psicoanálisis en América Latina (Edhasa, 2017) will
provide the narrative that will guide this exhibition.
This exhibition is curated by Jamie Ruers.
This exhibition has been supported by Arts Council England
and Museum Development Fund.

Synopsis
'The most explosive, mind-blowing business book I've ever read' – Bradley Hope, New York Times bestselling author of Billion Dollar Whale
'Jaw-dropping . . . well-told, well-structured and exquisitely reported' – Financial Times book review
Discover the unauthorized, unvarnished story of famed Wall Street hedge-fund manager Ray Dalio.
When Ray Dalio, billionaire founder of Bridgewater Associates, the world's largest hedge fund, announced in October 2022 that he was stepping down from the company he founded forty-seven years ago, the news made headlines around the world. Dalio achieved worldwide fame thanks to a mystique of success cultivated in frequent media appearances, celebrity hobnobbing, and his bestselling book, Principles. In The Fund, Rob Copeland draws on hundreds of interviews with those inside and around the firm to reveal what really goes on with Dalio and his cohorts behind closed doors.
Tracing more than fifty years of Dalio's leadership, The Fund peels back the curtain to reveal a rarefied world of wealth and power, where former FBI director Jim Comey kisses Dalio's ring, recent Pennsylvania Senate candidate David McCormick sells out, and countless Bridgewater acolytes describe what it's like to work at this fascinating firm.
Dalio has stepped down from Bridgewater before; will the legacy of his Principles continue to chart the course of the firm? The Fund provides unique insight into the story of Dalio and Bridgewater, past, present and future.
