VirtualMuseumLogo

We have built the Virtual Psychoanalytic Museum and organized exhibitions to show the dynamism of psychoanalysis in a new way. Three galleries will be presented: Time and Space, curated by Batya Monder with Nancy R. Goodman; The Body, curated by Paula L. Ellman, and The Film Gallery featuring, “Lars and the Real Girl” (a story of attachment) curated by Marilyn B. Meyers. Our webmaster is Devra Hall Levy. There are many talented and wise contributors to the exhibitions in each gallery, stay tuned.

Arnold Richards is the publisher and Nancy Goodman is the museum director.

Like any museum you enter each gallery, one at a time, immersing yourself in the theme being presented. We use multi-media exhibitions and will learn to use more as we develop the museum.

Dear Colleagues:

An early Labor Day weekend offers an opportunity to spend time reading the interesting posts on the international psychoanalytic website. It is a time of turmoil in the world and will hopefully offer some respite as well as some insight into the societal issues.

My choices this week are:

1) For those of us who did not know much about the Islamic State – The “Fertile Crescent had been a cradle to strange and fascinating sects” – the post about the “land of lost gods” in the Art Category is a must!

Understanding “evil”, definition of psychoanalysis, Nietzshe & more from Sasha Rolde on IP.net
By Categories: Announcements

Dear Colleagues,

It seems that the human race insists on having continued hostilities – whether it is attempting to sue a president locally, shooting down passenger airplane in the Ukraine or attacks verging on war in the middle east. Our international website for rue cannot keep up with it all, but it can have posts related to possible reasons for the global unrest, if not solutions. Even the weather is temperamental, but as I write, the northeast is enjoying a few beautiful days, just as the website has a few remarkably lovely post. Below I am listing some of my choices, followed by the full listing of this week’s posts.

1) Apropos the world chaos – please note the first Announcement Battling the Life and Death Forces of Sadomasochism at CFS.
