Lecture, 23 Apr 2018, 19:30
This talk will explore the history of institutional psychotherapy, a psychiatric reform movement born in France after the Second World War. Anchored in Marxism and in Lacanian psychoanalysis, institutional psychotherapy advocated a radical restructuring of the asylum in order to transform the theory and practice of psychiatric care, truly ‘disoccupy’ the minds of patients, and ultimately revolutionize society.
Part of the workshop Radical Psychiatry, Psychoanalysis, and 1968
Organized by Sarah Marks (Birkbeck, University of London) and Hannah Proctor (ICI Berlin) in collaboration with Birkbeck’s Hidden Persuaders project, funded by the Wellcome Trust

Symposium, 27 Apr 2018, 10:00 - 21:00
Much has been made of the influence of media and fashion on the proliferation of eating disorders (ED): The glamorization of skinny and ephebic bodies is blamed for the quasi-epidemic spread of anorexia among young women, and hence the core of ED is often understood to be profoundly mimetic. Yet this link between ED and issues of representation extends even to its most clinical definitions and their inherent difficulties. While ED do affect bodies and gestures, their symptomatology remains elusive. ED thus often appear as disorders constructed around socially conditioned invisibilities.
Keynote by Susie Orbach
Organized by Clio Nicastro and Nadine Hartmann
Please note: there is no need to register for the evening lecture. However, the symposium – due to a limited number of seats – requires prior registration.

Discussion, 3 May 2018, 18:00
Politische Reden, Theaterperformances, Fernsehshows, Facebookposts, Konzerte, Sportevents – derart heterogene und in vielerlei Hinsicht nicht vergleichbare soziale und kulturelle Phänomene haben eines gemeinsam: Sie wenden sich an ein Publikum, benötigen und konstituieren dieses. Die Tagung widmet sich gegenwärtigen Erscheinungsformen von Publika und untersucht, welche Rolle diese in heutigen mobilen, medialisierten und vernetzten Gesellschaften spielen.

26th Karl Abraham Lecture
In his lecture, Riccardo Steiner will sketch how some of the pioneers of British psychoanalysis tried to apply psychoanalysis to understand sociopolitical and historical issues during the first decades of the last century. Apart from Freud’s and Ferenczi’s work, he will focus on some papers of Ernest Jones, Edward Glover’s famous book War, Sadism and Pacifism (1932, 1947) and Roger Money-Kyrle’s Psychoanalysis and Politics (1951).

Exhibition, 16 May - 12 Jun 2018
Christoph Breuer transposes chiaroscuro into the realm of colour, focussing on bright subjects in a muted field. Everyday objects such as pills, knives and gloves become unsettling in settings that are far from everyday. Human figures unfold a strange presence, even though their heads are covered with a scarf or motorcycle helmet.
Opening 16 May 2018 18:00 ICI Library
