Illuminating Darkness: Two lectures on how creativity can shine light into the dark of woundedness, bringing meaning, healing, and inspiration

Saturday May 11, 2019 1:30-4:00

Greenwich House * 27 Barrow Street, 4th Floor * New York, NY 10014 (Accessible Facility)

Duende, the Golden Dark. “All that has black sounds has duende.” Manuel Torre
Duende pulls light from darkness; to say a flamenco performer has great duende is the highest compliment. Lorca used it as the cornerstone of his poetics. This presentation posits that psychoanalysis is the science with duende, an art and a calling. From the psychodynamics of the color black through thanatos, interweaving Freud, Klein, Jungian alchemy, and astrology, we stop at The Matrix along the way. It concludes with a case study of an artist client’s recovery from suicidality; already creative, illuminated even more.

Claudia Bader, MPS, ATR-BC, NCPsyA, LP, LCAT ,PAA- NCGR Level IV Consulting Astrologer. MARI Mandala Assessment Teacher. Claudia is a graduate of IEA, and now a control analyst, supervisor, and faculty member; she also served as Executive Director and Director of Education. Pioneering the interface of spirituality, psychoanalysis, astrology, alchemy, art, and mandalas since 1973, she has taught internationally for psychoanalytic and astrological audiences. Her research interests are rooted in exploring the way the inner and outer worlds inform each other; in particular, color and space in the psyche and the relationship of astrology to art expression and psyche. Since 1995, Claudia has taught Art Diagnosis to over a thousand students at 4 universities. She is published in the Encyclopedia of Psychology and Religion and different astrology journals. Co-author of the best selling Love Planets, in private practice in NYC, she also takes people to their soul homes with past life and spiritual regression.

Illuminating Rape: The Representation of Sexual Violence in Women’s Art. An immense cultural shift and awakening is taking place that mirrors and expands the Women’s Movements of previous eras. This presentation will delve into the ways that women, from a handful in the past to increasing numbers in the present day, have depicted very dark, painful and often shamefully hidden experiences of sexual violence through their artwork. Breaking the silence through shining a creative light on these shattering experiences forges them into a visual, embodied voice in the culture. Many of these artists’ works also address or depict the means of regaining equilibrium and reclaiming one’s own body, psyche, autonomy, sexuality and strength.

Diane Fremont, LCSW-R is a Certified Jungian Analyst in private practice in New York City. She is former Director of Training, supervisor, training analyst and faculty member of the Jungian Psychoanalytic Association, as well as a member of the Inter-Regional Society of Jungian Analysts and a faculty member of the Institute for Expressive Analysis. She is a board member of the Archive for Research in Archetypal Symbolism and a contributor to The Book of Symbols (2010), as well as writing a number of papers on art, alchemy, trauma and the creative process.

Professor Robert Irwin Wolf, Dpsa, LCAT, LP, NCPsya, ATR-BC

This 2-hour Workshop/Seminar, will utilize volunteers from the audience to present clinical cases and simulate a group supervision experience. The facilitator will help the group utilize a variety of expressive modalities and methods of sensory motor expression to create a supervisory experience that explores non-verbal, implicit forms of communication in order to understand and process transference and countertransference material and enhance their work as clinicians. Participants will then be prepared to use this process with individuals in treatment.

Learning Objectives

Participants will be able to:

• Utilize sensory motor communication within a group setting
• Describe the relationship between ’Implicit’ memory and the unconscious
• Explain how we communicate implicit feelings through non-verbal forms of expression
