Since its creation by Freud, psychoanalysis has been the impetus for the images of many visual artists. Many, if not all, of the major movements of the 20th century reflect aspects of psychoanalytic thought beginning with Cubism and Surrealism and continuing into Contemporary Art.

This presentation will explore how visual art has reflected psychoanalytic thought from the very beginning of Freud’s formulations through the 20th century and into the 21st. Images from major movements including Cubism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, Minimalism, Neo Expressionism and Contemporary Art will be shown and will reflect how artists have utilized many different psychoanalytic theories and concepts in their work whether consciously or unconsciously.

Douglas F. Maxwell is a retired assistant professor of Arts at NYU where he taught Contemporary Art for four decades. In addition, he is a licensed psychoanalyst in New York in private practice. He is current parliamentarian and former president of IFPE. He is a twice former president of the National Association for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis (NAAP). He is a senior member, training analyst, faculty, supervisor, chair of the Standards and Ethics Committee and Arts editor of the Psychoanalytic Review, NPAP. He is faculty at the Blanton Peale Institute, The Harlem Family Institute and the Institute for Expressive Analysis. He is the former Editor of Review Magazine and is the author of more than 100 articles and catalogues on contemporary art.

PRESENTS:
LEADING FOR EQUITY

TOO OFTEN LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES ARE NOT FULLY ACCESSIBLE TO THE POPULATIONS MOST DIRECTLY AFFECTED BY SYSTEMIC RACISM EVEN WHEN THIS MIGHT BE THEIR AIM. OTHERS MAY RELY ON OUTMODED FRAMEWORKS WHERE EQUITY AND SYSTEMIC CHANGE ARE, AT BEST, PASSING CONCERNS. HOWEVER, A GROWING NUMBER OF PRACTITIONERS ARE PURSUING APPROACHES TO LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT THAT TRANSCEND ORGANIZATIONAL BOUNDARIES, SEEK COLLECTIVE RATHER THAN INDIVIDUAL OR ORGANIZATIONAL IMPACT, AND CONTRIBUTE TO CROSS-SECTOR MOVEMENTS FOR JUSTICE. THESE EFFORTS INTEGRATE EQUITY-FOCUSED CHANGE MANAGEMENT, ACCESSIBLE DATA TOOLS (INCLUDING THOSE ENABLED BY SOCIAL MEDIA), COMMUNITY-ENGAGED METHODS, AND HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVES. AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME, AS PRIVATE SECTOR, SOCIAL SECTOR, AND GOVERNMENT ENTITIES MAKE NEW RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO ADVANCE EQUITY, LEADERSHIP IS CRITICAL FOR ENSURING THAT THESE COMMITMENTS ACTUALLY DELIVER EQUITABLE OUTCOMES.
