SUMMARY:Conference: The Art of Madness
DESCRIPTION:The Art of Madness A Study Weekend in New York\n Friday to Sunday\, April 27-29\, 2012\n Fordham University \nLacan famously said that “le fou est l’homme libre” (“the madman is the free man”) and that there is a “pathologie de la liberté” (“a pathology of freedom”). How should we understand these words in the current cultural climate of constant surveillance? Does creativity exist as a realm of freedom outside of such social constraints? If so\, how is it related to madness. What is la folie? Does what we call la folie differ from madness? In English mad means angry as well as crazy. Does the English mad resonate differently from its French counterpart? How is madness or folie to be distinguished from psychosis? Does “madness” involve the drive? How are we to think of folie in and out of the clinic? The study weekend will feature papers and discussions on madness and creativity from a Lacanian clinical perspective. Discussion topics will include the relation of madness to art; the aesthetics of the symptom; interpretation and expression; the art of psychotherapy; the clinician’s work as art; and the art of madness.
