Private Tour of the exhibition Women & Freud: Patients, Pioneers, Artists, with an introduction about Alice Anderson’s special commission, in her presence.
For Women & Freud, Anderson created large-scale painting installation that incorporate the data windows from Freud’s house. This performative practice of creating data and dancing with them is a poetic response to the world of big data, which feeds algorithms and AI, transforming our bodies, societies, and the Earth.
The event will be introduced by Dr Giuseppe Albano, Director of the Freud Museum
