the consulting room

Freud’s consulting room.

The notion was a recreation of Freud’s consulting room from Vienna.

This began with my own attempt to resurrect Freud. I never got past making the hat myself, but with others involved: you never know.

There are some obvious objects and images to work with:

The couch
The framed image of Charcot
The man himself
His hat (I already have the that)
The patients
Their symptoms
The Wolfman’s dream and his drawings and paintings of same
The fire in Dora’s dream
Many a hysteric’s lost voice or paralyzed arm

Freud’s collection of antiquities
Freud’s writings
The standard edition
The chows
The maid who showed patients in
Martha who sometimes showed patients in
Anna who he analyzed
Her writings
The poet HD who he analyzed
Her poems
The Wednesday night group where Freud and the boys met (Jung, Ferenczi etc)
Freud’s library
Robert Longo’s drawings of 19 bergasse
Photographs of Freud
