A CENTENNIAL SALUTE TO FREUD & EINSTEIN'S 1905 |
|
This exhibition will celebrate the Centennial
of the introduction of Freud's Three Essays on Sexuality and Einstein's
annus mirabilis by displaying the work and personal ephemera of both
men. Original manuscripts, documents, first-edition publications, and
works of art interpreting the work and identities of both individuals
form the core of the exhibition and will be loaned from the collection
of Ursinus College alumnus George Bause '77. Exhibition curated by Evan
Bause, FAISES, and George Bause, M.D. (Ursinus '77). For both Freud and
Einstein, 1905 was a banner year. The world had largely ignored Sigmund
Freud's 1899 masterwork The Interpretation of Dreams, so the future
"Father of Psychoanalysis" was almost pleased six years later with the
notoriety greeting his Three Essays on Sexual Theory. Year 1905 was
also Albert Einstein's annus mirabilis ("miracle year"). In merely six
months, the physicist submitted five groundbreaking papers, which 1)
solved the mystery of Brownian motion, 2) expounded his theory of
special relativity ( leading to E = mc2 ), and 3) paved the way to
quantum physics with an explanation of the photoelectric effect. The
last effort earned Einstein the Nobel Prize- an honor which eluded
Freud lifelong. "The Bause Collection of Freudiana and Einsteiniana"
showcases rare publications and images of these two great men,
including photography by Max Halberstadt, Fabian Bachrach, Lotte
Jacobi, Lucien Aigner, and Philippe Halsman; 2-D art by Ferdinand
Schmutzer, Ben Shahn, Salvador Dali, Paul Meltsner, Andy Warhol, Ferdie
Pacheco, and Seymour Chwast; and 3-D art by Robert Toth,
Howard Finster, Joel Rudnick, Ramona Hotel, Lynne Yale, R.D. Adams, and
Philip Sustachek. "Images & Energies" celebrates the imagination
and energy that Freud and Einstein wielded in 1905 to reveal,
respectively, the drives behind our inner selves and the forces of the
universe.
