A dazzling new exhibition that highlights the women who helped Freud invent psychoanalysis and their legacy in its practice - as well as in the arts and literature through to our own time.

About

From the early “hysterics”, who Freud called ‘his teachers’, to later patients, many of whom like Princesse Marie Bonaparte became analysts, to his daughter Anna Freud and her partner Dorothy Burlingham, to artists such as Marie-Louise von Motesiczky, Louise Bourgeois, Paula Rego, Alice Anderson and Tracey Emin, the exhibition draws on manuscripts, images, objects, visuals, and film footage to bring to life the many women who featured in Freud’s history, as well as those affected by his considerable body of thinking, rethinking and practice .
