Freud Museum London

Overview

This year marks 100 years since Sigmund Freud wrote his paper on The Uncanny. A theory that went on to inspire art, film, literature and further psychoanalytic enquiry. The Freud Museum’s exhibition celebrates Freud’s essay and explores its legacy. Elizabeth Dearnley, lili Spain, Martha Todd and Karolina Urbaniak & Martin Bladh have made new artworks exploring the uncanny which may make you feel a little unsettled… Alongside these new works will be several etchings by German Surrealist Hans Bellmer.
