The Case Histories : Martin Wilner

23 Nov 2016-19 Feb 2017

Overview

Martin Wilner is an artist, psychiatrist and scholar in psychoanalysis based in New York. The Freud Museum presents Wilner’s first solo museum exhibition, drawing on his decades of artistic work pertinent to the practice and thinking around psychoanalysis. The Case Histories are the latest iteration of Wilner’s ongoing Making History project begun in 2002. Wilner, in the first decade of this process, rendered daily drawings based upon events in the world of interest to him. Over the course of each month elements of representation, portraiture, caricature, cartography, typography, micrography, and musical composition coalesce into the resulting work.
