The Asheville Jung Center is very pleased to continue with our Winter
webinar series on The Life and Works of Erich Neumann and His
Relationship with C.G. Jung hosted by Murray Stein.
Nancy Swift Furlotti will present in the next webinar on February 23rd and the topic is Neumann and Jung as "painters." Dr. Furlotti will show and compare paintings by Neumann that have recently been discovered with some of Jung's paintings in The Red Book.
For both men, painting represented an engagement with the unconscious
and a central feature of their individuation processes. There will also
be references to Neumann's writings on art and artists with the
assistance of Murray Stein.
The
full course of this series consist of 5 webinars discussing the great works of
Erich Neumann as well as the relationship he shared with Jung.

of $127. Participants joining anytime after the course begins can still
register and catch up by watching the recorded version of prior
lectures. Visit the registration page to view the free first webinar or to register for the full series.
Erich Neumann has been widely considered to be Jung's most brilliant student
and heir to the mantle of leadership among analytical psychologists
until his untimely death in 1960 at the age of fifty-five. Many of his
works are considered classics in the field to the present day - The Origins and History of Consciousness and The Great Mother, to name just the best known among many others. Now with the publication of the correspondence between Neumann and Jung (Analytical Psychology in Exile,
Princeton University Press, 2015) and of the substantial papers
presented at the conference held at Kibbutz Shefayim in Israel honoring
the publication of the correspondence (Troubled Times, Creative Minds,
Chiron 2016), a great deal of new interest is developing in the life
and works of Neumann. The five-part webinar Series will be devoted to
exploring the important relationship between Neumann and Jung and
discussing Neumann's works in many areas, clinical and cultural, from
the perspective of analytical psychology. The aim of this Series is to
contribute to the momentum of growing interest in the full range of
Neumann's writings.

Are creative impulses rooted deep in the psyche? The Unconscious Roots of Creativity investigates into the domain of memory that is beyond conscious reach.
From whence spring the sparks of creativity? It is to this very question that the field of depth psychology—especially that of C.G. Jung and his intellectual descendants—has much to contribute.
Just as the Muses were the offspring of Mnemosyne, the goddess of memory, our memories are the ancestors of our creativity that finds its multifaceted expression in the written word, image, theater, dance, and music. The Unconscious Roots of Creativity seeks to push the investigation into that domain of memory that is beyond our conscious reach.
Edited by Kathryn Madden and with articles from 16 contributors, the “red thread” running through each of the offerings in this volume is that, whatever its ultimate expression, the creative impulse has its roots deep in the psyche.
With articles by Linda Carter, Anna Maria Costantino, Carol Thayer Cox, Leonard Cruz, Lisa Raye Garlock, James Hollis, Naomi Ruth Lowinsky, Ian Livingston, Kathryn Madden, Jordan S. Potash, Susan Rowland, Murray Stein, Ann Ulanov, Tjeu van den Berk, Robin van Löben Sels and Heidi S. Volf

Ensoulment is an encounter with young filmmaker Lorís Simón Salum as she struggles to explain the feminine, according to psychologist Carl Jung’s theories.
She interviews authors and leaders in the field of psychology, including Dr. James Hollis, Dr. Abigail Disney, Rev. Dr. Serene Jones, Dr. Cynthia Eller and Dr. Anne Fausto-Sterling, amongst others, to broaden her perspective about what the feminine is and how it takes place in Western culture. What starts out as an attempt to make a film, ends in a search of meaning, belonging and the path back to her true self.
Ensoulment is the compilation of the complete interviews performed in the award-winning documentary by the same name.
Writer, director and editor, Lorís Simón Salum graduated from Rice University with a BA in Psychology. Shortly after, she joined Literal Magazine where she wrote, directed and co-produced the documentary feature, Ensoulment: A Diverse Analysis of the Feminine in Western Culture. After numerous awards and worldwide screenings, Lorís opened Literal’s first international short film festival, Literally Short Film Festival. In 2016 she earned a Business Certification from Columbia University in New York City. Lorís continues to work as director and programmer at Literally Short.
