- **Event Description**: Dr Daniela Finzi in conversation with Prof Gemma Blackshaw.About this EventThe story of the Freud family's emigration from Vienna to London in 1938 is paralleled by another story; the journey of Freud's collection from Berggasse 19 to 20 Maresfield Gardens. Key to these journeys was Anton Sauerwald, the Nazi Commissar tasked with issuing the documents of 'non-impediment' that facilitated their departure.Recently, The Sigmund Freud Museum Vienna acquired an archive from Anton Sauerwald's great-niece, which throws considerable light on this obscure period in psychoanalytic history. In this special event, Dr Daniela Finzi, Research Director at the Sigmund Freud Museum Vienna will be in conversation with Prof Gemma Blackshaw (RCA), curator of our current exhibition Housekeeper, to discuss the new Sauerwald archive in the context of the exhibition._______________________________________________________________________Speakers:Daniela Finzi is a literary and cultural scholar and a curator.
