Abstract

SORIA, Claudia. Grete Stern: imágenes del goce femenino. Mora (B. Aires) [online]. 2010, vol.16, n.1. ISSN 1853-001X.

Informed by the theory of jouissance that Freud, Lacan and Cixous elaborate, this paper explores the photographic series entitled "Dreams" that Grete Stern publishes in Buenos Aires in Idilio (1948-51).  In a magazine aimed for a feminine audience of middle and low class, the series of this German graphic designer and photographer who arrives in Buenos Aires in 1935, illustrates the section called "Psychoanalysis will help you." The section publishes the dreams that readers submit to the magazine so that Richard Rest (nickname for Gino Germani and Enrique Butelman) would give his interpretation. Its is precisely following the path of the dreams as represented by Grete Stern that one can observe a solidarity between women's agency and the beginning of psychoanalytic practice in the culture of Buenos Aires.

Keywords : Dreams; Psychoanalysis; Jouissance; Grete Stern.
