Please join Marginal Utility Gallery for a guided discussion of Jacques Lacan’s Logical Time and the Assertion of Anticipated Certainty: A New Sophism with artist Jim Grilli. Lacan’s essay, a testament to the French psychoanalyst’s investment in philosophical inquiry within and beyond the clinical environment, is a contribution to dialectical thought. The text contains insights into group psychology, logic, theories of time, and consciousness among other topics.
