Tell All the Truth But Tell It Slant: Reflections from a Professional Graphoanalyst

Tell All the Truth But Tell It Slant: Reflections from a Professional Graphoanalyst
With Ed Rath
Wednesday, March 25 • 6–7 pm
This event is FREE.
Brooklyn-based artist Ed Rath has been working as a professional graphoanalyst—a person who analyzes handwriting using a system called Graphoanalysis—for 38 years. For Ann Resnick’s project Tell Me What You Think of Me, Ed analyzed numerous writing samples, looking at stroke formation and patterns of various features (loops, slants, pressure, size, and spacing) in the handwriting of project participants to assess complex features such as emotional responsiveness and depth, imagination, fears, defenses, social traits, and integrity. In his presentation, Ed will talk about the history and present-day uses of Graphoanalysis as a discipline using his findings for this project as illustrations.

This programming is in collaboration with Tell Me What You Think of Me by Ann Resnick.
