“BION AND THE POPES OF HORROR<\/strong>“<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n by Prof. Dr. Lu\u00eds Delgado, <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Abstract<\/strong>:<\/span><\/p>\n In this communication of psychoanalysis (extra-therapeutic) applied to artistic productions the author focuses on the (in)ability to think of horror through two of the, roughly, forty interpretations made by the painter Francis Bacon \u2013 The Screaming Pope (1953) and Figure with Meat (1954) \u2013 of the portrait of Pope Innocent X (1650) by Diego Vel\u00e1zquez, which can be understood in the light of Wilfred Bion`s Theory of Transformations (1965), in which each interpretation\/transformation leads the painter to the intensification of an unnamed terror, viscerally felt, without any capacity for mentalization, for naming, for a dream and the diffusion of the feeling of identity. For this, he created a technique capable of reproducing the deep psychic reality instead of the appearance of people. His aim was not to paint the horror that gave rise to \u201cscream\u201d, but to paint the very \u201cscream\u201d of terror, so as to make the inaudible audible.<\/p>\n Keywords:<\/strong> Vel\u00e1zquez, Bacon, Bion, Horror, Transformations theory.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Short Biography:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Lu\u00eds Delgado studied clinical psychology at the Institute Henry Pi\u00e9ron \u2013 Universit\u00e9 Ren\u00e9 Descartes, Paris V and is a professor at Instituto Superior de Psicologia Aplicada \u2013 University Institute \u2013 Lisboa, where he teaches methodology and projective techniques in clinical and teaches master and doctoral seminars.
