The(ir) Blurb...

In 1935, Hungarian psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Léopold Szondi created a personality test for "experimental diagnosis of human impulses" consisting of 48 photos. Choosing the two most attractive and the two least attractive images, determined if you were: a homosexual, a sadist, an epileptic, a hysteric, a catatonic, a paranoid, a depressive or a maniac. Cut according to a strictly serial sequence technique, in various frame sizes, the 48 portraits from the test are shown here in pre-specified lengths (between one and eight frames).
