Throughout the history of the Victor Smirnoff Center, this text raises the question, specific to the clinical psychoanalytical institutions, of the construction of places and modalities of collective exchanges around the transferential and counter-transferential intimacy of psychoanalytic encounters and treatments. These modalities of inter-analytic exchanges, within the institution and with the rest of the analytical community, could reveal «the style» of each institution. It would be the occasion to display the history of the creation and evolution of each center, the theoretical convictions of their founders and/or directors, and their transference on psychoanalysis as well as the transferential remains of their own psychoanalytic pathways.
