Abstract
In this interview with Alessandro Bruni, we intend to retrace a part of the history of the Pollaiolo di Roma (CRG), discussing Bruni's encounter with W. R. Bion and collaboration with Francesco Corrao and Claudio Neri. The interview will delve into the generative role of Francesco Corrao, who had the merit of promoting research activity into Bion's thought in Italy, giving rise, through modeling groups, to a fruitful study and multiple theorizing on the small group with an analytic function. Alessandro Bruni is a biologist, psychotherapist, and psychoanalyst, a founding member and training and supervising analyst at the Istituto Italiano di Psicoanalisi di Gruppo, and a full member and training and supervising analyst at the Società Psicoanalitica Italiana, a component society of the International Psychoanalytical Association. He is a Community Member of the Northwestern Psychoanalytic Society and Institute in Seattle, WA, USA, and a founding member of Synaptica, an Italian mind–body research group.
