Résumé:
Five Portraits of the Insane by the nineteenth century French artist Théodore Géricault are said to be all that remain of originally ten commissioned portraits of insane patients. Each painting depicts a particular mental condition, a so-called monomania including a kleptomaniac, a woman mad with envy, a child kidnapper. Almost nothing is known about these portraits, but they raise a multitude of questions. Who are these people? In what way are they insane? What and where are the five missing madnesses? Intrigued and inspired by an absence, Tan decides to go in search of them. Pairing personal impressions with formal analysis and archival research, the essay ventures far beyond the boundaries of art history. Written by Fiona Tan during a fellowship as artist-in-residence at the Getty Research Institute, Los Angeles.

Résumé:
Published in conjunction with Fiona Tan’s eponymous exhibition at Sprengel Museum Hannover, which celebrates her being awarded the SPECTRUM International Prize for Photography of the Stiftung Niedersachsen in 2019, this book reflects the artist’s differentiated use of photography on a comprehensive scale, taking account of the phenomenon of time and at the interface with the medium of film. ‘Goraiko’ translates as “the coming of the light”, and refers to the sunrise as seen from the top of Mt. Fuji, the highest point in Japan.
