MASP Seminars | Histories of Madness and Delirium | 11.12.2025 (English)

The Histories of Madness and Delirium seminars explore the relation between art and psychiatry and how together they intersect with notions of race, gender, sexuality, and ability as well as histories of coloniality/decoloniality. Speakers reflect on cross-cultural differences in relation to experiences of visions and of what Western culture defines as delirium. They also address networks of care and healing spaces, which promote non-hierarchical forms of relations and interdependence. The program foregrounds past and present issues of representation and self-representation at the intersections of art and care; confinement and the creative imagination; artists and psychiatric reform; and turns to contemporary artists and cultural actors whose works enable participatory processes of belonging with difference, promoting an expanded understanding of the multiple ways of being in the world.
