摘要

This article aims to read Gustav Klimt’s Baby (Cradle) alongside Jacques Lacan’s ‘The Function and Field of Speech and Language in Psychoanalysis’, and ‘The Mirror Stage as Formation of the I Function as Revealed in Psychoanalytic Experience’. At stake here, and indeed already within the title of the painting, is a question of naming and supplementation: where is the object of study? Where is the baby to be found? I argue that Lacan’s texts challenge the foundations of psychoanalytic pedagogy and engage in the politics of psychoanalysis and its queerness which refuses an idea of an ultimate explanation.
