Abstract

The core of the Monster's emergence, according to Foucault, is a mixture or hybrid that emerges at the junction of nature and law and challenges order. The main purpose of this paper is to study the concept of the Monster from Foucault's perspective and to analyze the place of this concept in Foucault's thought, in order to be able to use the concept of the Monster in connection with visual representation in art. The main research questions are: (1) How did Foucault conceptualize the Monster in the various coordinates and dimensions of his thought? (2) Given the importance of the issue of representation in the "Las Meninas" painting by Velá, zquez and Foucault's special attention to this artwork from the perspective of that issue, what is the relationship between Foucault's Monster and visual representation in this work? The content analysis approach and analytical-descriptive method were used in this research. The findings show that for Foucault the Monster is an autonomous, violent, but ultimately natural form of the abnormal and how Foucault encounters the concept of the Monster primarily is associated with decentralization of the normal. In Las Meninas painting, Monsters are the ones who distort the order of representation or are completely out of representation.
