American photographer Taryn Simon talks about her new exhibition at Tate Modern 'A Living Man Declared Dead and Other Chapters'.03.06.2011 American photographer Taryn Simon talks about her new exhibition at Tate Modern 'A Living Man Declared Dead and Other Chapters'.  Simon mixes photography and text in a series works that chart family bloodlines. At the heart of each group of photographic portraits, carefully arranged as 18 horizontal family trees, is a compelling story. One set documents the relatives of an Iraqi man who was a body double for Saddam Hussein’s son; another show members of a religious sect in Lebanon who believe in reincarnation; while the exhibition title comes from a work about a living Indian man who was declared dead in official records. From feuding families in Brazil to victims of genocide in Bosnia, Simon forms a collection that maps the relationships between chance, blood and other components of fate.
