About this book
Psychoanalysis, the study of the unconscious, has provided artists in the 20th and 21st centuries with both a visual language and valuable psychological tools to address the social phenomenon of violence against women. The volume presents groundbreaking research on various representations of gender-based violence in art. The book aims to examine the cultural constructions embedded in this phenomenon and to explore the different strategies that have been developed on different continents to counteract it. The artists featured are Oskar Kokoschka, María Izquierdo, Grete Stern, Dorothea Tanning, Ana Mendieta, Kiki Kogelnik, Marina Abramović, Soli Kiani, Sigalit Landau, and Hava Raucher, as well as the filmmaker Ruth Beckermann and the philosopher Hélène Cixous.
