Francesca Gargallo

About this book

Women's productions have been relegated to the levels of handicrafts, of ethnic popular arts, which have hardly been considered relevant as conformers of our symbolic universe. Francesca Gargallo highlights, with an exemplary journey within the visual arts, performance, theater, photography, cinema and letters, the creations made by women as a way of resisting and facing gender violence; as a liberation process that strives to affirm its existence, even and despite the vexations and the massacre that has plagued them throughout history.
