N2  - This article presents an overview of women's art that has dealt with the subject of violence against women. This art is divided into three categories: external violence (e.g., murder, rape, objectification, and religion), home (e.g., domestic violence, battered women, incest, and marriage as a violent institution), and violence against the self (e.g., masochism, eating disorders, and femininity as violence). Each category is discussed from a psychological and artistic perspective. Multiple examples illustrate the ways women artists have employed their art to express their feelings, to educate the public, and to heal and empower themselves in an attempt to cope with and overcome traumatic experiences related to violence committed against them.<p />
