Inés Medinaren sorkuntza garaikidea historiaratzeko estrategiak

Abstract

The place of Inés Medina's work in Basque historiography has been associated with abstraction, based on the artist's formal plastic study. However, in recent years she has made public a different painting, based on psychoanalysis and reflecting on gender-based violence. An example of this line is the pioneering 19th series. To investigate these works, I suggest building a new framework, as the one developed around abstraction does not seem applicable. In order to do this, I use two subjects that are important to feminism, and present in Medina's work: the relationship between body and mind, and femininity. I also contextualize her work with other contemporary artists who have dealt with violence against women.
