This paper follows the classification of violence made by Žižek: subjective, objective, symbolic and systemic, to show how violence is used when it is itself denounced through art. It explores the artworks of four female artists, one per each type of violence: Teresa Margolles exhibits subjective violence, Cindy Sherman photographs the objective violence, Hannah Wilke denounces, while she portrays it, symbolic violence and Marina Abramovi´c revealed the hidden systemic violence. Finally, there is an exploration of the role of the spectator regarding artworks where his/her participation is required.

Palabras llave : art; body; feminism; performance; violence.
