The lecture was part of a panel at the CAA College Art Association Conference 2024. The panel was convened by Basia Sliwinska. 

What does contemporary transnational feminist resistance look like? What kind of visual and performative strategies are used to raise awareness of the war against the women (Silvia Federici), of which the murder of women is one acute expression? How is the “writing on the body of murdered women” (Rita Segato) articulated in the public visuality of resistance? How do physical and digital public spaces converge in new forms of feminist media activism that creates public awareness and puts pressure on transnational organizations, policy makers, and state legislators. Originating from the organizing around feminicides in Mexico during the 1990s, a large-scale NiUnaMenos movement formed in Argentina in 2015. Taking inspiration from the hashtag #VivasNosQueremos and from the widely shared videos of the 2019 performance Un Violador En Tu Camino by Las Tesis, led to the organization of of anti-feminicide activism taking to the streets in different European cities. This contribution places public manifestations, including in Berlin (2020, Gemeinsam Kämpfen, Women Defend Rojava), Paris (2021), Vienna (Aufstand der Schwestern, 2021) or Leipzig (#KeineMehrLeipzig) in conversation with manifestations in Mexico, Argentina, and Chile to explore the formation of transnational visual anti-femicide-activism.
