Resumo
Since the 1960’s the contemporary urban art has been an instrument of protest. Movements of
workers, students, artists and black people of both genders used and keep using the streets to
question the established order, politics and the society in general. “Feminist graphites: space of
struggle and resistance in urban art (2000-2018)” aproaches the urban art scenario as a women
protest space, especially in Brazil, and do it by analyzing the works made by women and men who
raise topics and problems taken as relevant for women’s issues. Among those topics there are
violence against women, maternity, blackness, empowerment, sorority, feminine power, racism
etc. The analyzed graphites also approach legislative landmarks which contemplate women’s cause
such as the laws 11.340/2006 and 13.104/2015 known as Law Maria da Penha and Law of
Feminicide, respectively. The study also includes graphites which commemorate characters who
made history and became references to women’s struggle such as Simone de Beauvoir, Nina
Simone, Malala Yousafzai, Marielle Franco, Maria Bonita, Anne Frank and Frida Kahlo as well as
super heroines from fiction such as Bat Girl and Wonder Woman. The artists’ performance is
important for reflections which allow new visibilities about gender issues and contribute
significantly to the formation of a women’s narrative, in other words, the graphites give voice to
the feminist movement and to the women’s history itself which is often forgotten by the dominant
and sexist historiography. The feminist graphite is a work of protagonism, struggle and women’s
resistance in History and also a legitimate way of giving visibility to the plurality of the movement.
