Abstract

Woman vindictive fight to take place in the artistic scene accents in the seventies, with big artists that defend their rights in The United States and Europe with new media like photography or performances. These new media opened the road to their later generations. The inheritance they have left allows woman to work without thinking about gender matters like they did in the past, but this fact doesn’t mean that all is solved and they can lower their guard. Natalia Lozano, emergent multidisciplinary artist, is a good example to know in what situation a young woman is nowadays, and also allow us to extract a postfeminist reading. Moreover, the professor Rosa Maria Rodríguez Magda answers some questions that help us to solve certain points that come when you know the current scene.
