description My aim in this paper is to build on a fundamental essay by Linda Nochlin preci- sely titled “Women, Art and Power” (1988), where the author convincingly inves- tigates this triad while, in her own words, she “disentangles various discourses about power related to gender difference existing simultaneously with – as much surface as substractum – the master discourse of the iconography or narrative”.

This situation, which has indeed gained wider significance since the late 80s, I suggest (through the viewing of some examples), can be read within the context of the production of women’s narratives of empo- werment or, alternatively, as creating challenging narratives of counter-power.
