Subject: [ARLIS-L] FW: query:
artists/sexual abuse survivors
I'm having trouble coming up with names of
artists, past or present, that were victims of rape/sexual abuse. The
person inquiring knows about Artemesia Gentileschi, and I added contemporary
pop singer Fiona Apple to the list, but aside from that, I'm stumped.
Anyone out there in the collective wisdom
that can think of other artists in this category? I've copied the
original message below.
Thanks in advance,

I’m a bit stuck on this reference question so I think
it’s time to ask an expert. I have a student looking for a list, of
sorts, of artists who are survivors of rape/sexual abuse.
She wants to tie together the relationship between having
had that experience, and a person finding a creative outlet in art –
well-know artists contemporary or historical.
She’s interested in authors too – and
we’ve identified folks like John Irving, Virginia Woolf, and Alice Walker
– but I’m having real trouble finding an article in either an art
or literary journal (or any reputable periodical) that deals with this topic.
I suppose I could easily find resources about images of rape
in art – but that’s not at all what we want – so I’m a
bit confounded as to how to search from here.
