Carla Lonzi

Carla Lonzi was an influential Italian art critic and feminist thinker, active mainly in the 1960s and 1970s. She challenged traditional perspectives by emphasizing the importance of women's voices and personal experience in art and society. Lonzi believed that women should take control of their narratives and reject objectification, promoting the idea of women as active participants rather than passive objects. Her work helped spark feminist debates about gender, identity, and artistic expression, encouraging women to assert their autonomy and reshape cultural values to be more inclusive and equitable.
