Gentileschi: The Female Rage Of A Baroque Master

Artemisia Gentileschi's paintings personify female rage against men. She paints women beheading men, hammering nails into their skulls, brandishing their dead faces. In her personal life, Artemisia was the victim of sexual abuse, torture and public shaming. Can we read her traumatic personal life into her work? Produced by Tomos Delargy and McKenna Fernandez.
