"Violence without bodies" includes also
Agricola de Cologne's interactive net play
Compressed Affair
http://www.nmartproject.net/agricola/mpc/collections/compressed_affair1htm

Of particular relevance is the online part curated by Remedios Zafra, not only due to the focus on "violence on women", but basically because it represents one of a few examples, that net based art is recognized as an equal form of contemporary art working among all the existing traditional forms, a status which has net based art, not yet generally. So, this show has an emancipatory character in different concern und deserves particular attention, including net based works by Francesca da Rimini, Natalie Bookchin, Margot Lovejoy, Tina La Porta, Young-Hae Chang Heavy Industries, Igor Stromejer etc, see also list further ahead.

violence in couple and family-
their limits and energy expressing the changing and heterogenous relations
between the cultural analysis, the political critics and the artistic
production, - is structured in 5 parts interrelating with each other. eg
a cycle of films and videos, an Internet based online part, conferences and
meetings and the edition and an action by Angélica Liddell.
