Fighting or rather protesting Art by employing Art as the weapon drives the Guerilla Girls movement forward. The paper looks at selected stickers and posters produced by the Guerilla Girls protesting the discrimination towards women in the realm of arts. The paper aims at looking at the images and analyses the fact in it, bringing out the truth in the history of art and its false representations.
