%X We can call feminism briefly, the quest for social justice. Feminism, which gained momentum with the First World War, has brought about profound changes in many areas, ranging from the acquisition of equal rights by women to the development of human rights. A group of women who wanted to have equal rights not only in the social context, but also in the arts contributed to various artistic innovations under the heading of "feminist art". Nil Yalter is one of the artists who produce works of contemporary art in this feminism process, which continues until today. Nil Yalter, one of the leading representatives of the French feminist art movement in the 1970s, has organized exhibitions at many national and international art institutions and also presented works for major art events such as biennial. The artist, who is interested in feminist approaches, created awareness by presenting the subjects that explain the difficulties of life in an artistic expression and showed different perspectives. Drawing attention to the position of woman in art since the 1970s, she has been involved in painting, performance, installation, video and photography works, avoiding stereotypical production and touched on women's collective work and women's problems. In this study, Nil Yalter's sensitivity towards this subject as an artist, the problems experienced in the period, it is desired to see and transfer from the perspective. In this context, taking into account the developmental process of feminism, not only in the social and ideological context, but also in the form of an artistic expression, examples of Nil Yalter's works that draw attention to the emphasis on feminism, and the examples of other artists who produced works in this field were mentioned and comparisons are made
