Birgit Jürgenssen is the first comprehensive English-language monograph on the work of Austrian artist Birgit Jürgenssen

(1949–2003), a key figure in feminist avant-garde art. The volume offers an extensive survey of her artistic output—including drawings, photography, and conceptual pieces—situating her practice at the intersection of Surrealism, feminist critique, and structuralist discourse. With contributions by leading scholars such as Abigail Solomon-Godeau and Elisabeth Bronfen, it addresses issues of gender, identity, and representation through richly illustrated essays and archival material.
