From her shoe sculptures to ironic drawings, Jurgenssen's feminist-subersive oeuvre resists any singular style, instead favoring a practice of constant experimentation
Informed by Surrealism, Structuralism, Freudian psychoanalysis and even traditional Japanese handcrafts, Austrian artist Birgit Jurgenssen (1949-2003) was an unconventional, uncategorizable force of nature. This comprehensive monograph offers a fresh and extensive insight into her nearly 40-year career.
