Alternative Visions: A Female Perspective / The Wall vs the Page

French curator Mark Füstel focuses on two perspectives that were overlooked in "New Japanese Photography" (MoMA) in New York in 1974

1st is the female perspective. 15 photographers were selected for the exhibition, but not one female photographer was included. This exhibition presents important works created by female artists who were active during that period, and presents a different form of exhibition that could have been at that time.

The 2nd is the existence of a "photo book". Shoji Yamagishi said that "Japanese photography was mainly made for books," but in the 1974 exhibition there was only 1 photobook, and the rest was composed of prints. This exhibition demonstrates the importance and diversity of photobooks in modern times, and shows how the experience of viewing photographs differs from "pages and walls."
