Item Number: 133047 Title: For a New World to Come : Experiments in Japanese Art and Photography, 1968–1979 Author: Nakamori, Yasufumi (ed) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9780300207828 Description: New Haven: Yale University Press, for the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, 2015. 30cm., hardcover, 256pp., 140 color, 134 b&w illus. Exhibition catalogue. Summary: In Japan, the student protests and avant-garde art initiatives of the late 1960s gave way to political apathy, economic uncertainties, and an introspective tendency in art. As a result, many artists sought different avenues of expression in the following decade, using photography in experimental and conceptual ways as part of their larger artistic practice. Many photographers also responded by moving away from a straight documentary approach, some displaying their images in series and installations as works of art.
