"Women Come Alive (Signed, With OBI)" is a collection of works by Matsumoto Michiko, one of Japan's leading female photographers after the war. In an era when male superiority was prioritized and the main players in society were men, and the idea that "men take pictures and women are photographed" was common, a young female photographer named Matsumoto Michiko focused on "women" and aimed her lens at the women's liberation movement of the 1970s and at the forefront of female artists she admired. Matsumoto's subjects have always been "women," and she has continued to capture women from a female perspective and convey the wonderfulness of women to the public. This book contains numerous records of the women's liberation movement in Japan and abroad in the 1970s, as well as portraits of people such as Ishioka Eiko, Kato Tokiko, and even Ono Yoko. "Women who have a will to live for themselves are beautiful," "Strong, free-spirited women are beautiful," this is a document of women photographed over a period of eight years while repeatedly asking herself such questions, and it is also a record of the photographer Michiko Matsumoto's growth in her twenties.
