This book is a collection of the tabloid art magazine "Art View: First Issue, Second Issue, and Combined Issue 3&4" published in the early 1980s. Published in the 1980s, when the value of contemporary art was beginning to be cultivated, this magazine introduces solo exhibitions held in Japan, dialogues between artists, and even works. It states that "photography" should also be recognized as "art." The first issue featured Seiji Otsuji, the second issue featured a young Naoya Hatakeyama, and the combined issue 3&4 featured works by Masahisa Fukase. Fukase introduced three images taken in India, where he had visited for a month, which is rare. "Photography is my business, but it's just a way to kill time until I die, and I have no justification or prospects for the future. I feel ashamed of it" (from Fukase's own text).
