Japanese female photographer Michiko Matsumoto's photo book “Portrait New York Women”. Since the 1980s, Michiko Matsumoto has released works focusing on portraits of artists and dancers representing the contemporary world, including New York and Paris. It is often aimed at women and holds solo exhibitions that photograph Yoko Ono and Niki de Saint-Fahl. This book is a collection of 65 women who I met in New York. Filmed in New York from 1980 to 1982 with artists, singers, actresses, etc. (writer share height, Toni Morrison, Betty Freedan, Kate Millett, performing artist Laurie Anderson, modeling artist Judy Chicago). Matsumoto visits the workplace and atelier and shoots, but I feel that the strength of the woman is hidden in the cool line of sight that looks straight into the lens. Each photo is posted and is accompanied by text by a photographer. The photo composition is handled by Kazuo Nishii, Japan's leading photo critic and editor. Signed by the photographer .
