"Mai 68 Etat des Lieux", a photo book by Claude Ditivon, one of France's leading photographers. Born in 1937 and died in 2008. The exhibition "May Revolution in Paris" was held at the 2018 Kyoto International Photo Festival, but the exhibition "May Revolution" held at the Guggenheim Museum in New York in 1988 is a hot topic. There is an anecdote that the photograph was introduced every day for a month in the same year in the famous French newspaper "Le Monde". This book is a collection of photographs recording the May Revolution, which is a masterpiece of Ditivon. In May 1968, a university student in Paris who was dissatisfied with the government's educational policy started a large-scale demonstration, and then the May Revolution developed into a student struggle and a civic movement. It is composed of the realistic appearance of the student activism that will fly to Japan after that, the appearance of citizens and students, and the appearance of the police force facing each other. Like Kazuo Kitai, Hitomi Watanabe, and Kikujiro Fukushima, who portrayed the Japanese student activism, humanism that transcends the character of the documentary of that era is created.
