This book is a collection of catalog works published at the exhibition "For a New World to Come", which was held at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston in 2015 and then traveled to New York. The Japanese translation of the title of Takuma Nakahira's "For a Language to Come" is "For the coming new world." And the subtitle is "Experiments in Japanese Art and Photography 1968-1979". Many of the "picture depictions" of photographs in the latter half of the 1960s, represented by Shomei Tomatsu and Provoke (Daido Moriyama, Takuma Nakahira, Yutaka Takanashi, etc.), have been introduced, but at the same time, "Video depictions" of the same period were introduced in this exhibition. By introducing "Avant-garde art", especially the works of artists using photographs, we cannot overlook the fact that we are totally introducing the background and world view of this era. The illusory "Five-Person Photobook" is also included, and in his own book "Japan is a country of photobooks" by historian of photography Ryuichi Kaneko, "One with a higher level of material than the exhibition. This book is described as "book". The text is in English.
