A collection of works by Eiko Yamazawa (1899-1995), a female photographer who has been active since before the war, "What I am going (Unopened)". Coupled with the popularity of photographs and photobooks in recent years, the movement of re-evaluation of photographers who were active in the 20th century and reprints of work collections is conspicuous. Eiko Yamazawa's name was not well known to anyone other than those involved in photography, but it became famous at the exhibitions held at the Nishinomiya City Otani Memorial Museum of Art and the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography in 2019. This book is a collection of catalog works published at the time of the exhibition. Yamazawa was a pioneer of female photographers who studied photography in the United States before the war, founded a studio from the 1930s, has been active as a commercial photographer, and had many business people in the Kansai region as customers. After the 1960s after the war, he withdrew from the commercial world and devoted himself to the production of abstract works such as paintings centered on color, and released a series entitled "What I am doing". This book contains 158 illustrations, from its masterpieces to those shot in the United States before the war. New unopened.
