"The Essence of Toshiko Okanoue" is a collection of works by Toshiko Okanoue, a Japanese female artist who has been re-evaluated in recent years. A solo exhibition by Ryuichi Kaneko (1948-2021), one of Japan's leading photo historians, was held in 2000, Okanoue's first solo exhibition in 44 years. Since then, Nazraeli Press published his first collection of works in the 2000s, and in 2015 he published his first collection of works in Japan, "Harukana Tabi". Since then, he has received a great response from men and women of all ages in Japan, and an exhibition was held at the Kochi Prefectural Museum of Art in 2018 and at the Tokyo Metropolitan Teien Art Museum in 2019, making him a person of the moment. Recently, a solo exhibition by Eiko Yamazawa, a pioneering female photographer, has been held, and (female) artists who have been active since the early postwar period are attracting attention again. This is a book published by Kawade Shobo Shinsha, which published Haruka Journey, and consists of Okanoue's interviews, handwritten texts, and collage works. It is a book that summarizes the feelings such as "passion" with images and words. A small book-sized collection of works.
