This book is a collection of catalog works published on the occasion of the exhibition "Private Room II: A New Generation of Photographic Expression: Mito Annual '99" held at the Contemporary Art Gallery, Art Tower Mito in the spring of 1999. An exhibition held in 1996 under the name "Private Room: Everyday Life as Photographs." It's not about politics, economics, or society. This exhibition is set up as a sequel to the previous exhibition, in which the works take motifs from everyday life, and the venue's ``room'' itself becomes a work of art. From the "public" to the "private," a sense of privacy was emphasized in both objects and themes, and images captured from a "private" perspective rather than records were considered art, and it seems that this has become a new culture. There are many photographers who symbolize this era. Jun Kanno, Satomi Shirai, Yurie Nagashima, Aiko Nakano, Mika Ninagawa, Rika Noguchi, Keiko Nomura, Mikiko Hara, Maki Miyashita, and Kaori Yamamoto exhibited. It consists of two volumes: a data edition and a record edition.
