SUMMARY
An upcoming exhibition titled 'Japanese Women Photographers: From 1950s to Now' at The Photographers' Gallery in London aims to correct the historical male dominance in Japanese photography. The exhibition will feature works from the mid-20th century to the present day, exploring themes such as identity, nature, motherhood, and everyday life. It includes renowned artists like Ishiuchi Miyako and figures from the 1990s new wave such as Hiromix, whose work was once dismissed as 'girls' photography'.
