"The Model Wife"
2000-10-22 until 2001-01-21
Museum of Photographic Arts
San Diego, CA, USA United States of America

This exhibition, curated by MoPA Director Arthur Ollman, explores the most complex relationship undertaken by any two people: that of marriage. The Model Wife offers intimate perspectives, over an unbroken chain of 100 years, on the marital relationship through the work of nine photographers whose spouses served as models: Baron Adolph de Meyer, Alfred Stieglitz, Edward Weston, Harry Callahan, Emmet Gowin, Lee Friedlander, Masahisa Fukase, Nicholas Nixon and Seichi Furuya.

In each case, the photographer/spouse collaboration resulted in the creation of some of the artists most lasting and significant work. The Model Wife includes many images which are rarely seen and that have never been published. A 220-page lavishly illustrated catalogue (published by Bulfinch Press) accompanies the exhibition. The exhibition will travel to The Cleveland Museum of Art in 2001.
