The Star of All Things, Y.M.H.A. News, August 1915 Some of Meyer Wolfe’s earliest acclaim was for his drawings published in The Nashville Y.M.H.A. News. In this cartoon, Meyer, or “Mike” as friends called him, pokes fun at his varied activities, including his job as a store window dresser. Image courtesy of Tennessee State Museum Nashville Tennessean and the Nashville American May 21, 1918 A protégé of Tennessean political cartoonist and future Pulitzer winner Carey Orr, Wolfe moved to Chicago in 1917 and briefly attended the Art Institute. When his studies were upended by World War I, he returned to Nashville where this drawing was published, noting him as “the pupil of Carey Orr.” Untitled (Tennis Match) Pen and ink c. 1922 From roughly 1918 to 1926, Meyer Wolfe worked in New York as an illustrator for a newspaper syndicate. This pen and ink drawing is an example of his commercial artwork from the period. Through his illustration work Wolfe saved enough money to travel to Europe in 1926. Courtesy of Dr. and Mrs. Lawrence K. Wolfe. Sketchbook 1919 Based on its handwritten date and cover inscription, this collection of sketches is from Wolfe’s enrollment at New York’s Art Student League.

PRESS RELEASE for Immediate Release
3834 Main Street California Museum of Photography Riverside, CA 92501 Sweeney Art Gallery 951.827.3755 Culver Center of the Arts culvercenter.ucr.edu sweeney.ucr.edu University of California, Riverside cmp.ucr.edu artsblock.ucr.edu PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release UCR ARTSblock presents the exhibition Trouble with the Index Walead Beshty, Matthew Brandt, John Divola, Victoria Fu, Farrah Karapetian, Heather Rasmussen, James Welling, Jennifer West, and Mario Ybarra, Jr. February 1–June 21, 2014 RIVERSIDE, Calif., Dec. 20, 2013 – The California Museum of Photography at UCR ARTSblock presents Trouble with the Index, on view in the main gallery of the museum from February 1 through June 21, 2014, featuring works by Walead Beshty, Matthew Brandt, John Divola, Victoria Fu, Farrah Karapetian, Heather Rasmussen, James Welling, Jennifer West, and Mario Ybarra, Jr. A reception celebrating this and other exhibitions will be held at the museum on Saturday, February 1, 6-9pm, and is free and open to the public. The truth of photographs has always been conflicted. Light hits sensitized paper to produce a picture of the world, capturing a moment in time. This was here, every photograph asserts. But the picture is flat and static, bound by edges and defined by depth of field, reproducible and variable in size: an artificial organization of a world that is spatial and temporal. Nevertheless, this was here. Since photography was invented, it has carried with it this basic condition of “indexicality.” A photograph must exhibit some element of proof, some trace of reality, to be a photograph. Trouble with the Index presents a selection of photographs by Southern California- based artists whose work grapples with this complicated state of photographic truth. -
