CALL for ENTRIES: Big Money

Posted on August 20, 2018August 21, 2018 by R.L. Gibson

FRUITY dollars

What food can you buy for one U.S. dollar? The answer is “it depends on where you are”. Where I live, one dollar will buy you nearly 2lbs of bananas, canned beans (even organic), dried beans, yogurt & one or pieces of a lot of tree fruits like apples, oranges or pears. Make your own healthy dollar menu. This next Call has another suggestion for how to use a one dollar bill. Challenge accepted.

Check out this Call for Entries from the JF Gallery (West Palm Beach, FL) for the Big Money exhibit, featuring work on actual dollar bills. JF Gallery would like to make this a yearly show, so send them your best. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: 12 Cubed

Posted on July 12, 2018July 13, 2018 by R.L. Gibson

SWEET squared

When is the last time you saw a sugar cube in a restaurant? Me neither. Maybe I’m going to the wrong restaurants, ha. Did you know that before the Victorian-era sense of order gave us manageable single-serving size cubes of sugar, there was a person whose job it was to nip sugar into less large chunks than the cone-shaped loaf you brought home from your grocer. This next Call is all about the cube or the square or smaller. Take a look…

SWEET and sour

Lemons fix everything. You know that iced tea that is too bitter at your local diner. Lemon. And that soft drink that is too much syrup and not enough carbonation. Lemon, again. The vodka cranberry make with too much juice? Lemon works better than lime. It truly is a miracle fruit. The gallery sponsoring this next Call comes with lemon built into the name. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: NY Int’l Mini Print

WINE and dine

If you are an apartment or city dweller, it is exciting to trip across another fruit or veg that can grown in a container. A friend from Atlanta recently sent me pics of the grapevine she is growing in a container on her balcony. Potted grapes, seriously. The grapes aren’t miniature; it can just be grown a miniature scale. She claims it is going to produce fruit in its first year too! This next Call wants your miniatures — a maximum of 9 square inches. Printmaking shows aren’t that commons, so don’t miss this opportunity…

small FOODS

Two of the most used utensils in my kitchen are ice cream scoops, and neither gets used for ice cream. We haven’t make full pans of brownies or cornbread or cake in years. We use those scoops to portion everything from quiche to bread in muffin tins. With everyone on the go, we find single-serving sized foods make for fewer excuses for not taking quality food from home. As a gallerist, I’ve found that small works often take the I-don’t-have-room objection off the table too. This next Call wants the best of your small work. This is a great opportunity…

CALL for ENTRIES: Tiny Monsters

Posted on April 16, 2017April 17, 2017 by R.L. Gibson

gooseBERRIES

Pineapples are showing up in mass at every grocer right now. I can’t eat enough to take advantage of the availability, so I was contemplating making jelly or jam. As you may know, pineapple fights the jelling process, so you have to use nearly twice as much pectin to make it work –which defeats the purpose of buying on sale. Maybe I can freeze the cleaned pineapple and wait for gooseberries come into season. These little treasures have huge amounts of pectin and can be made into jelly without ANY additional pectin. This next Call wants your little treasures, but they must be monstrous…

beware the DELI MEATS

My first encounter with a peppercorn was in olive loaf. My father deluded himself into the notion that a seven year old was the target audience for this studded meat product. I survived. I love olives, and fresh peppercorns make my stock & dressings sing. (I still shun the loaf of olive, though.) Both olives & peppercorns are perfect example huge impact in tiny packages — the inspiration for the next Call. Take a look…

Nourishment is personal. Salt is a perfect example. There is no other edible substance that I can think of that is more divisive. One simple dusting of salt can define the line between edible or not for a huge range of people. Be it food or artistic inspiration, how you feed yourself has to be personal. What else could it be? This Call is personal for me. I have been hungry, physically & creatively; have you? The show is short and simple. I have extended the deadline in an effort to include more work from more artists. Your support will determine the growth of this opportunity. Please make it personal for you too…

Food is so personal. A client recently asked if I had any dietary restrictions so that she could be prepared for our branding consultation that will span a lunch time. I’m allergic to parsnips, which is rarely an issue, and wheat which is always an issue. Always. Her response? We grow our own heirloom corn varietals from which we grind our own corn meal for cornbread.” Food is PERSONAL, and this next Call couldn’t be any more personal.
