CALL for ENTRIES: Emergent Artist

Posted on November 18, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

SCARY,
FURRY FOOD

Sometimes you just have to eat it. Food can be scary AND wonderful. You will never know until you eat it. Someone had to eat the first kiwi fruit, the first coconut, and the first peanut. Be brave. This next Call takes a little bravery too. More than a few of you out there are a touch jaded, and I will grant that many of you have been burned and have good reason. I just want you to remember that sometimes, just sometimes, you have to be brave…

Check out this Call for Entries for the Emergent Artist Award, conducted in partnership with the Alliance Française of Dubai, a French cultural organization. I can usually vouch for most of the galleries or competitions, but I’m going on what I could read this time. I have to admit, though, I love the idea of an international solo exhibit in two countries. It is work a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: PAC Gallery

PAINT
my PIE!

If food were a mural, I think it would be a giant, thin-crust pizza. You can put anything into it or seperate it into sections. It is nutrionally dense and can certainly say something about the artist that creates it. The thin-crust part? Well, in both art and pizza, I think it is about the toppings, not what they’re on. This next Call wants your mural ideas (pizza or non-pizza related) and more. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the PAC Gallery (Cincinnati, OH)! Don’t miss this chance to win a solo ort 2-man show. This is an unusual way to get a show, but I think that makes it worth at least a look. How ’bout you?

OPEN CALL: Art Gallery in Monterey, CA

CALIFORNIA,
not MEXICO

I’ve never been much of a milk drinker. So it is easy to forget how much dairy I consume. I recently had to start taking Cipro, a really strong antibiotic, to try to knock out a irritatingly persistent ear infection, and it can’t be taken with dairy products. I’m on day 5 of a 10 regiment, and I had no idea it would make my life so complicated. Speaking of dairy, did you know that Monterey Jack cheese was made by the Mexican Franciscan friars of Monterey, California, during the 19th century? If you go to the opening of your solo show that you got by sending a proposal to this Call, let me know if they still make it there. Better yet, pick some up for me…

Check out this Open Call for Proposals from the Monterey Peninsula College Art Gallery in Monterey, CA. The entry fee is extremely low, and if you’re looking for a solo show…this could be your opportunity!

I want
ONE OF

To TOP it all OFF

I am not a fan of maraschino cherries. But, I do understand the idea of needing that one last crowning glory on top of an already delectable treat. It is sour cream on chili.
