BARBECUE!

Why can’t we play with our food?  If I have to get my kid to use green peas as a moat to his mashed potato castle to get dinner eat, well, so be it.  And honestly, you can’t tell me that having the requisite clown face of barbeque sauce while eating ribs isn’t part of the the yum of it all.  I’ll play with my food if I want to.  This next call wants to see what you consider play.  What will it be?

“Ahhhhhh….play.  When I was a little girl I had an imaginary friend named Jingo.  We contentedly played for hours.  I even insisted my mother set a place at the dinner table for my special friend.  Now that I’m all grown up, I seem to do much of my playing on my iPhone.  Angry Birds and photography apps occupy my play time.   So however, whenever and with whomever, look through your viewfinder and see what kind of “Play” you can capture. “ — from the A. Smith Gallery website.

BERRIES

I AM an emotional eater, and “grumpy” is not an unusual reason for a snack at my house.  Just like when I am sick, it is comfort (read junk) food that elevates my mood.  Macaroni and cheese, potato chips and dip, tortilla chips and salsa, peanut butter and donuts (this one may just be me), baked brie ‘n’ raspberries…all reasons for a happy face and, in my case, a larger arse.  But sometimes, you have to do something just because it makes you happy.  This next Call makes me happy, and I hope that is a good enough reason for you to enter.  Take a look…

Just a year or so after the 25th anniversary of my birth, I began my love affair with cheese. Well, more accurately, I began working behind the counter of a gourmet cheese shop.  A world that had previously been defined by cheddar, Swiss and American cheeses now suddenly included choices between cow, goat and even sheep’s milk cheeses.  Sometimes 25 years is the turning point.  This next call wants to see your perspective on the past 25 years’ events.  Whatcha got?

June Installationz

 

This June, ARTs East New York is hosting a pop-up gallery tour and invites artists in all disciplines to submit work for exhibition relating to the three themes below.  All three exhibitions will be part of a one-night pop-up gallery tour on June 22nd in East New York. I ART East New York will be displayed in establishments around the New Lots Triangle.  Juneteeth will be showcased about the perimeter of the New Lots Library.  Threadz will have a month long run at the ARTs East New York gallery.

ART East New York:  East New York might be somewhere you visit, the place where you work or the community you call home.  Even if you’ve only heard about the neighborhood, we invite you to explore East New York through your art.  Pieces that most creatively and positively portray the culture, character and community of this Brooklyn destination will be chosen for exhibition.

Juneteenth: A Revelation of Freedom:  Juneteenth commemorates the day on which African Americans in Texas, who had been kept enslaved two and a half years past the abolition of slavery, finally received news of their freedom.  For this exhibit, we are requesting works that celebrate this moment of enlightenment, pay homage to ancestors who afforded this autonomy and investigate the African diaspora at large as a legacy of liberation.  Pieces that best honor and examine the legacy of the African experience in the United States will be included in this important exhibit.

Learn more about ARTs East New York!Threadz: Untwining Mistaken Messages Within the Fabric of Hip Hop.  The tragic murder of Trayvon Martin forces us to think seriously about perceptions of Hip Hop culture and its representations in mainstream society.  The reigning image of Black youth centers on the Hip Hop aesthetic, a mode of expression that can be identified by styles of art and fashion.  We ask artists to examine Hip Hop as a depiction of the urban lifestyle, its reception by the larger public and its potential for positively reflecting the African American youth experience.  This exhibition is being held in honor of Trayvon Martin, and works speaking directly to this heartbreaking death, and its connection to Hip Hop, are especially encouraged.

CALL for ENTRIES: Ten Second Film Festival

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!PASS THE SPOON,
please

I am the soup queen. I accidentally found out during a run of bad weather one winter during which we couldn’t make it to the grocery store that I am really good at making soup. I had a whole series of artwork happen because I accidentally put myself in a situation where I was trapped at home too. My point? Maybe life is just a series of accidents, and with any luck, maybe more of them will be happy than not. If you’ve accidentally (or purposefully) shot 10 seconds of good film, here’s your chance to put it to good use.

Check out this Call for Entries from The Soap Factory for Ten Second Film Festival. It is free to enter. You can email your entry. And your work could have an audience of thousands. What do you have to lose?

There is a point at which loving food turns into a food obsession.

One of my very favorite foods as a kid was animal crackers.  I liked to line them up in pairs and then bite off their heads and legs before eating the bodies.  A little gruesome, and I’m not certain what that says about me.  But I do crack my goldfish crackers in half before I eat them even now.  Do food interpreters (like dream interpreters) exist?  Clearly I need one.  My prescription?  Buy a box of animal crackers for inspiration for this next call…
