Stir

CALL for ENTRIES:
Still Life

From Dutch masters’ paintings to contemporary photography, the still life has played an important role in art history. This genre grants the artist complete control over their subjects, allowing unparalleled ability to select details and manipulate the scene.

Still lifes often employ symbolism, where the objects assume their own character and identity. An entire story can be told with the arrangement of a few items; toys, dolls, and household goods become surrogates, and natural life is given a persona. For Still Life: The Art of Arrangement, The Kiernan Gallery seeks evocative and symbolic still life images.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All photographic media are encouraged.

DEADLINE: August 20, 2012

NOTIFICATION: Artists will be notified of accepted work via email approximately eight days after the submission deadline.

ENTRY FEE: 5 for $25, each add’l $5

He regularly attends portfolio review events and photography art fairs both nationally and internationally, has juried group exhibitions, and has lectured at regional and national art colleges and universities.

Landry received an MFA in Visual Arts from The Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University and a BFA in Photography from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design. He and his wife Anne are avid photography collectors and he is a Corporator on the Board of Directors for the Griffin Museum of Photography.

AWARDS: For this exhibition, juror Jason Landry will select up to 30 images for display in the main gallery, and up to an additional 40 to be included in the online gallery.

CALL for ENTRIES: Mona Lisa

Posted on July 29, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

…and a
devilish grin

I have so many guilty food pleasures. One of my favorites is provolone wrapped in prosciutto, stuffed in a pickled cherry pepper and marinated in olive oil. Cheese and salty pork in a fiery pepper, soaked in oil. Sounds healthy, eh? Not. But my delightfully clever husband comes home with a half-dozen occasionally. I look at them disapprovingly, and he always says with a devilish grin, “I’m sorry, are we behaving this week? I didn’t know.” I love that grin. This next Call is an ode to a different devilish grin all toghether. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: New Images

Posted on July 27, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

NEW DAY,
new taters

Does it feel like you eat the same thing day after day. Me too, somedays. To break things up at my house, we challenge ourselves. Last month it was a huge increase in veggies with a concentration of stuff we never buy–like spaghetti squash and kale. This month, it is a reduction of dairy and meat. It isn’t necessarily about the benefit of a particular change so much as the results of having to think about food differently. We end up eating crazy concoctions that we might never have otherwise tried. This next Call has an open theme, but it has to be new (as of January 2011). Time to make a change, folks…

SMALL, mini,
micro

I prefer immediate gratification. Immature? Sure, I can admit it. I don’t share well either, but I digress. So, my garden got planted late due to the heat, and some procrastination. So I have the perfect solution to all my impatience and procrastination. What is I yank up my plantings early and just call them microgreens? Mmmmhmmm. This next Call wants your legitimately small works. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Patterns

Posted on July 20, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

NOT pizza
AGAIN!

It takes great restraint not to continue food patterns in our menus. I am guilty of taco night, pizza night, and buffalo chicken night. I am trying to rationalize it by changing up the taco and pizza ingredients, but it is a pattern, nonetheless. I’m not saying it si a bad thing, I just think it can lead to dangerous stall patterns that end in pre-packaged and fast food that I try to live without. This next Call wants to know all about your patterns. Let’s see ’em, folks…

CALL for ENTRIES: id – The Object of Self

Posted on July 19, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

An APPLE
a day…

I have fought a lifelong battle with apples. I like Granny Smiths, but I avoid the mealiness of Red Delicious. I like apple pie and apple butter, but I try to avoid the massive refined sugar intake. I have a newly found love of home-dried October Black apples from our local orchard, but I am still coming to grips with the other preparations. This next Call wants to see if you might be the apple of your own eye. Investigate…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for id – The Object of Self. The entry fee at Darkroom is always low ($20), and they will provide free matting & framing if you work in their standard sizes. The jury method for this one is a change from the norm. Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: If you enter, please make sure to let them know that you found the Call on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com. We’ve got a great history with them…including Best of Show!

CALL for ENTRIES:
id – The Object of Self

The self-portrait: Is it your compulsion? Your obsession? An impulse?

Was it out of necessity (the mandatory Photo 101 exercise, a portrait for the office newsletter, or because you needed to self-promote)? Is it the autobiographical record you decided was best told in image?

Sometimes we have to step in front of the lens – we can’t seem to communicate what we want to others, or maybe we’re just the most convenient choice for a model (the least expensive, for sure). Even if we got there by default, there is no one better able to translate our vision to the camera than ourselves. Perhaps you were experimenting with persona or striving for a personal perfection? Were you desperately seeking Self?

For those willing to dig deep and bare all, the self-portrait is a reward for your bravery – because whether you love it or hide it in the depths of your archives for decades, you’ve learned from it. Whatever your intention, there is nothing closer to an authentic portrait, than to sit both behind and in front of the lens. And whether for totally narcissistic or completely humble intents – you have to admit, it’s you.

ELIGIBILITY: Entrants must be at least 18 years old. If younger, you must have a legal guardian make the submission for you.

MEDIA:
Photography

DEADLINE:
August 22, 2012

NOTIFICATION:
September 5, 2012

JUROR: Cig Harvey exhibits internationally, teaches internationally, and photographs everywhere in between. She balances her always imperative personal imaging pursuits with a large number of commercial clients. She is published widely, has won numerous awards, and retains a reputation as an instructor/mentor that leaves waiting lists worldwide.

Cig will choose a Juror’s Choice and honorable mentions, but otherwise, it’s all YOU! Each of you who submits your self-portraits will be able to vote for up to four images (including one of yours if you’re that confident!). No anxiety here…images will be anonymous, labeled with titles and medium only if provided by their authors. You will not know who you are voting for, and your peers will not know who you voted for. Only those who make a submission will have access to vote. Though you are not required to vote, by submitting your images, you give the other submitters the right to view (and vote for) your images. The 50 to 60 images that get the most votes will be showcased in our gallery and online.

AWARDS: All selected entries are exhibited in the gallery and included in a full color exhibit catalog. Juror’s Choice receives a 20×35″ vinyl exhibit banner featuring their image. People’s Choice gains free entry into a future exhibit.

SALES: Darkroom offers free matting and framing of accepted entries for the duration of each of their exhibitions, subject to standard sizes. Photographers set their own prices if they wish to sell their work and retain all rights to their photographs. For commission details, go to the bottom of the Submisssion Rules page!

CALL for ENTRIES: USEA – Surliest Symposium of Electronic Art

Posted on July 16, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

PEAS,
please

I wish all food were pretty. But, it isn’t. I love lentil soup, but it tends to look like mud. I love asparagus marinated in balsalmic vineager, but I tends to look like it has been sitting in motor oil. Peas soup is heaven, but we won’t even talk about what it looks like. Mud. These foods are clear as mud. This next Call will be clear a mud to a few of you. Take a deep breath and remember that sometimes it is all worth it in the end. Investigate, at least…
