CALL for ENTRIES: Expo 31 — Last Call!

Posted on October 8, 2011October 8, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

No NAPPING!

What food helps you get to sleep quickly? Well, honestly, almost any food helps me sleep because I am usually so exhausted that I can fall sleep after eating virtually anything. The idea of warm milk is pretty nauseating, and I’ve never developed a taste for hot tea, either. I have friends that swear by melatonin supplements, and a few that are addicted to over-the-counter PM drugs. Those drugs give me a hangover, and melatonin just doesn’t do anything for me. Luckily my days of insomnia seem to be over. So I have a request of you… don’t doze off while reading this next Call (a repost) because the deadline is almost here for the New York show. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the B.J. Spoke Gallery (Huntington, NY) for Expo 31, their Annual National Juried exhibit. The entry fee is only $35 for up to SIX entries, but the deadline is less than three weeks away. So, don’t procrastinate and miss this opportunity…

You know I love food and kitchen gadgets. But I am baffled by kitchen design. I am beginning the design my new kitchen. It makes me feel a little crazy. It will probably be the very last kitchen I ever use. No pressure, eh. I’m a sucker for both minimalism and bright colors. Did I mention art? I have kitchen art. How will I make it all fit? This next call asks you to make your own kitchen contribution. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Mystery of Man

Posted on October 4, 2011October 4, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

TO THE MOON

I loved drinking Tang as a kid, did you? Formulated by General Foods Corporation, it was first marketed in powdered form in 1959. But sales of the powdered breakfast drink were poor until NASA used Tang on John Glenn’s Mercury flight, and subsequent Gemini missions. If space flight sold an orange-flavored, maybe this next call for scientific exploration can sell you artwork. Time for an experiment of your very own…

Check out this Call for Entries for Mystery of Man at The Satellite Galleries which are a part of Science Museum Oklahoma in Oklahoma City, OK. This is a classic question every artist tackles once in their career. Here’s YOUR shot…

*Editor’s Note: If you are reading the post CALL for ENTRIES: Mystery of Man anywhere other than by email subscription or on https://www.artandartdeadlines.com/, it has been published without permission and is considered theft.

CALL for ENTRIES: Mystery of Man

Mystery of Man is a multi-media exhibition open to all artists. Mystery of Man seeks to revive the classicist notion that both art and science are mediums of understanding. Throughout history, societies have employed both mediums to negotiate ideas of self and the meaning of existence. Through this lens, works selected will address one or many of the following questions:

-Where or what did we come from?
-Why are we here?
-What is reality?
-How do we interpret the self?

Works will be juried based on their relevance to the above questions and the quality of their craftsmanship.

ELIGIBILITY:
Open to all artists.

MEDIA: Multi-Media. *Editor’s Note: I think they meant multiple media or all-media because there are no guidelines that indicate true multi-media as a requirement.

DEADLINE:
January 11, 2012

NOTIFICATION: Febuary 7, 2012

ENTRY FEE: $35 for up to 3 works; additional entries are $10 each.

JURORS: As Executive Director of OVAC since 1999, Julia Kirt has worked to create resources for rural, urban, emerging and experienced artists and transform Oklahoma’s valuation of artists. She was honored as the “Emerging Leader” by the Americans for the Arts in 2008 and participated in the 2009 Leadership Institute organized by the National Alliance for Media Arts and Culture funded by The Andy Warhol Foundation. Kirt completed an MA in Art History at the University of Oklahoma and earned a BA in Communication Studies from Macalester College in St. Paul, MN.

Kelly Foshee received her MFA from the University of Tulsa in 2002. Her work has been exhibited in galleries and museums across the country. For many years, she has served as a teaching artist for the Philbrook Museum of Art, as well as an adjunct instructor of printmaking at the University of Tulsa. She currently works as the studio art and art history instructor for the Tulsa School of Arts and Sciences.

SALES:
Artists may offer up their artwork for sale.
While Satellite Galleries are primarily an exhibition space,
a 30% commission is taken from art sales to help cover costs
of maintaining quality shows and
the staff necessary to run the exhibition space.

CALL for ENTRIES: In Time

Posted on October 3, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

TICK TOCK,
TICK TOCK,
TICK TOCK

I prefer immediate gratification, be it chocolate or laundry. I simply don’t like to wait. That is one of the many reasons that I don’t bake chocolate soufflés–because I cannot handle the agony of seeing if it will turn out beautiful and puffed or flat and dreary. I lose enthusiasm for the whole laundry process during the dry time too (not that I am generally very enthused about it to start with). Although, I will take soufflé baking over laundry any day of the week. This next Call is a perfect opportunity for you to contemplate the passage of time, and not just of food and laundry. Think about it…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Kiernan Gallery in Lexington, VA for In Time. This entry fee is low, and I love the concept of contemplating the passage of time, a reflection if you will. Take a look!

*Editor’s Note: If you are reading the post CALL for ENTRIES: In Time anywhere other than by email subscription or on www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com, it has been published without permission and is considered theft.

CALL for ENTRIES: In Time

Time is an essential element of science, philosophy, and religion. Nonetheless its definition has continuously eluded the greatest minds. For In Time, The Kiernan Gallery welcomes images that interpret and define Time as subject matter, whether it be in a historical context of the then and now, time lapse, events and the interval between them, of a crucial moment, preserved for eternity. In a sense, every photograph is an embodiment of time.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists internationally.

MEDIA: All photographic media are encouraged.

DEADLINE:
October 26, 2011

NOTIFICATION:
On or around November 3, 2011

ENTRY FEE:
$25 for up to $5 images, then $5 per additional image up to a total of 10 images.

JUROR: Blake Fitch received her BFA on full scholarship from Pratt Institute (1994), with a major in photography and a minor in photo history. She earned her MA in Arts Administration from Boston University in 2001. Documentary in nature, Fitch’s work has focused on the human condition, including themes of: identiry, rites of passage, civil rights, belonging and the investigation of community in third world countries. Her work has been described as graceful and confident. The quality and breadth of her imagery has enabled her to receive a variety of grants and sponsorships including support from Kodak and Calumet Photographic. Her work has been exhibited internationally and held in the collections of numerous museums, including the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Worcester Art Museum, and the George Eastman House of Photography.

AWARDS: The juror will select up to 30 images for display in the main gallery, as well as up to an additional 40 for display in the online gallery. All accepted photographs are eligible for inclusion in a full color exhibition catalogue available for purchase from Blurb Books.

SALES: Artists exhibiting at the gallery may offer their work for sale. The Kiernan Gallery retains 30% of the sale price as commission.

CALL for ENTRIES: Center for Photographic Art

GRAPES,
not raisins

Never miss a food field trip, be it big or small. Like anything else in life, if you miss an opportunity, sometimes you simply don’t ever get the chance again. Perfect example, I have lots of business in California these days in regards to this blogging empire (ha), personal art shows, group shows, etc., but because I didn’t visit The American Center for Wine, Food and the Arts when I DIDN’T have business in California, the opportunity is lost. Their doors closed in 2008. Pick the grapes when they are ripe, folks. This next call is an opportunity in an entirely different kind of Center. Don’t miss this one…

CALL for ENTRIES: Small Works at Soo Rye

Posted on September 29, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

TELL ME RYE

I am a fan of bold flavors, but I’ve never developed a taste for caraway seeds also known as rye. The one exception to my caraway seed rule is pumpernickel rye bread. Maybe it is the earthy texture of the pumpernickel and the more practical everyday uses for bread that make it my exception. This next Call is my second exception for acceptable rye. This is a great holiday opportunity…

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!

CALL for ENTRIES: 8 Fluid Ounces 2012

Posted on September 27, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

BOTTOMS UP

I prefer to drink my soup. Chowder and stew? Give me a spoon and a bowl, but soup calls for the perfect cup. The handle has to be big enough for me to slide my four fingers through, warming my palm against the cup. Should be sturdy enough to keep the soup warm while I sip, but not too heavy to hold for the duration. This next Call might give me a way to drink my soup out of a beautiful piece of art. Trip to Louisiana anyone?

Check out this Call for Entries from The Glassell Gallery at the LSU School of Art in Baton Rouge, Louisiana for 8 Fluid Ounces, a ceramic cup show. This is a cool concept, and you have to check out the sales price cap. Sales just after the holidays can ONLY be good…

CALL for ENTRIES: Illusion and Chemistry

Posted on September 25, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

VERY DIRTY,
PLEASE

I love the fusion of classic dishes and modern cuisine. Deconstructed dishes are a perfect example. Like the caesar salad that comes with a mound of romaine, a poached egg and a sardine on crostini. Okay, that may be a little on the fringe. Maybe the pomegranite martini is a better example…shaken, not stirred. No, I prefer classic dirty martinis with lots o’ olives. Anyway, this next Call is a perfect opportunity to learn a new process…be it old & new to you or new & new to you. Think about it…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Kiernan Gallery in Lexington, VA for Illusion and Chemistry: The Alternative Process. This entry fee is low, and I love the concept of mixing old and new. Take a look!

CALL for ENTRIES: Illusion and Chemistry

Alternative process photography today is a hybrid of historical techniques and contemporary ideas. Despite, or perhaps because of, the digital revolution, early printing processes are in revival. Whether it is in reaction to digital, or a hybrid process aided by the technology, these techniques remain as evocative and dreamy as they ever were, bringing a unique style to present-day ideas. For Illusion and Chemistry: The Alternative Process, the Kiernan Gallery seeks images that use any alternative processing technique for any idea you wish to express.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists internationally.

MEDIA: Any photographic print created as a product of a non-traditional process is eligible. Processes may include but are not limited to: Albumen, Bromoil, Cyanotype, Daguerreotypes, Gum Bichromate, Platinotypes, Salt Prints, Temeraprints, Tintypes, Wet Plate Collodion. Hybrid or Combination images incorporating conventional (including digital) processes with hand-crafted applications are also eligible. Conventional techniques such as Silver Gelatin, Digital, and C-prints are not eligible.

DEADLINE:
November 25, 2011

NOTIFICATION:
On or around December 3, 2011

ENTRY FEE:
$25 for up to $5 images, then $5 per additional image up to a total of 10 images.

JUROR: Christopher James is an internationally known artist and photographer whose paintings and alternative process images have been exhibited in galleries and museums in this country and abroad.

His work has been published and shown extensively, including shows in The Museum of Modern Art, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The George Eastman House, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

In 2008, a greatly expanded, and lavishly illustrated 2nd edition was published by Delmar Cengage and has become universally recognized as the definitive text in the genre. A 3rd edition is currently underway and will be published in 2013. Christopher, after 13 years at Harvard University, is currently University Professor, and Director of the MFA in Photography program at The Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University.
