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

BE a
PEACH!

Road trips are an excuse to throw all food rules aside and indulge in the local flavor. Whether it is a hot dog stand in a big city or on a baseball field, a slice of apple pie in the Appalachians or peach pie in the Peach State or a sampling of milk chocolate in Hershey. Don’t miss a chance to eat local. This next Call encourages you to share your best photos of your road trips, past or present. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Darkroom Gallery in Vermont called Road Trip. Enter your work for as little as $20. Don’t forget Darkroom Gallery offers free framing & matting on accepted entries!

CALL FOR ENTRIES:
Road Trip

A road trip is synonymous with nostalgia; they are opportunities for memorable moments of exploration and experience. The best road trips are the ones that offer us indelible experiences – experiences touching the things and people that we barely get to know and may never see again, but which leave lifelong impressions.

Where have you been? What and whom did you see? How did you see them? Whether it was from a convertible or a bicycle, on trailer or train, boat, parachute or via your own two feet, you’ve captured the essence of the freedoms and inspirations we feel being ‘on the road’. Show us the photographic moments you’ve captured that will inspire our next trip.
JUROR: Douglas Beasley has taught at the University of Hawaii, Carleton College, University of Minnesota, and the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. As Founder and Director of Vision Quest Photo Workshops, Beasley is offering his insights, emphasizing personal expression and creative vision, from New Mexico to Peru, China to Africa.

Beasley photographs a variety of fine-art based commercial and editorial assignments internationally. He is represented by galleries from Hollywood to Italy, and is the recipient of numerous fellowships, grants, and awards.

CALL for ENTRIES: Fall Into Maritime

Posted on June 6, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

FAN-taff-STIC

I love salt water taffy. I love the taste and the colors and the main street feel of the shops that allow you to look on as the taffy is hand-crafted. Funny enough, most of the towns that conjure images of salt water taffy for me are no where near the coast. Odd. I wonder if the town from which this next Call hails has a salt water taffy shop? If you get into the show, let me know.

Posted on June 5, 2011June 5, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

EAT your HEART out!

Reared in the south, my family would not have dreamed of getting our Sunday meal of fried chicken from the colonel. However, getting fried chicken from a whole chicken took forever. By the time chicken was being pulled from the cast iron skillet, we were starving. I always ran off with the chicken heart, liver, and gizzards before anyone could notice. These days I prefer my appetizers in the form of chicken pate, but I miss the sneaky treat of it all. This next Call for Entries involves a different sort of heart all together. This is an excellent opportunity…

CALL for ENTRIES: Illegitimate & Herstorical

Posted on June 2, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

TWIGS for your TEETH

I love non-traditional foods and flavors. I recently took a guided hike with A Walk in the Woods where we tasted everything from spicebush (pictured left) to nature’s toothbrush, the birch twig. But, I suppose most non-traditional foods are not non-traditional to someone somewhere. It is all a matter of perspective. This Call for Entries is part of an on-going effort on the part of the gallery to use non-traditional curators. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Cork Street Open in London

Posted on May 30, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

dem BONES dem BONES

I get questioned regularly about the role of food in this art blog. I understand your confusion. I know all artists are not foodies. I know you aren’t all going to run out and order roasted bone marrow for dinner. Food commentary is my distracted motivation. It helps me take a fresh approach everyday. So, try to learn from and enjoy the food references, but make sure to stay motivated enough to enter this next GREAT show in London!

Check out this Call for Entries for the Cork Street Open Exhibition held at both the Gallery at Cork Street and Gallery 27 in London. Enter almost any media online for as little as £20 (~$33 USD) for your shot at this London show by June 12th! Don’t miss out…

JUROR: Stuart Semple is a British painter who has achieved widespread critical acclaim as a provocative image-maker, social commentator and visual spokesperson. His worldwide blockbuster exhibition schedule humbly grew from sales of his drawings for just a couple of pounds on eBay. Quickly his following expanded furiously and by the age of just 21 he had sold over 3000 works and held his first sell-out solo exhibition in London. He now exhibits worldwide, curates for leading institutions and writes for national publications, including a column for Art Of England. His canvases are preserved in the Getty, Langen, David Roberts and Niarchos foundations.

Giles Baker-Smith has been working at the heart of the London art world continuously for 25 years, specializing in nineteenth and twentieth century British and European painting, and contemporary art.

Martin Newman is the art critic and assistant news editor at the Daily Mirror. He graduated from Sydney University with a degree in literature and fine arts in 1991 and has worked as a journalist for almost 20 years and an art reviewer for the past dozen. He professes to liking all forms of art from classical realism to snow sculptures and video installations, and believes that art = beauty.

Laura Noble is a London based Artist, Writer and Director of Diemar/Noble Photography, a new Commercial Gallery in the heart of London’s West End.

She also contributes to magazines including: Eyemazing, Snoecks, LIP, Photoicon, Image, Next Level, Foam & Leisure Center and is Editor at Large for Photoicon Magazine.

Louis Singh says, “St Ives in the 1970s was a somewhat lazier place than today. Late morning deals were customarily made with cigarette in one hand and glass of sherry in the other. Back then my father had the Wills Lane gallery which ensured my mind was constantly flooded with images of the St Ives School as soon as my eyes had opened. When I was ten my parents opened the Beaux Arts gallery in Bath which continued to nurture these Cornish roots. These days with a sister gallery in London, minus the sherry, not much has changed. I busy myself by keeping the gallery from growing old by steering some youth and raw contemporary talent, towards its doors.”

AWARDS: More than £6,000 in Cash Awards and Prizes. Grand Prize £2,500 (approx. $4125 USD); Runner Up Prize £1,000 (approx. $1650 USD); Visitor’s Choice Award £750; Young Artist Prize £750; Cash Prize winners will also be featured in a second group exhibition of work at the Gallery in Cork Street in January 2012.

CALL for ART ENTRIES: Toyed With

NO EXTRA
STARCH,
please!

Newer isn’t always better. Once upon a time, all fast-food french fries were similar to the yumminess that is McDonald’s fries. But about a decade ago, someone (to protect the guilty, I won’t mention their names) decided that all fast food fries needed to be crispier and started add weird stuff to mashed potatoes and extruding a fry-like stick that my family calls “starch sticks.” Luckily, the golden fries from the golden arches remain the same as always. This next Call gives you an opportunity to prove that newer isn’t always better.
