MATERS & PUMPKINS
maters and pumpkins

We always miss the things we can’t have. I can no longer have vine-ripened tomatoes from my local grower, and by the time Spring gets here, I’ll be craving them like chocolate. But, I’m that way about pumpkin during the Summer too. This next Call is a rare find for the printmakers out there. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Pop Effects

Posted on November 15, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

SNAP, CRACKLE, POP,
but not the cereal

Did you know they make CHOCOLATE Pop Rocks®? I loved Pop Rocks® as a kid, and I love that they were ahead of their time both conceptually and graphically. Although Pop Rocks® hit the market in the mid 1970s, their packaging graphics still echo 1980s pop culture. But chocolate coated? I’ll reserve judgement until I can get my hands of them. In the meantime, this next Call is all about the POP. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Cade Center for Fine Arts Gallery and the Anne Arundel Community College (Arnold, MD) for Pop Effects. The entry fee is low, the theme is great, and the show is academic. Don’t miss this chance…

HOME GROWN

I believe in buying locally grown food. I’d like to say my motivating factor is green; however, truth-be-told, it just tastes better. Something that travels 50 miles to my table is just going to be fresher than something that travels 500 or even 5000 miles to my table. This next Call is local FOR ME, but it is a great opportunity for some of you as well…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Arts & Culture Alliance for the National Juried Exhibition of 2012. This is a great show run by a great organization. I’ve shown here several times. Take a look…

I YAM
what I am

I’m not a fan of mustard greens. I love spinach, but mustard greens do nothing for me. I’m told exposure therapy is the answer, and that it is an acquired taste. Really? I don’t want to work hard to like food. This next Call could be exposure in a good way. Investigate…

Check out this Call for Entries from ArtAVita.com for their 4th Art Contest! The entry fee is cheap, and it could be great exposure for you even if you don’t win the cash prize. Take a look…

REMINDER: Open Call in Monterey

Posted on October 11, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

OH MY DARLIN’

It is clementine season. Every year around this time, clementines start popping up in the grocery store, and every year I muse over the fact that they seem more like summer fruit than winter. Did you know that in California (where they were grown as early as 1904), a lot of people call them Christmas Oranges? Who knew. This next Call also hails from California. Take a look!

CALL for ENTRIES: LBIF Small Works

Posted on October 7, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

LESS please

You know I love tiny foods. We’ve talked about micro greens, baby vegetables and amuse bouche more times than I can count; however, sometimes a smaller size is just practical. I am addicted to spaghetti squash, and I am constantly on the hunt for the smallest one I can find. How much food a spaghetti squash produces is just crazy. This next Call is all about size…regardless of the reason. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Global Mail Art

Posted on September 18, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

CALL ME
a chicken

I am obsessed with food because I love the TASTE of food. I am not into eating foods for the sake of saying that I have eaten them. Century eggs are a perfect example. I cannot think of a reason to eat a 100-year-old egg that has been preserved in clay, ash and lime. Telling me that the yolk has the smell of sulfur and ammonia does not make me any more likely to want to eat it. Someone else already has a job eating Bizarre Foods, so I’ll pass. This next Call is a much better way to celebrate 100 years. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from LULA Lake Worth Arts for the Global Mail Art Exhibition in celebration of Lake Worth Florida’s Centennial Celebration. This is an all-hung show that might help some of you pad your resumes. Plus, mail art is fun. I love to see what I can get the US Postal system to take….

CALL for ENTRIES:
Global Mail Art

Calligraphers and artists are invited to participate in LULA’s Global Mail Art Exhibition: Lake Worth 100. Mail art is the most democratic form of art. The direct exchange of creative work is a worldwide cultural movement that began in the early 1960’s and involves sending visual art on envelopes. Traveling the world through mail art can be a rewarding experience that operates within a spirit of “anything goes” which brings to the surface everybody’s creative side.

Decorated envelopes are one-of-a-kind artworks with the handwritten address becoming part of the work. Please join LULA and send a decorated envelope as we celebrate Lake Worth’s Centennial.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Mail art. Please use hand-executed lettering to address your envelope. You may use paint, ink, colored pencil, rubber stamps, or other standard media for illustrations on your envelope.

DEADLINE: November 15, 2013 (This is not a typo, folks. The deadline is over a year away!)

NOTIFICATION: Sign your envelope in the bottom right hand corner on back and include your email address and they will notify you of it’s arrival.

ENTRY FEE: None

JURY: None (all hung)

AWARDS: All mail art will be exhibited throughout Downtown Lake Worth during the Centennial year and linked to the Lake Worth Centennial web site, the City of Lake Worth web site, and can be viewed on the LULA’s Global Mail Art Exhibition: Lake Worth 100 Facebook page. In addition, daily arrivals will be posted on their blog.

CALL for ENTRIES: Abstract is Real

Posted on September 17, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

ABSTRACTLY
tasting

I find deconstructed food fascinating. I love to see a chef’s abstract interpretation of a classic like Caesar Salad or Boston Clam Chowder. I NEVER expect it to actually taste like the classic dish, but I have never been disappointed. Really. It is truly art on a plate. This next Call is all about the Abstract. Intrigued?

Check out this Call for Entries from EWNS Art Project (France) for the Abstract is Real exhibit. Selection for this show gets you into an online gallery, AND pre-selects you the Paris gallery exhibition in 2012/2014. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Szpilman Award

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

ROCK or ROLL
foods

Some foods are fleeting. I love it when foods are only available for a couple of weeks. It is a snooze-and-you-lose kind of situation. Romanesco broccoli is a great example. It is a fabulously alien looking vegetable, and the season isn’t all that short, but it is rarely found for more than a couple of weeks at grocers. This next Call is all about the value in the fleeting. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for the Szpilman Award from Szpilman (a group of artists, based in Berlin and Frankfurt, Germany) given to ephemeral works. There is no entry fee, but the postmark deadline is just around the corner. Don’t miss this opportunity!

CALL for ENTRIES: Arte Laguna

Posted on September 15, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

NIGHT CAP

Dessert wines are one of my many guilty pleasures. Biscotti is not just for dipping into your espresso. I’ll take a lovely glass of vin santo with the lingering taste of honey and apricots with a touch of cream. Keep your coffee or espresso (which traditionally comes before vin santo BTW). If you end up at the opening of the collective exhibit for this next Call, have a glass for me. Better yet, bring me a bottle of vin santo back as a souvenir…it beats a t-shirt anytime!

Check out this Call for Entries for the 7th Annual International Arte Laguna Prize for Video or Performance.
