SUBLIME

The transition from Summer to Fall foods in the South is an odd muddle of unlikely cohorts.  If I hit the farmers market at the right time of year, I can get beautiful lettuce and huge heirloom tomatoes while I am picking out my pumpkin for carving.  You’ve gotta love a long growing season; it seems like every veggie gets a second chance to produce.  This next Call is all about transit of people and things with places to be and people to see.  Investigate…

Check out this Call for Entries for In Transit from the Kiernan Gallery (Lexington, Virginia).  The entry is very reasonable, and the juror is well-documented.  Take a look…

In Transit

 

Whether by road, sea, rail, air, or other means, vehicles are both essential and ubiquitous in our daily lives. Photographers have documented transportation history, as NASA launched rockets, Ford assembled cars, and the Wright brothers took flight. As modes of transportation, photographers observe the intersections of cultures on public transit and the isolation of solitary commuters on the highway. Modes of transit spawn communities, and photographers have documented biker gangs and houseboats.

Journeys are photographed out of windows of speeding vehicles; blurred, voyeuristic, and fleeting. The vehicles themselves are cultural icons and status symbols: sailboats, muscle cars, Harley-Davidsons, and fixed gear bicycles. For In Transit, The Kiernan Gallery seeks images from and of the vehicles that move us.

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists

MEDIA:  All photographic media are encouraged.

After 12 amazing years in Katmandu, Jock is now based in Bangkok, Thailand, with his French wife and co-explorateur Annie Miniscloux where he is in demand as a commercial and editorial assignment photographer.  He was the sole photographer for Menam Chao Phraya, River of Life and Legend, a 252-page coffee-table book about Thailand’s principal waterway.  He speaks Nepali fluently and is conversant in Thai.

CALL for ENTRIES: Balance

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!LIME to ME

I have become more keenly aware of balance of flavors as my taste buds mature.  Once upon a time, barbeque pizza was a treat on its own.  Now, it requires cilantro and a squeeze of lime–a touch of acid to cut the ooey gooey-ness of it all. Is it that my taste is evolving, or am a just more easily bored by food?  This next Call is all about your view of balance.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for Balance from the Jeffrey Leder Gallery (NYC, NY). The price per image is reasonable, and this just the NYC opportunity a few of you have been seeking. Don’t miss this chance…

Balance

 “What I dream of is an art of balance” – Henri Matisse

 

Balance in art is the arrangement of elements so no one part overpowers the other, or seems heavier than the other.

There are three different perspectives on balance: symmetrical balance – stable and formal.  Asymmetrical balance – non-stable and dramatic. Radial balance – alludes to movement. How do you utilize balance in your art?  If selected you will be a part of an exciting group exhibit in New York City.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All media submitted must be no larger than 36″ in any direction.

DEADLINE: October 24, 2012

I want to collect menus.  Some of them are simply stunning.  The effort put into the perfect design and print simply amazes me.  But, then I catch an episode of Hoarding: Buried Alive, and I think, “I’ll just come eat here more often and admire the menu.”  If you’re gonna collect, make it count.  The home of this next Call would be a great place to start collecting.  Take a look…

Do you know that one of the most popular foods in London is curry? Mmmhmm.  Not bangers-n-mash or blood pudding or spotted dick.  Those are just the stereotypes.  And although fish ‘n’ chips are still the traditional national food, make room for curry in every variety.  You can see for yourself at the opening for this next Call.  Take a look…

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.”

Let’s talk about frozen corn.  I have heard all the arguments about frozen vegetable being the next best thing to fresh.  But what I want to know, is WHY would any restaurant serve frozen corn on the cob during the time when in-season fresh corn is cheaper than frozen?  Are we really too lazy to shuck corn, folks?  Really?  Please don’t be too lazy to enter this show from a state that knows a lot about corn.  Take a look…

cross the road?

The best part of hitting the open road is, of course, the FOOD.  My practice is to spend a little time surveying the locals of where we are about the best place to eat.  Inevitably, I get a significant number of people that refer me to the same place.  And it always ends up being “the best breakfast” or “the best burger” in town.  Getting eggs right isn’t easy, folks, and I always appreciate a good reference.  This next Call is all about hitting the road.  Investigate for yourself…

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….

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?

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…

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!
