and bleu

I’ve been craving crêpes with fresh strawberries and vanilla creme for a week.  As much as I love French food, my patience for cooking is limited these days, and crêpe-making challenges the patience of most.  But, since strawberries that actually smell like strawberries are starting to show up at the market, I am going to try to distract my crêpe-craving taste buds with fresh strawberries.  Wish me luck.  In the meantime, I imagine the jurors for this next show are casually eating crepes during the curation of this show.  Take a look…

One of my favorite places on the planet is my local apple orchard. The landscape is made of meandering rows of trees as far as the eye can see in each direction.

We’re only a few weeks out from the Kentucky Derby.  And while I am not an avid follower of horse racing, I’ll take any excuse to eat Derby Pie.  Kentucky is famous for originating a lot of foods, actually.  The Hot Brown and Mutton BBQ are just a tiny corner of the paddock.  This next Call is from Paducah (Kentucky), a 3 hours drive from Louisville (the home of the Derby), but I’m betting I can still get Derby Pie there.  Don’t miss this great show opportunity…

CALL for ENTRIES: Inside Out

rodent on the side

In a former life, I worked as a sous chef on a charter sailboat in the Carribean for a peg-legged captain with a Sharpie parrot tattoo on his head.  It is all strangely true. That WAS my official job title…the rest too.  What I really did was spoon homemade chicken salad into avocado halves.  I served it to wealthy day trippers along with a cross-hatched mango half turned inside out, known as a hedgehog.  Sous chef? Semantics I say.  This next Call wants your version of inside out, but I’m thinking they aren’t looking for mango hedgehogs.  That’s just a theory, but you should investigate for yourself…

Can we dine outdoors again yet?  There is just something about having the sun beating down on your back while eating my favorite picnic food–grilled veggies with goat cheese and a drizzle of balsamic reduction.  But, it’s a no go for another week or two I suspect.  It’s no fun if I have to wear a sweater.  This next Call is all about the outdoors as well, but don’t assume it is just a sculpture Call.  Remember to stretch your skills…

I am running out of time to find a place to plant a garden.  When I moved to a smaller home while we searched for a new home or property to build on, I knew I wouldn’t be able to plant here.  So, I may have to resort to a window garden and a few containers this year.  I could live with mostly herbs and lettuce as long a my husband could coax tomatoes out of the containers.  Tomatoes hate me; don’t ask.  Vegetables are my interpretation of a garden. This next Call wants your interpretation of a garden.  Don’t dismiss this one without investigating…

Grocery shopping is often a small world experience for me.  I’ll be thinking of having teriyaki wings, and my husband will come home with the chicken.  Or, I’ll be dreaming of pineapple-infused rice for my salmon, and my stop at the grocery store with produce a beautifully ripe pineapple that just happens to be on sale.  I’m just lucky that way, I suppose.  Just the other day, I was thinking of a couple of pieces I saw in someone’s personal art collection, and what do you know–the juror pops up in this call.  It’s a small world…

Seafood usually conjures the image of a beach-front town for most, but I always think of Savannah, Georgia.  I’m not crazy about sand, so I’d spend my lunchtime at the River House over a bowl of lobster & crab bisque over a sandy crab boil at the beach any day.  Going to the opening of this next Call would be the perfect excuse to put away some seafood.  Take a look…

RE: Tale

Everybody has a story to tell. We are constantly creating tales in our heads. They might be our own doing, they might be partially vicarious or perhaps completely borrowed. These accounts often get restructured and retold, evolving each time. This is not unlike contemporary art, which by nature constantly strives for reinterpretation.

Fitting the concept of something that is partially untrue in a gallery called “Non-Fiction” seems to be ill-fitting. However, borrowing from the gallery’s vision statement, everybody’s tales, whether personal or fictitious, “inspire life-changing dialogue.” After all, Aesop never needed a true story to communicate his vision.

In today’s contemporary art scene, artists have deconstructed the idea of a story to fit their medium and surface preferences. This juried exhibition strives to showcase the breadth of interpretations of the concept of “visual storytelling.”
