You never know how precious something is until you can’t find it again. I once at the most phenomenal star fruit. It tasted like nothing else I have ever experienced, but every one I’ve tried since then is just a bland, waxy fruit best suited for garnish.

CALL for ENTRIES: 2011 Annual Juried Show

Posted on October 4, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

CAKE FOR EVERYONE

Aside from food, there are a few themes that run through my blog posts. Entering academic shows can be a huge plus for all artists…but I find that emerging artists, regardless of age, really benefit most. If you get juried in to an academic exhibition, make every effort to attend the opening. You’d be amazed by how much you can learn by being a fly on the wall when no one knows you’re there. And remember, sometimes you can have your cake and eat it too…academic settings are great for art sales.

“When looking back at my images, I was amazed at how many of them contained spheres and circles. It was not intentional. It just happened. The circles and spheres were sometimes the center of interest in the image, but often they played more of a subtle supporting role or were maybe just implied. And then there is my series of round images made with a fisheye……”

Circles and spheres are an integral part of our lives. From the wheels on our cars to the cup you pour your morning coffee into, circles appear everywhere. So, look around you right now. How many circles or spheres do you see?

JUROR: Carla Ellard will be the juror of “Spherical”.

Editor’s Note: I know, I know. I can smell the paranoid, suspicious email headed my way about how I shouldn’t promote Calls from newbies. Bottom line…we all start somewhere. They are building a blog and finding a few fans on facebook too.

This blog is only a year old. If everyone had been suspicious, I wouldn’t have a few hundred of you mixed nuts reading these posts everyday. Then where would we all be (she says with an exaggerated sense of self-importance)? Have a little faith, folks. When you expect the best…you very often get it.

CALL for ENTRIES: Urban & Country Landscape

Posted on September 27, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

…AND THE CHEESE
STANDS ALONE

My family enjoys joking… that if I continue moving to towns with smaller and smaller populations that I will eventally live in complete isolation except, of course, for my husband, internet access, food delivery, my dogs and a separate home for my shoe collection. Funny, eh? There is something to be said for both urban AND country living. I love them both, but buying fresh eggs and goat milk from a farm on my way home has skewed my objectivity just a smidge.

I cannot wait to see the results of the Call for Entries for The Urban and Country Landscape Annual Book from The Worldwide Photography Gala Awards. It is a type of art publication–which you know I love, and part published exhibit. There is no entry fee unless you are accepted.

Together with the notification’s email a brief structured feedback will be provided.

Second screening: Selection will be done by Julio Hardy, WPGA’s Managing Director. Accepted images in the first screening will be included in the second screening and entered in the competition. Those works which passed the first screening will be exhibited for one year in the online WonderPick gallery, and available for sale.

During the second screening, 80 images will be selected to be featured in The Urban and Country Landscape Annual Book – Nature and People, Life and Culture.

WEARING WAFFLES

I am a wierdo, admittedly. I am obsessed with food. I don’t drink coffee. I rarely wear pants. I won’t do much that can’t be done in four inch heels, and I don’t like prints…unless they are geometric. Oh yeah, that is just the tip of the weirdness iceberg.

2) Upload images (separate upload for each image) here:
http://lacda.com/UploadPage/forms/form1.html

Gallery Statement: “Every year for 50 years the L.A. Municipal Gallery has held its ‘Open Call’ exhibit where any artist can show up with their art and an entry fee (to benefit gallery programs) and the piece is shown.

“The Los Angeles Center For Digital Art decided to launch an international experiment of the same nature where the artists upload images that are printed and hung by the gallery. The hundreds of works are displayed in a grid like installation (reminiscent of postcard art shows of the 1980’s) where every work submitted is exhibited.

“The usual (less than democratic) selection process where only the precious few are chosen is turned on its head in a curatorial anarchy where everyone gets to participate and the viewer is literally left to be the judge. The show represents a snapshot of a current moment in art history when digital imaging has reached the hands of the many, an age where culture belongs to the ‘mobblogers’ around the globe.

“From Thailand to Texas, amateur to academic, beautiful to banal and beyond the monumental quantity and variety of “Snap to Grid” becomes an aesthetic experience where each individual piece adds to an agglomerative effect that has a life of its own.”

CALL for ENTRIES: The Spice of Light

Posted on September 25, 2010September 25, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

FLOURESCENT
RUBBER CHICKEN

I have spent the last two days in a ballroom in Northwest Tennessee at a corporate conference. As you might imagine, the rubber chicken served at ALL of the conferences was not the highlight of my culinary experience. However, I am most surprised that what I missed. More than anything, I missed the sunlight on my face. Flourescent lighting is not your friend. Every chance I could find between seminars I stood in the sun.

Imagine my delight to find this great Call for Entries from Vermont Photo Space Gallery called The Spice of Light celebrates the beauty of nature, specifically light, that we find the essence of our souls. As a phenomenal bonus Vermont Photo Space Gallery, this gallery offers free matting and framing. Take a look…

CALL FOR ENTRIES: The Spice of Light

Fine art nature photographers create emotions, feelings and memories. Sometimes Mother Nature gives you the perfect light, the perfect composition, the perfect colors, and you are able to present your experience exactly as the lens captured it.

Unfortunately, most of the time…she doesn’t. This doesn’t lessen the excitement, the drama, you experienced at the moment of capture. At times like this, you have to go deep within yourself to discover the colors, lines, and shapes that not only express what you experienced, but also transfer that emotion to the viewer.

Color: the Spice of Light is your opportunity to express nature in a manner that doesn’t necessarily express reality, but does express your feelings and experience at the moment of capture. And, by all means, if nature gave you that “perfect moment”, then submit that moment! The Juror wants to see drama through the use of composition, color and light….an image that makes the viewer want to stop and spend time with your creation….an image that makes the viewer FEEL! Remember, it’s within the beauty of nature that we find the essence of our souls.

JUROR: Bruce K. Haley, Jr. uses the camera lens as his paint brush. His bold and colorful presentation of nature has made his work much sought after throughout the United States.

Since November of 2002, Haley’s award-winning art has appeared in over one-hundred exhibitions in West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Colorado, North Carolina Michigan, and California. His work is included in many corporate and private collections including six pieces purchased by the state of West Virginia for their permanent art collection.

In Bruce’s words, “Photography isn’t about f/stops, shutter speeds or equipment. it’s about living, feeling, seeing. It’s about opening my mind to learning, not only about the people, places and things around me, but also, about me. Photography, for me, is life living, life giving.”

RULES FOR PHOTO SUBMISSIONS:

Age: Entrants must be at least 18 years old. If younger. a parent or legal guardian may make the submission for you.

Ownership: All submitted photos must have been taken by the photographer making the entry. If you are a parent or legal guardian submitting for a minor, please make it clear.

2. Sent via email to submissions@VermontPhotoSpace.com. This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it along with an application form. There is a $5.00 surcharge for email entries.

3. Images should be as large as possible but no larger than 1280 pixels on the longest side, type jpg – set to the highest quality. DPI can be set to any number, but if you must specify something go with 72 dpi.

FEES: Up to three images may be submitted for a fee of $20 US for on-line submission and $25 for email submission. Additional images may be submitted for an additional $5 US per image.

DEADLINE: Images and payment must be received by midnight EST on the submission closing date October 28, 2010.

CALL for ENTRIES: I Am Solitary…Again

Posted on September 24, 2010November 15, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

COOK ALREADY!

I write a lot about the recipe for success, about using the best ingredients, about never over-cooking. I don’t like to talk about the burnt bread of it all. But the truth is that even when you follow the recipe, sometimes the souflee just doesn’t rise. You can’t take it personally; you just have to get back in the kitchen.

I entered the original Beers Lambert I Am Solitary call posted on this site…and my souflee didn’t rise. However, I am going back to the kitchen, and I invite you to do the same. Check out this Call for Entries for I Am Solitary – London that is a counterpart to the original. Join me in applying for what promises to be a phenomenal show at the Gift gallery.

Call for Submissions:
I Am Solitary – London

Beers.Lambert Contemporary Art is proud to curate an exhibition for Gift Gallery, at its extraordinary location on London’s primary gallery row, Vyner Street.

I Am Solitary – London, is a counterpart and extension of the related Beers Lambert exhibition that took place in Nottingham, in September of 2010.

This collaboration with Gift Gallery seeks progressive contemporary art that responds to questions of identity and individuality.

The exhibition aims to highlight ideas and articulations relating to a conceptual and aesthetic understanding of individuality, isolation, and identity in a world typified by conflict, disillusionment, and change.

The work submitted should critically & aesthetically challenge the reception of these themes & truly push the direction of contemporary art.*

*For those of my readers that like to skim the posts, please note that I put this sentence in bold…green…AND centered it for you…hint, hint.

Submission Deadline:
Sunday, November 14, 2010

Eligibility & Media: Artists at all career stages, from all parts of the world, working in all mediums and practices are encouraged to submit.

Vyner street haslong been the benchmark of excellence in London’s contemporary art sphere; prominently located at 10 Vyner, Gift gallery continues this tradiiton of featuring emergent and progressive contemporary art.
