CALL for ENTRIES: 19th Annual Juried

Posted on February 11, 2013February 11, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

CONFESSIONS
of an empty-headed
food trough wiper

The holy grail of culinary education is the Cordon Blue, and more recently, the Culinary Institutes of America. I attended Johnson & Wales for a year and continue to be grateful for all that I learned. I put me on the path to being the food-lover that I am. And honestly, without the foodie side of me, I’m not sure this blog would have made it. It gave me a brand, a platform if you will, to set AAAD apart from all the art deadlines out there. Many feel that museum exhibits are the holy grail of art shows, and this next Call could be your holy grail. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Off the Street

Posted on February 9, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

MUM’S
the word

Yellow mustard is a staple of the Southern refrigerator, but it doesn’t appear in mine. I love mustard, but the older I get the more I appreciate pungent flavors. And well, yellow mustard doesn’t, well, cut the mustard anymore. That’s right, folks, I’m a rebel. You’ll only find Dijon mustard in my house. Don’t tell anyone; they’ll force me to the other side of the Mason-Dixon line if you do. This next Call involves it’s own sort of rebellion. Investigate…

Check out this Call for Entries for Off the Street from ARTs East New York (Brooklyn, NY). There is no entry fee, and the media is NOT limited to installation art, despite the name.

CALL for ENTRIES:
Off the Street

Public.

Rebellious.

Anonymous.

Elusive.

These qualities come with the territory of Street Art. However, a growing trend to display such artwork in gallery spaces necessarily obfuscates these seemingly essential features of the art form.

The upcoming exhibit at ARTs East New York explores a complicated question: What is left of Street Art once it’s taken off the street? Off the Street will feature works that are more than just gallery-ready replications of artwork on the street, but are instead explorations extending the space of the “street” from the physical to the conceptual.

ELIGIBILITY:
Open to all artists

MEDIA:
All media

DEADLINE:
March 1, 2013

NOTIFICATION:
mid March

ENTRY FEE: None

SALES: ARTs East New York will charge a 10% commission fee.

ARTIST RESIDENCY: I-Park 2013

Posted on February 8, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

PASTA
anyone?

Could you host a dinner party for 4 weeks in a row? I’m not sure I could either. Feeding 6-8 people every day for a month has got to be a challenge. I think it would have to involve lots of pasta, casseroles and soups. But, it would be a great excuse to eat comfort food. This next Call will give you 4 weeks away in a creative atmosphere…and group meals. Check it out…

CALL for ENTRIES: Graceful Envelopes

Posted on February 5, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

TWO anchovies
one EGG

One of my most prized possessions is a stolen recipe for Caesar Dressing. A restaurant in Savannah, GA served Caesar salad that was created table side. My mother and I drove 100 miles just to have lunch. After telling many servers over the years of our 100-mile trek, I convinced one to give me the illicit recipe–strictly against their non-disclosure statement. It is fantastic. I keep the recipe, hand-written by the server, in a special place, home only to my inherited family recipes. I could re-type it, but that would be a dishonor to the server that so kindly risked his job for my obsessive palate. This next Call is all about the handwriting. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Washington (DC) Calligraphers Guild and the National Association of Letter Carriers for the 19th annual Graceful Envelope Contest. There is no entry fee, and this could be a great jump-start project. Investigate the guidelines…

Beginning in 2003, the National Association of Letter Carriers agreed to partner with the Washington Calligraphers Guild and exhibit the Adult winners.

In addition to promoting the art of calligraphy, the Graceful Envelope Contest celebrates the role of letters in binding people together and serves as a reminder that the people who deliver the mail are career government employees who take pride in their work and care about the communities they serve.

ELIGIBILITY:
Open to all artists

MEDIA: Each entry must be a stamped envelope, either manufactured or handmade, delivered through the U.S. Postal Service. The envelope will not be opened. Size may not exceed 7×9 inches. Standard #10 business envelopes are also permitted. Some envelope sizes require additional postage.

CALL for ENTRIES: Eutectic

STALE
chicks

I just found out my stove won’t go below 225°. I was preparing to roast chickpeas instead of drying them in my dehydrator. But, I usually slow roast them at 200°. Hmph. Those 25 degrees make a difference. You know what I mean. Haven’t you ever split the difference when you had to bake two things at two different temperatures at the same time? Something usually suffers. I’ve eaten many a soggy crust pizza because of this dilemma. Well this next Call comes from a gallery whose very name involves a melting point reference. Intrigued?

Check out this Call for Entries from Eutectic Gallery (Portland, OR) for ceramic work. The fee is fairly standard, but they take both single artists AND pairs. Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: If you have read the personal portion of this post, CALL for ENTRIES: Eutectic, anywhere other than by email subscription or on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com, it has been published without permission and is considered theft.

CALL for ENTRIES:
Eutectic

Eu・tec・tic – [yoo-tek-tik] adj.: The proportion of constituents in a mixture that yields the lowest possible complete melting point; often lower than the constituents on their own.

Similar to the relationship between the components that make up clay and their proportions, Eutectic Gallery wishes to explore the relationship between an artist’s process, product, & concept, and the public’s interpretation of, interaction with, and critique of said work.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Ceramic

DEADLINE: February 8 for the April exhibit (don’t worry…you can submit online) and March 8 for the May exhibit

I’m not a huge fan of buffet restaurants. I understand why people hosting large parties prefer buffets, but I choose NOT to go to buffet restaurants because I prefer not to be surrounded by people. And, not all food should be held at the same temp. I don’t like being part of the herd. Luckily, this next Call is about art and not food because it is a bit like a buffet style show. As I mentioned, sometimes it just works. Investigate…

Check out this Call for Entries from the new Roman Susan Gallery (Chicago, IL) for Surrounded Salon. I LOVE salon-style–the sensory overload of floor to ceiling work and disparate styles and techniques hanging side by side. Give it a try…

PEARLS
of wisdom

I have a long-standing addiction to pasta. More accurately, I am addicted to that slightly drowsy, completely relaxed feeling I have when I finish a beautiful Italian meal. My friends have been trying to get me to read Wheat Belly, but I’ve resisted for fear that I would end up having to give up my favorite pasta, whole wheat couscous. I cannot bear the thought. So, this next Call comes from San Francisco which has nothing to do with couscous, but the last time I made a Rice-A-Roni segue, I got email for weeks. So, my stream of consciousness led me to couscous. I know, random. Regardless, don’t miss this next Call…

CALL for ENTRIES: Mayhem

Posted on February 1, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

THE POPCORN
fiasco

I recently reclaimed my kitchen. Lately, the time I spend outside of my home office, art and music studios is greatly reduced, and now I handle almost ALL of the cooking again. I’m loving it, but I have become SO territorial. My husband can make popcorn, and it looks like someone has been killing zombies. And why, pray tell, if the dishwasher is empty can the dirty dishes not go there instead of on the counter? Deep breaths; I digress. This next Call is all about Mayhem; Send them your best…

CALL for ENTRIES: Skin

WATER, WATER
everywhere

I’ve never cared for drinking water. I know, I know. Shame and guilt. I drink unsweetened decaffeinated iced tea by the gallon. But somewhere along the way I noticed a few wrinkles and sags in my face. Shortly thereafter I tripped across an article extolling the wonders that drinking water promises for your skin. It was hard, but I stuck with it hoping for miraculous results. Now I regularly crave water in addition to all the tea that I still drink. Of course, it made no noticeable difference in my skin, but it IS proof that I am not immune to the vanity that rears its ugly head as we age. This next Call is all about skin. I love this theme…

JUROR: Cy DeCosse graduated from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design in 1952. In 1954 he won a Fulbright scholarship to Italy to study graphic arts. It was while studying with Renzo Maggini at the Instituto d‘Arte, Firenze, that DeCosse received his only formal photographic training.

Upon returning to Minnesota, DeCosse resumed his career in advertising, becoming an art director and later a Vice President of Campbell-Mithun Advertising.

DeCosse has shown his exquisite alternative process prints around the world for decades, and has been represented in galleries including The Weinstein Gallery, Verve Gallery, Iris, and the John Stevenson Gallery, among others.

Working closely with his printer Keith Taylor, Cy DeCosse uses alternative processes to his full advantage, gaining a subtlety and richness of image that simply would not be achievable through more modern methods.

SALES: Brass & Bellows will retain 20% commission.
