disasters

When I was in second grade, we lived in Little Rock, Arkansas for 18 weeks.  My dad was on loan from Lockheed Georgia to Falcon Jet as an aircraft inspector.  And during that 18 weeks, we say 108° temperatures, 18″ of snow AND a 3′ flood.  No joking.  Snow meant I got to go the movie theater and eat leftover popcorn.  The flood meant I got to stay home with my dad in our apartment on the 2nd floor and eat LOTS of hotdogs and popcorn.  I made myself sick with Cheese Dogs and made-for-TV movies.  Wouldn’t it be nice if all natural disasters could  be seen through ONLY through the eyes of child?  For all those kids that had to see Hurricane Sandy in a far uglier light, this contest is one of many great ways we can all help.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for the Manhattan Perceived event to be held at the UN Headquarters (Manhattan, NY).  There is no entry fee and a possible $10,000 prize.  This is a great opportunity AND a great cause…

sardines

Have you ever lost your taste for something?  I used to absolutely love sardines as a kid.  My grandmother would make my uncle Darryl and I sit on the back step outside the back door of the kitchen to eat them.  But, over the years, I fell out of love with them.  I don’t hate them.  I remember the buttery melt-in-your-mouth texture contrasted with the crunchy saltiness of the Saltines, their constant companion.  Maybe it is time to find a can of my old friend sardines again.  This next Call is all about lost & found.  Don’t miss this opportunity…

Lost & Found

 

To happen upon something
forgotten, forsaken; to find
what was once lost.

Photography eliciting scenes or subjects that meant something to someone long ago or in the recent past.  Foraging in a far away land, or even in your own backyard and uncovering the unexpected. We are looking for photographs that embody this murky realm of faded glory; haunting happenstance, and beauty found in the details dropped by a stranger on the street. Capture those ancient treasures tucked away from plain sight; the handiwork of a craftsman now far away, but re-imagined, and re-discovered by your lens.

Learn more about the Darkroom Gallery online!In light of recent events, we are all feeling a communal sense of loss.  We see that, like material things, people can be lost, sometimes tragically.  They can be misplaced, or forgotten–lost souls, the invisible humans in our midst.  Bring these subjects into the light, show the Darkroom Gallery what was lost and you have found.

mania

It is snowing like crazy at my house right now, and I promise you that the grocery store is crowded with people shopping as though it is the last food they will ever buy.  There is something about the peaceful quilt of snowfall that brings out the animal instinct regarding food.  My favorite is when people stock up on microwaveable food that they won’t be able to cook if there is no electricity.  What would these folks think if they could see themselves in the mirror?  This next call is a “momentary mirror” of sorts.  Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Archetype Drift

 

Photography can be a painful mirror.  Because of its illustrative tendencies and mnemonic capacities, photography enables us to tell the stories we want to tell with a hammer that is the frame. What happens when the medium gets in the way of the most important narratives?

Photography can be a seductive enabler that, at its worst, allows us to fetishize, beautify, and conduct shallow investigations. Meanwhile, paradigmatic changes in history and culture metastasize alongside new technological ways to make, edit, and distribute images. Are photographers pushing envelopes of meaning and relevance? Are they even keeping pace?

Powerhouse Gym by Brian UlrichWith the ubiquity of images high and low, how does an image-maker create cultural value in 2013? Archetype Drift is a call for new methods of photographic making, editing, and presentation.  It is a call for risk taking, chance operations, relabeling, and letting go of the comfortable.  It is in itself an experiment and a (momentary) mirror.

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists

MEDIA:  All types of photographic and lens-based work will be considered, including video and GIFs.

DEADLINE:  February 4, 2013

NOTIFICATION:  Mid-February

The biology of food and nutrition both terrifies and thrills me.  I am scared that non-genetically-modified corn is virtually non-existent.  I can’t just avoid corn; it is IN EVERYTHING.  But I also believe in the healing power of eating the right foods and avoiding the wrong foods.  I love meat and cheese, but I also know the benefits, first hand, of lowering or eliminating them in your diet (watch the movie Forks over Knives if you’re interested).  This next call wants your take on the art of biology–not necessarily related to food, of course.  Take a look…

I vividly remember the first piece of pizza I ate.  It was Totino’s (no, they aren’t a sponsor, but they should be).  I thought it was the best thing I ever ate.  I was around 4 years old.  I still think the little cubes of pepperoni are ingenious, and I still turn to this junk food classic when I am sick.  I realize it isn’t logical to crave junk food when you’re ill, but I do.  Yes, I know this runs contrary to my whole foods mantra. Deal with it; I’m only  human.  Sometime there is nothing like a first.  I’ve eaten a lot of gourmet pizza since then, but I still have the sweetest memories of the first.  This next Call is an opportunity for you to be among this site’s first artists.  Take a look…

From beloved pets to exotic wildlife, animals hold a certain fascination for photographers. They serve us as faithful guardians, trusted steeds, and loyal family members. We invoke them to highlight human traits both good and bad, but also search for our humanity within them.

Photographing both the tame and the wild, we seek kinship that cannot be communicated with words. Whether as taxidermy for study, pets for companionship, or out in the wild, for Creatures, the Kiernan Gallery seeks photographs that depict our complex relationship with the animal kingdom.
