CALL for ENTRIES: Nat’l Juried 2012

Posted on October 16, 2012October 16, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

HOME GROWN

I believe in buying locally grown food. I’d like to say my motivating factor is green; however, truth-be-told, it just tastes better. Something that travels 50 miles to my table is just going to be fresher than something that travels 500 or even 5000 miles to my table. This next Call is local FOR ME, but it is a great opportunity for some of you as well…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Arts & Culture Alliance for the National Juried Exhibition of 2012. This is a great show run by a great organization. I’ve shown here several times. Take a look…

CALL for SUBMISSIONS: 4AV

Posted on October 15, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

HOLD THE PLASTIC
please

I suspect you already know I’ve got a little touch of the obsessive compulsive. But some days, it really rears its head. My family is trying to be greener, generally speaking, and I find it actually can be cheaper to live this way if you are careful. My newest pet peeve is people who buy one item in the produce section and feel the overwhelming need to put it in a plastic bag. You’re going to wash it and/or peel it anyway right? Why does your single lemon / lime / onion / avocado need a bag? Who designed this system. I digress. This next Call really wants the BEST in design. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Submissions from 4AV for silkscreen designs for a line of women’s graphic tees. If your design wins, you walk away with some cash as well as reproduction rights after the first printing. Investigate…

CALL for ENTRIES: Illumination of Imagination

Posted on October 13, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

TEA FOR ONE
coffee for none

My husband is a tea drinker, and it is my fault. So, I don’t like the smell of brewed coffee. (I hear the nasty emails being pecked out on keyboards across the world.) I haven’t drank a cup of coffee in 18+ years. I think brewed coffee smells like skunk spray. No joke. So for a long time, my husband used a French press because the odor was lessened. But then the plunger on the press broke, and neither of us ordered a new one. Now, he drinks Earl Grey every morning. I feel a little bad. (Not really.) Hobbits like tea, or so we are led to believe. You figure out how that is connected to this next Call by investigating for yourself…

Check out this Call for Entries from Six Summit Gallery (Ivoryton, CT) for Illumination of Imagination! The entry fee can be as low as $10. This could be a great opportunity for you to sell art AND the juror is very well documented. Take a look…

REMINDER: Open Call in Monterey

Posted on October 11, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

OH MY DARLIN’

It is clementine season. Every year around this time, clementines start popping up in the grocery store, and every year I muse over the fact that they seem more like summer fruit than winter.

CALL for ENTRIES: Emotion

Posted on October 10, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

CHEESY
love

I am emotionally attached to goat cheese. I recognize how very irrational that is, but the fact remains that “I love goat cheese.” I dream about it. Eating herb-crusted goat cheese on freshly-backed foccacia with a few capers is the height of emotional eating for me. It can take away almost ANY bad day. No joke. Luckily, my bad days are not too frequent, ha. This next Call wants to know about your Emotional quirks. Don’t miss this chance…

Check out this Call to Artists for Emotion from the Linus Galleries (California). The exhibit offers an online listing as well as the possibility for a showing in one of their brick and mortar galleries. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Cake

Posted on October 8, 2012October 8, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

SWEET
STUFF!

I eat more cake than I’d like to admit. In my household, it is most often in the form of cupcakes. It is not because I prefer the taste or portion control of cupcakes. But I find that cupcakes are easier to freeze and store. Did you know that freezing cake (or cupcakes) before they have completely cooled traps some of the moisture in the cake? It also makes them easier to cut or decorate. This next Call will test the depth of your taste for the sweet stuff. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Shoe Factory Art Co-op (Rochester, NY) for Let them Eat Cake at Starry Nites Café. Don’t discount the sales and exposure available is a retail gallery setting! Take a chance…

CALL for ENTRIES: Phone-Ography

Posted on October 5, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

FOUR-ALARM
dinner

I used to live 12″ from a firehouse in Downtown Charleston. The kitchen shared a wall with the firehouse. If there was an alarm while I was cooking dinner, I had to hang on to the pots on the stove and the glasses on the counter to prevent crashes. The gallery sponsoring this next Call has had a much better experience with firehouses. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Firehouse Art Center (Longmont, CO) for Phone-Ography. You know you have lots of cell phone pics to show. The entry fee is reasonable, and this could be a great opportunity…

CALL for ENTRIES: In Transit

Posted on September 28, 2012September 28, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

PARTNERS
in the
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…

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

CALL for ENTRIES:
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.

DEADLINE: October 26, 2012

NOTIFICATION: Artists will be notified of accepted work via email approximately eight days after the submission deadline.

ENTRY FEE: 5 for $25, each add’l $5

JUROR: Jock Montgomery has worked as a professional guide and expedition leader – and of course as a photographer – in some of the most beautiful spots in the world. Straight out of college, Jock moved to Nepal to train raft guides and lead trekking, river running and mountain biking trips in Nepal, Tibet, India and Bhutan. He has taken more than 70 groups on a variety of trips in the Himalayas, as well as co-lead numerous kayaking expeditions with first descents in Nepal, Bhutan and India.

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.

AWARDS: For this exhibition, juror Jock Montgomery will select up to 30 images for display in the main gallery, and up to an additional 40 to be included in the online gallery. All images will be reproduced in an exhibition catalogue available for purchase. A Juror’s Choice and Director’s Choice will also be announced.

SALES: Artists exhibiting at the gallery may offer their work for sale. The Kiernan Gallery retains 30% of the sale price as commission.

CALL for ENTRIES: Balance

Posted on September 27, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

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…

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

CALL for ENTRIES:
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

NOTIFICATION: October 26, 2012

ENTRY FEE: $40 for up to 5 images, $10 for each additional image entered

JURORS: Jeffrey Leder, Gallery Director and Orestes Gonzalez, Photographer/Architect

SALES: There is a 50% gallery commission for work sold. Jeffrey Leder Gallery cannot be responsible for damage or loss during transit, but does insure the work once recieved by JLG. By submitting work to the call for entries you agree to all terms and conditions set forth in the entry form.
