BUTTER not JAM

I cannot bake biscuits of any sort. I have tried and tried, but the result is a pan of white hockey pucks. It is okay not to be good at everything… even if you really want to be. By the way, I cannot paint either. I have tried and tried, but the result is a canvas of muddy mess. Lately, I’ve published a lot of photo calls, and I am starting to feel the guilt of personal bias.

CALL for ENTRIES: Food from C4FAP!

Posted on April 26, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

FOOD glorious FOOD

Some of you think my food obsession is, well, a little over the top. And, a couple of you have suggested that I drop the food references and pictures and just stick to the art deadlines, but on both occasions I have respectfully declined to remove the food from the food-themed art blog. At the end of the day, though, my posts have precious-little to do with food. Today is monumental. Today is the day that Food is both the opening paragraph AND the theme of the Call. It seems only appropriate that one of my wonderful readers should take the Juror’s award for THIS show of all shows. Keep me updated, folks…

CALL for ENTRIES: Axis Gallery Annual Juried

Posted on April 25, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

RECIPE for SUCCESS

Like many of you, I frequently “wing it” in the kitchen. I like the idea of cooking with whatever you have on hand and making adjustments according to taste along the way. However, while editing a recipe card for The Lodge at Buckberry Creek recently, I realized there is a certain comfort in knowing the exact amount of cream and vanilla in bread pudding. There is comfort in not guessing the temperature or constantly checking the oven to see if your concoction is ready. Take comfort in the fact that the Call a well-established show with lots of room for research. Time to create your own recipe…

Posted on April 23, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

SLOW not SNOW

It seems a little surreal to me that the snow that I whined so miserably about has barely melted, and I am already miserably whining about missing my slow cooker stews, soups and ragouts.

CALL for ENTRIES: Through the Looking Glass!

Posted on April 22, 2011April 25, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

MIX IT UP

Remember when the electric kitchen mixer was only a dream? Well, no, I don’t either, but you have at least contemplated what it was like BEFORE we had electrical conveniences. I, personally, don’t think I have the motivation or arm strength to deal with a manual egg beater. But, I have no doubt that someone somewhere thought that an electric hand mixer was a ridiculous, impossible dream. This next Call may test your ability to imagine the future, but I encourage you to be open to the possibilities. Always be an optimist…

Check out this Call for Entries for Through the Looking Glass at Artform Gallery & Tattoo. This is an all-hung show (or at least one piece per artist), and the entry fee is only $5 per piece. Hurry! The deadline is in FIVE days. It is worth a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Through the Looking Glass

From the Artform Gallery website: “We’ve come across some very interesting technology that we believe will change how the world can be interconnected. The technology is in the palm of most peoples hands and they don’t even realize it. Our goal is to present this new form of communication to the world is going be through art, by having a gallery opening May 7th at Artform Gallery and Tattoo.”

“Nothing like this has ever been done before. We are trying to bring public awareness to the use of this technology in our everyday life, and what better way to do it through art. Especially since life imitates art on a daily basis. This is the future and the time to act is now while we are right on the cusp of this technological revolution.”

*Editor’s Note: I encourage you to think about this Call with an open mind. I was very hesitant to publish it because it is vague and unclear; however, after a discussion with the Gallery, I think they are just trying to keep their “secret technology” under wraps until the opening. But to help you a little, there is an ACTUAL show, not just an online show. There is an ACTUAL opening, but you don’t have to send your work… only .jpgs. I have a theory on the technology, and if you email me we can compare theories. I’ve wasted a lot of entry fees, but I think this $5 is worth being a part of the mystery.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All media – Open to all 2 and 3 dimensional art

DEADLINE: Wednesday April 27th, 2011

NOTIFICATION: As long as you follow the rules laid out in the prospectus, at least one piece of your art will be included.

Examples of unacceptable work: no plagiarized art or JPEGs of really bad quality. Artists will be notified by email either way.

ENTRY FEE: The submission fee is $5.00 per entry, up to 3 pieces.

SALES: Artform Gallery and Tattoo will retain a 25% commission on the sale of artwork.

ABOUT THE GALLERY: Artform Gallery & Tattoo was established in September of 2008 and is committed to showing artwork that is excellent and fearless.

CALL for ENTRIES: Phone-o-Graphic

Posted on April 15, 2011May 19, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

FOOD FOR THE EYES

I would love to know what percentage of cell phone pictures are of food. I am willing to bet it is over twenty-five percent…maybe even thirty percent. Thanks to facebook, I am regularly made aware of the gastronomic adventures of hundreds of my friends. Unfortunately, due to the number of my friends that are artists that also read this blog… I must honestly admit that I am among the worst of the offenders. I submit evidence of my guilt by posting this picture to the left of delicious Buckberry Bread Pudding that I took yesterday at The Lodge at Buckberry Creek. And, while I am not suggesting you submit pictures of food, this Call will require use of your cell phone. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Darkroom Gallery called Phone-O-Graphic Arts. Enter your work for as little as $20. Don’t forget Dark Room Gallery offers free framing & matting on accepted entries!

CALL FOR ENTRIES:
Phone-O-Graphic

Likely you’ve got your phone with you at all times, while you’ve forgotten your dSLR or film camera at home. You wouldn’t dare leave your phone at home, would you? It’s liberating, knowing your cell or smartphone can take a picture, anytime, anywhere.

As Photographers, you’ve likely engaged in the heated discussion over the capability, viability, credibility of the camera phone. Purists scoff at the intrusion of a mediocre, fraud of a device, that is marring their photographic religion. And then there are the rest of you, embracing the technology and embracing the all-in-one, multi-media lifestyle of the cellphone-toting imagist, so many of you have become.

JUROR: Dan Burkholder has a long history of looking over the photographic horizon to see, explore and teach the next great thing in imaging. His newest book, iPhone Artistry (Pixiq Press, 2011), is the definitive how-to for creative iPhone photographers. His first book, Making Digital Negatives for Contact Printing (Bladed Iris Press, 1995) became a seminal manual for photographers wanting to blend the power of digital imaging with the charm of the handmade print.

Dan received his B.A. and Master’s degrees from Brooks Institute of Photography, in Santa Barbara, CA. Dan has taught digital imaging workshops for 16 years on three continents and several island countries.

Burkholder’s platinum / palladium and pigmented ink prints are included in private and public collections internationally.

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 on the submission form.

Digital Submissions: All submissions must be made by digital files through:

1. Upload on the Dark Room Gallery website or

2. Sent via email to submissions (at) 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 to 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 May 24, 2011.

RIGHTS: Photographers retain all rights to their work, except for submissions accepted for exhibition: artists grant Dark Room Gallery/Vermont Photo Space the right to use their images to promote the exhibition on the website and for inclusion in an exhibit catalog.

Darkroom Gallery provides free matting and framing of accepted entries for the duration of each of our exhibitions, subject to standard sizes. Photographers set their own prices if they wish to sell their work, and retain all rights.

CALL for ENTRIES: Enacting Queerness

Posted on April 12, 2011April 12, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

SPROUTS ALIVE!

I am reclaiming brussel sprouts for the tasty side. I am tired of hearing them spoken of in the same tone as snot, vomit and boiled okra. Gone are the days of bitter and boiled little cabbage-like veggies that your mother forced you to eat. Celebrate the roasted sprout with rosemary and a squeeze of lemon. Live a little. Actually, live and let live. This next Call is about reclamation and celebration too. Say it with art…

Check out this Call for Entries for Enacting Queerness by The Omni Proje[q]t. There is NO ENTRY FEE, but it will require a bit of a leap of faith on your part. Take a chance!

*Editor’s Note: Unfortunately, a handful of you will unsubscribe from this site because of the content of this post. It makes me sad–not that you’re going, although I hate to see people leave us behind, but because if you are a human that still has issues with the gender and/or sexuality of others, your life must be very small indeed.

CALL for ENTRIES:
Enacting Queerness

Enacting Queerness uplifts ideas, actions, and/or persons that exist out of the norm in terms of their gender and/or sexuality. It celebrates the reclamation of deviant identity as an empowering one. Whether queer identified or not, socially we have been brought to recognize these acts of identity reclamation. This exhibition aims to uplift these revolutionary ways of existing.

DEADLINE: May 15, 2011

CALL for ENTRIES: Naturalist Art Show

Posted on April 8, 2011April 8, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

LONGHORN?

Just the other day, I admitted my food stereotypes about Phoenix. I’ll continue today with Texan food stereotypes. I think steak or Tex-Mex. All things Mexican or Spanish, right? I never thought of chicken fried steak. Chicken fried steak is considered German, a derivative of Wiener Schnitzel, a veal steak deep-fried in a breadcrumb batter. In chicken fried steak, beef scraps are used and beaten into steak form. A milk-based cream gravy is almost always served with chicken fried steak too. Yes, folks…Welcome to Texas. Okay, I did my research on Texas. This next call will require you to do a little Texas research as well before creating your artwork. Take a look…

ORANGE
YOU
GLAD?

While in Phoenix recently, I discovered that our hosts were lucky to have an orange tree in their back yard. Every morning I went out back to the sweet smell of orange blossoms and the overwhelmingly loud buzzing of bees. I am inspired by the smell and sound. I wonder if I can get an orange tree to grow in my Smoky Mountain yard? This next Call is from California — where they have no problem getting orange trees to grow either.

Check out this Call for Entries from Sebastopol Center for the Arts (in California) for Bibliophoria II. The entry fee is a little high for non-members, but you’ve gotta love book shows. Book shows are less common than you think so the risk could be worth it. Take a chance…
