CALL for ENTRIES: humor; analog humor

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

HAHAHAHA…

Humor is always appreciated. I stand accused of being naively optimistic. If that is true, it is because I live with a smile on my face. My husband and son think I’m funny–biggest compliment EVER. I appreciate humor in food as well. Bill & Clair Wurtzel’s Funny Food is such a great approach to healthy breakfast. I unabashedly recommend it. This next Call is all about tickling your funny bone. I unabashedly recommend it too…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Department of Art & Design of East Tennessee State University at the Tipton Gallery (Johnson City, TN) for humor; analog humor. There is no entry fee, and this is one of those opportunities to renew your love of art merely for the sake of creating it…

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

CALL for ENTRIES:
humor; analog humor

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

THEME: Humor and art have been infrequent partners at best. With both a philosophical interest in the nature of humor and its relationship to aesthetics, this exhibition invites artworks that may utilize a conceptual approach and are actually funny, occupying this middle ground between art and humor in ways that might be thought-provoking, absurd, or even just silly.

MEDIA: all work must be funny. if you make the curator laugh, chuckle, wryly smile, or have a genuine humorous reaction, then it’s included. If not, it’s not. Don’t worry: the curator has a very wide ranging sense of humor. except when it comes to Woody Allen movies which, for some reason, he just doesn’t get.

All work must be in analog form, nothing digital will be accepted; suggested analog forms include, but are not limited to: index cards, single sheets of paper, cassette tapes, small sculpture, airmail envelopes, 35mm slides, canned goods, Morse code and anything else that you might think of. But it must be analog. No zeros and ones.

All of the work must be small. Maximum size–one cubic foot (not one cubit foot). Minimum size–head of a pin.

All work must be signed. This also means that all work can be catalogued, so dates, dimensions, material, etc. must be either included separately with the entry or readily discernible. An online catalog of every object submitted will be published.

All work must be environmentally disposable. You can retrieve your work at the end of the show, or pay to have it shipped back, but it is expected that the vast majority of work will be trashed on the last day. They will provide the trash bags.

DEADLINE: My guess is sometime early to mid September since the work must arrive by the end of September.

ENTRY FEE: None

CURATOR: Dr. Scott Contreras-Koterbay, associate professor, (Ph.D., St. Andrew’s University) specializes in Philosophy of Art and Contemporary Art. He also teaches Modern Art, Art History, Theory and Criticism, Research Methods for Art Historians, Special Topics: African-American Art and Russian Art.

HOW TO ENTER: Email scottkoterbay@gmail.com

CALL for ENTRIES:
Still Life

From Dutch masters’ paintings to contemporary photography, the still life has played an important role in art history. This genre grants the artist complete control over their subjects, allowing unparalleled ability to select details and manipulate the scene.

Still lifes often employ symbolism, where the objects assume their own character and identity. An entire story can be told with the arrangement of a few items; toys, dolls, and household goods become surrogates, and natural life is given a persona. For Still Life: The Art of Arrangement, The Kiernan Gallery seeks evocative and symbolic still life images.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All photographic media are encouraged.

DEADLINE: August 20, 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

He regularly attends portfolio review events and photography art fairs both nationally and internationally, has juried group exhibitions, and has lectured at regional and national art colleges and universities.

Landry received an MFA in Visual Arts from The Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University and a BFA in Photography from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design. He and his wife Anne are avid photography collectors and he is a Corporator on the Board of Directors for the Griffin Museum of Photography.

AWARDS: For this exhibition, juror Jason Landry 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.

CALL for ENTRIES: Mona Lisa

Posted on July 29, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

…and a
devilish grin

I have so many guilty food pleasures. One of my favorites is provolone wrapped in prosciutto, stuffed in a pickled cherry pepper and marinated in olive oil. Cheese and salty pork in a fiery pepper, soaked in oil. Sounds healthy, eh? Not. But my delightfully clever husband comes home with a half-dozen occasionally. I look at them disapprovingly, and he always says with a devilish grin, “I’m sorry, are we behaving this week? I didn’t know.” I love that grin. This next Call is an ode to a different devilish grin all toghether. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: New Images

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

NEW DAY,
new taters

Does it feel like you eat the same thing day after day. Me too, somedays. To break things up at my house, we challenge ourselves. Last month it was a huge increase in veggies with a concentration of stuff we never buy–like spaghetti squash and kale. This month, it is a reduction of dairy and meat. It isn’t necessarily about the benefit of a particular change so much as the results of having to think about food differently. We end up eating crazy concoctions that we might never have otherwise tried. This next Call has an open theme, but it has to be new (as of January 2011). Time to make a change, folks…
