CALL for ENTRIES: Wine Label Contest

Posted on October 9, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

HAILING
a cab

I would hurt someone for a pepper-crusted cut of ahi right now. Understand, ahi is not a common food in my house. I’m too cheap, and Gatlinburg isn’t really known for more exotic varieties of fish. But some days you wake up and you just want what you want. You know what would be even better? A big glass of Cabernet Sauvignon to go with the ahi tuna. Okay, the Cab I can pull off pretty easily. This next Call gives you a perfect reason to sample a little Cabernet Sauvignon as well. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from RARE Hospitality International, Inc. dba Capital Grille for the Artist Series Wine Label Contest. The Grand Prize includes a fantastic trip, and of course, artistic immortality on a wine label. You have LESS than a week left to enter, so don’t delay…

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…

CALL for ENTRIES: LBIF Small Works

Posted on October 7, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

LESS please

You know I love tiny foods. We’ve talked about micro greens, baby vegetables and amuse bouche more times than I can count; however, sometimes a smaller size is just practical. I am addicted to spaghetti squash, and I am constantly on the hunt for the smallest one I can find. How much food a spaghetti squash produces is just crazy. This next Call is all about size…regardless of the reason. Take a look…

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…

CALL for ENTRIES: 9×12 in 2012

Posted on October 3, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

LAZY NIGHTS

I had salmon “en papillote” tonight. Fear not, it just means “in parchment”. Contrary to what you might think, it is not the French-cool-factor that leads me down the path of parchment cooking. (Okay, maybe a little.) The real reason is because it is healthy since it requires so little fat. Okay, that’s a lie too. The truth? There is virtually no cleanup. No dirty saute pans. Yep, laziness has lead to French cooking. Go figure. This next Call is all about the paper too. Take a look…

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…

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

ON the MENU

I want to collect menus. Some of them are simply stunning. The effort put into the perfect design and print simply amazes me. But, then I catch an episode of Hoarding: Buried Alive, and I think, “I’ll just come eat here more often and admire the menu.” If you’re gonna collect, make it count. The home of this next Call would be a great place to start collecting. Take a look…

OPEN CALL: Cork Street London

CARRY BACK
some curry
FOR ME

Do you know that one of the most popular foods in London is curry? Mmmhmm. Not bangers-n-mash or blood pudding or spotted dick. Those are just the stereotypes. And although fish ‘n’ chips are still the traditional national food, make room for curry in every variety. You can see for yourself at the opening for this next Call. Take a look…

Open Exhibition

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All media except reproductions, film & video

DEADLINE: November 11, 2012

NOTIFICATION: December 1, 2012

ENTRY FEE: £20 for one (approx. $32.50 USD), £30 for up to 3, and £50 for up to 6 entries.

JUROR: The panel of judges is headed each year by Louis Singh, director of Beaux Arts Gallery London. In addition, four experts from the contemporary art world are also invited to participate, bringing the total on the panel to five. Members have included established artists, gallery owners, art critics and writers, art dealers, art enthusiasts and celebrities who may or may not be publicly recognized as accomplished artists.

Updates to the jury list are found here.

Louis Singh says, “St Ives in the 1970s was a somewhat lazier place than today. Late morning deals were customarily made with cigarette in one hand and glass of sherry in the other. Back then my father had the Wills Lane gallery which ensured my mind was constantly flooded with images of the St Ives School as soon as my eyes had opened.

“When I was ten my parents opened the Beaux Arts gallery in Bath which continued to nurture these Cornish roots. These days with a sister gallery in London, minus the sherry, not much has changed. I busy myself by keeping the gallery from growing old by steering some youth and raw contemporary talent, towards its doors.”

AWARDS: Grand Prize Award £1,000 Cash Prize & £1,000 worth of Materials and Services.

SALES: All works must be for sale at the exhibition, prices set by the artist, and Cork Street Open Exhibition will retain 40% of the selling price.

SHUCK and
GRIN

Let’s talk about frozen corn. I have heard all the arguments about frozen vegetable being the next best thing to fresh. But what I want to know, is WHY would any restaurant serve frozen corn on the cob during the time when in-season fresh corn is cheaper than frozen? Are we really too lazy to shuck corn, folks? Really? Please don’t be too lazy to enter this show from a state that knows a lot about corn. Take a look…
