CALL for ENTRIES: 3 Minute Pictureshow

Posted on July 6, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

A KERNEL
of SURPRISE

It won’t surprise you that I sneak food into the movie theatre. For the record, it isn’t about being cheap–although I am astounded by the price of movie popcorn. It is actually about not being willing to eat the version of popcorn they still serve at my local theatre. Scary glow-in-the-dark, butter laden ickiness. I prefer a little parmesan, asiago and fresh-cracked black pepper on my delicate morsels. How ’bout you? This next Call will undoubtedly give you a reason to check out two different theatres’ popcorn. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for the Three Minute Picture Show! Get your filmed screened in Portland or San Francisco, and get this… there is a sliding scale entry fee from $5 to $25. More money for popcorn!

CALL for ENTRIES:
3 Minute Pictureshow

CALL for ENTRIES: Creative Quarterly No. 25

Posted on July 5, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

FOOD YES,
WHINE NO

I am a magazine reader. Yep, the paper ones. I read and peruse imagery as motivation for household projects, photography and, of course, cooking. And the occasional gossip rag. One of my favorite food magazines? Food and Wine, of course. I have delusions of grandeur each and every time I watch Top Chefs that I could win that show and have my work featured in F&W.

CALL for ENTRIES: A Show of Heads

Posted on June 30, 2011April 28, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

GOUD-A-HEAD

I talk a good food game. My culinary tastes seem brave to some, but they aren’t really. I know what I like, but I’m a chicken about trying some stuff just like you. I cannot bring myself to even try something called head cheese. I get that it is mainly just meat in aspic, but it sounds gross and doesn’t win huge points with me for aesthetics either. One of you should take a picture of yourself eating head cheese and send it to me. The first one that does will get a little ad in the side bar for a couple of months. Make it a good picture though… ’cause I WILL publish it before you get your ad. I wonder if head cheese is an eligible topic for this next Call for Entries. Take a look…

THE GOOD
STUFF

I often wonder what I would eat if I only had one meal left. I can’t wrap my brain around it, really. It would have to involve goat cheese…and dark chocolate …hollandaise …mussels steamed in white wine …and lots of garlic.

How to Get an Art Show: The Dinner Invitation

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

SWEET TOMATOES

My mother is a great cook. When I decided I wanted to learn how to can my own tomatoes, I asked her advice. I was annoyed by her answer because of how much seeminly unnecessary work was involved in canning something I could easily buy at the grocery store. I did it my way and ignored her advice all together. She enjoys telling anyone who will listen about how I cleaned tomatoes off the walls and ceiling of my laundry room for weeks. I should have listened. I didn’t have to DO it her way, but if I had listened, I would be enduring the laughter almost 20 years later and might not still be BUYING canned tomatoes. The moral of the story is pay attention…

I receive lots of “cooking questions” from readers, and I have noticed one question pop up repeatedly in my inbox, “How do I contact an art gallery about showing my work?” I’m going to answer it, and you don’t have to do it my way. But, don’t blame me if you end up with tomato on your face. Check it out…

*Editor’s Note: ArtAndArtDeadlines.com is on hiatus until I return from vacation on July 5th; however, we’ll keep publishing q&a, “best of,” and a handful of oddities to keep you entertained. Enjoy!

CONTACTING A
GALLERY

1. Dinner Invitation: The simplest, most obvious answer is: Enter a juried show. This site publishes invitations to those dinner parties almost EVERY DAY. Most gallery directors view juried show entries like gifts at at holiday party. They are excited to open them and hopeful of finding a little gem. Make a good impression, and you just might get a solo show offer. It really happens.

2. Plus One: If the invitation to dinner pan out, don’t forget about the Plus One. The single best way to get in touch with a gallery is by personal introduction from someone they have already invited to the party. An artist or friend that a gallery director already knows and trusts is the easiest way in. Don’t know anyone? Unlikely. Treat it like six degrees of separation and do your homework.

3. Party Crasher: The last answer is… be a wanted party crasher. If you’re gonna crash a party, make sure you make the most of your entrance. Unless you are a true people person, I don’t recommend just showing up at a gallery unannounced or calling and fumbling through awkward conversations about how you are the next best thing. Submit your work to the gallery by delivery via mail or messenger. But, it doesn’t have to be subtle. Make a splash in a good way when you crash the party, and next time you might be on the invitation list.

For example, I one had a friend who made a mock up of the gallery in miniature with his own work hanging in it… and got a solo show. I had another friend send a 4×6 canvas a day for 30 days to a gallery director who then had to assemble them into a painting at the end. She got a show too. They want to like you… give them a reason.

Have more questions? Email me.
My recipes don’t always work, but they are always free.

SPEAK TO ME

I wish food could talk. Wouldn’t you like to know why one grape in a cluster is sweet and juicy and the next elicits the “pucker” face? Me too. I want to know why some pineapples ripen on my counter in a day or two and the next pineapple stubbornly refuses. I think they would tell me if they could.
