CALL to ARTISTS: Housekeeping

Posted on January 10, 2011January 11, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

NUTS FOR COCONUT

I am not a good house keeper. We must own our faults, and this fact is one of my many faults. I don’t qualify for Hoarding or Clean House, but I also don’t dust unless my kid sneezes. There are always 4 loads of laundry that need to be done, and I am fairly certain there is a can of coconut milk in my cabinet that expired in 2006.

Life is too short.

However, I cannot afford to be a bad blog house keeper. All of you deserve better than dusty pages and rotten Calls. There are too many of you whose trust I have earned over the past year and a half to let things fall through the cracks.

So, I am counting on you to resist the urge to move on to checking other email or goofing off on facebook and help me out folks. We really need to work on cleaning up a few things that are left lingering about even after the New Year:

CLEANING LIST:

REJECTION LETTERS: I had hoped that the Rejection page would be in full swing by January, but I still don’t have enough letters to start properly. Please email your rejections letters and/or emails to me at submitart@artandartdeadlines.com .

I prefer scans of printed letters, but those are rare. Remember, sending a rejection letter qualifies you for free entry into the $2 Art Contest.

GALLERIES: A note to all of the gallery directors that read this blog… If your gallery is mentioned in one of the rejection letters I receive, you will get a feature page on your gallery on this site.

I always want to be fair, and this is my way of balancing the discouraging with the hopeful. I will take the gallery information from the gallery’s website as well as request input fromt he director. I hope this encourages you to encourage your artists to send in their letters. It is your opportunity to let artists know what you want.

FEATURED ARTISTS: I have offered the Featured Artists from the beginning of this site in 2009 through December of 2010 an opportunity to be chosen Featured Artist of the Year. They can receive votes in the form of comments through January 15, 2011.

Vote for your Favorite Artist by leaving a meaningful comment today.

Click Here to see all the Featured Artists of 2009/2010. Your comment cannot contain profanity or links to a website. They must say something… not just a smiley face or a thumbs up. Use your words.

SOCIAL NETWORKS: Many of you help promote this site on Facebook and Twitter, and I truly appreciate the support. I do want to encourage you to consider promoting your own work and supporting www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com on Google Buzz, Digg, Yahoo Buzz, reddit and more. The more people that read this blog, the more motivated I am.

Now the house has been swept.
The dishes have been washed.
The blog is now suitable for company.

As always, I love to hear from you…so, leave a comment or send an email with your ideas, your art, your success and your challenges.

Happy New Year from www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com!

CALL for ENTRIES: Form and Color

Posted on January 9, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

TASTES BEAUTIFUL!

How something looks affects how it tastes. I love the look of a plate of roasted brussel sprouts. With one look I know they promise a earthy grassiness and a nutty comfortable ease that I will relish. My eleven year old knows with one look that green lumps will not taste good. Everyone’s a critic. This Call for Entries offers you a chance to put your best image forward.

Check out this Call for Entries for the Form & Color book. This art publication is all art, no articles, and offers something shocking… a partial refund if you are rejected! What? No really.

CALL for ENTRIES: Form & Color

This is a book made by artists for artists (see Editor’s note at end), where every art manifestation is welcome. As artist we have all experienced first hand the difficulties in being published and being seen by the professional art world.

We all get tired of sending submissions without getting an answer, always left with the sensation that our money was lost and that our art was worthless. This is why Form & Color decided to lead and promote emerging and established artists to help them reach their goals.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all visual artists – worldwide – 18 years of age or older. All mediums will be accepted such as: painting (oils & acrylics, etc.), drawing, graphic art, photography (includes digital), mixed media, fiber, print making, sculpture, glass, metal, pottery, jewelry, etc. Only one medium per entry form. If you wish to enter two different mediums (ex. sculpture and painting, etc.), you are required to submit an entry form and fee for each particular medium you enter.

DEADLINE: March 1, 2011

NOTIFICATION: All artists will be notified of acceptance or non-acceptance by email (be sure to include you email address).

ENTRY FEE: The entry fee for up to three (3) digital images $40.00 (US Dollars). Artists that wish to enter more than three (3) art pieces may do so but they must pay an additional $5.00 fee per image. The entry fee can be paid via bank check or money order which must be in US Dollars and payable to Form & Color. Artists can also choose to pay by credit card through PayPal (this is the prefered method of payment) which is very safe and secure, print out your PayPal transaction receipt to include with your entry form.

ABOUT FORM & COLOR: Form & Color, the book, is an annual, full-color, fine quality, large (8″ x 10″) format, hardcover publication that is scheduled for release in April 2011. It is going to be High End Art quality book. No articles, focus ia strictly on images with the artist’s name and contact information.

The book will be available to order directly from Form & Color. Being the first volume we will commit to send it directly to the main Museums and Art Consulting Companies in U.S.A.–these are the ones always looking for new expressions of art for their clients.

For complete details, Read the Submission Guidelines!

*Editor’s Note: This post was written at the request of Form & Color publishing. I have no personal knowledge of this publication, and I could not locate an image of the publication (hence the random pic of my work). If you have any knowledge of previous issues of this publication as either a participant or a recipient, I encourage you to share your experience by leaving a comment.

CALL for ENTRIES: A True Story

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

BLESSED PEEPS

Some foods cannot be separated from a holiday or family event. Turkey and Thanksgiving for example… the image of turkey conjures family-friendly Rockwell-esque scenes for me even though Idon’t eat turkey for Thanksgiving. And Peeps® scream Easter to me…always. It doesn’t matter if you dress them in cocoa powder and shape them like bats for Halloween, I am still gonna wonder if you’ve had them left over since Spring. This next Call gives you an opportunity to tell your own story… paint your own scene, if you will. Luckily, you aren’t restricted to food…

Check out this Call for Entries from Vermont Photo Space Gallery called A True Story. Enter your work for as little as $20. Don’t forget Vermont Photo Space offers free framing & matting on accepted entries!

CALL FOR ENTRIES:
A True Story

Photography is the medium of memory. With its birth came the pictorial press and the realization that “a picture tells a thousand words.” This is documentary photography. It is present and tangible, and we rely on it to be authentic and true. It teaches us, and when presented in proper context, we believe what we see.

It is the job of the Photojournalist and Documentary Photographer to present the facts at hand. It is a challenging job often requiring instant decisions and sometimes in the face of substantial obstacles. How do we do this succinctly and objectively while providing an engaging and remarkable image or series?

Is it possible to capture a photographic truth while simultaneously expressing our naturally subjective eye?

Juror Peter Turnley has proven the task can be successful – have you?

For A True Story, VPS is looking for the documented event, person, or place, whether political, religious, cultural or environmental. Reality itself is infinitely more complex that what a single image can show, so we encourage your Photo Essay submissions of up to six images (some single images tell the whole thing adequately – these will be considered equally). As the Photo Essay is so often complimented or even interdependent with text, they will allow up to three sentences to accompany each accepted image for display in the gallery.

Of special note: VPS is able to accept essays for this exhibition! So much of the genre appears as photo story, and they are thrilled to offer the opportunity to exhibitors to submit the same. Whether you are submitting single images or multiples as a story, Juror Peter Turnley will consider your work as it is intended. Who knows, this exhibition may include a few very lucky photographers who present an outstanding documentary photo story in several images.

JUROR: Peter Turnley was educated in French Literature and International Relations, inspiring his truly International work. For the past quarter century, he has been photographing in more than eighty-five countries, capturing world conflict, and several major geo-political moments.

His portraits of political, cultural, and religious leaders as well as photo essays of a variety of social realities additionally weight his extensive, ever-expanding portfolio. He has published five books: “Beijing Spring,” “Moments of Revolution,” “In Times of War and Peace,” “Parisians” and “McClellan Street”. His images have been published in International magazines including Stern, Paris Match, Geo, Life, National Geographic, the London Sunday Times, Le Monde, and Doubletake.

Additionally, Turnley’s photographs have been showcased on the cover of Newsweek magazine over forty times. VPS is thrilled to have his extensive experience as a successful Photojournalist and Documentary Photographer applied to his mission as Juror for “A True Story.”

RULES FOR
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 VermontPhotoSpace.com 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 the submission closing date March 14, 2011.

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

Vermont Photo Space 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: Light, Space, Time & the Sea

Posted on January 4, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

DIPLOMACY STINKS

It is a happy, shiny New Year, and I am excited about the possibilities. Per usual, I am optimistic about the future… nauseatingly optimistic, according to my husband Jon. However, most folks will also tell you that my attitude toward life is often like my taste in food…direct, unapologetic and undiplomatic. Can food be unapologetic and undiplomatic? Have you ever met a cheese named Limberger? That sort of straight forwardness is what drew me to this next Call.

Check out the Call for Entries from the Light, Space & Time Gallery for their online Seascapes competition. You know that I am not a huge fan of online competitions; however, I think of this as digital publication which is always a good thing.

GOOSE ME

In addition to running the ever popular ArtAndArtDeadlines.com empire (hee), I create art of my own and hold down a day job as a Marketing Director. I frequently get asked what it would take for me to throw up my hands and give in to my desire to do nothing but cook and make art. The Goose would have to lay the Golden Egg. I have a 10 year plan, but the golden egg would make it a 10 second plan. Maybe this Call will be your golden egg.

A handful of you have found out that my family is musical. We sing in the car, in the shower, and in the kitchen, of course. My husband is programmed to sing the last song he heard on TV or radio…over and over until I call it to his attention. My son loves punk versions of holiday favorites.

CALL for ENTRIES: Graphic Design for a Cure

Posted on December 8, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

PINK ICING
on the CAKE!

This time of year is often accompanied by the primal urge to do something for others. I wish we could find that recipe to cook up on a more regular basis, don’t you? Check out the cookies from Red Riding Hood Edibles. Most of the women in my family have been affected by cancer in one form or the other. This next Call gives me an opportunity to cook up a little something to give back.

Check out this Call for Entries for the Poster Contest to support the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. There is no entry fee, and if your design is chosen, your poster will be plastered all over NYC. Plus, you’ll know that you helped just a little in the Race for the Cure for breast cancer. Take a look…

CALL for Entries: Run Breast Cancer out of Town

One in every eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime, which means that whether it’s a mother, daughter, sister, wife, colleague, or neighbor, chances are you will know someone who’s had to battle the disease.

Susan G. Komen for the Cure is the global leader in the fight against breast cancer, working to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures. The Greater New York City Affiliate is #1 in fundraising and grants given out of the entire Komen network of 125 Affiliates worldwide.

Now you have a chance to make a difference. Using your skills, you can join the fight to Run Breast Cancer Out of Town by submitting a concept for the 2011 Susan G. Komen New York City Race for the Cure campaign.

It’s simple.

Just follow the guidelines & your artwork could be seen all over New York City as part of next year’s Race campaign.

MEDIA: Create an amazingly eye-catching piece of artwork incorporating the words, “RUN BREAST CANCER OUT OF TOWN.”

Include New York City in your artwork. The city itself is one of the things that sets this Race apart, and they like to show it off. It doesn’t have to be the skyline, but be sure the art lets everyone know that they’re in the Big Apple.

Create an original piece of artwork that can be adapted to various proportions and sizes. Sometimes we may need something as small as a postcard and other times we may be on the Jumbotron at Macy’s. Think flexibility when designing your artwork.

COLOR: Pink is THE color. It is the universal color for breast cancer and should be a part of the color scheme. BUT, feel free to mix in other colors. The pinks used in their logo are Pantone 227 and 232.

FORMAT: Illustrator is the preferred application because vector art is the easiest to manipulate, but if you need to create your art using a different program or the old-fashioned way, by hand, then make sure that you create something that can be adapted to both vertical and horizontal formats (mainly vertical) and it must be at least 600 dpi at 8.5” x 11”.

Remember that they are going to need to add logos and some copy. Please include your name, address, telephone number and email address with your emailed entry.

DEADLINE: December 31, 2010. Please email your submission to vcalhoun@komennyc.org. Low resolution is best for emailing. If your artwork is selected they will require the high resolution version at that point.

RIGHTS: Contest participants are required to assign their interests in the artwork to the Greater New York City Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure as a condition to participation. Download the Assignment of Rights Form Please note that you must include an executed assignment form with your submission. Download the assignment form. A PDF or fax (212-560-9598) is fine.

PRIZES: $500 cash award, a copy of the final printed poster, your profile on the Komen Greater NYC website, and two free registrations in the Komen New York City Race for the Cure®

CALL for ENTRIES: Picturing Life as a Woman

Posted on December 7, 2010December 7, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

POTATO SPLAT

History has never been my favorite subject. However, I recognize how important a sense of history is in our everyday lives. Everytime I make potato pancakes …and inevitably burn, mangle or drop them …I smile knowing Julia Child got there before me. This next Call gives you a reason and purpose to reflect upon your history…at least about half of you.

Check out this Call for Entries from the MPLS Photo Center for Picturing Life as a Woman. Submissions are limited only by your imagination. With the holidays rapidly approaching, our lives are ripe with subject matter. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Picturing Life as a Woman

Women have been actively involved with photography since the medium’s inception in 1839. The barriers to their participation were lower than in the other arts, and recognition often came faster. Yet women and their photographs have not been as visible as they should have been in view of their numbers and past influence. Only in fairly recent exhibitions and critical writings have women’s work in photography received due consideration.

Diane Arbus, Roni Horn, Nan Goldin, Cindy Sherman, Kiki Smith and thousands more women use their cameras as instruments of revelation – often about themselves. In the process they challenge assumptions about what it means to be and be seen.

ELIGIBILITY: This International Call for Entry invites women from around the world to submit photographs that demonstrate a smart, critical take on women with cameras in this day of a more open and subtle notion of gendered identity.

Submissions are only limited by your imagination and may cover a broad range of challenging, personal, emotional, and political issues facing women today. Their work-life, home, family, friends, relationships, life partners, homosexual, heterosexual, politics, equal rights, stereotypes, causes, roles and wishes.

DEADLINE: January 24th, 2011

NOTIFICATION: January 30th, 2011

ENTRY FEE: $35 for the first 5 images, $10 each additional

AWARDS: First Place – $400, Second Place – $300, Third Place – $200, Honorable Mentions(3) – $100

JUROR: Christina Chang, Assistant Curator, Wiesman Art Museum

OPEN CALL: Space 237

Posted on December 6, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

VALUE MENU

I like fast food as much as the next girl. But too much of anything can be bad for you. And just sometimes, I would rather the question be “chicken or fish?” instead of “do you want fries with that?” Open calls are a little more like table service while themed shows are a bit like going through the drive-thru–I love them both. Check out this next call …chicken or fish?

Check out this Open Call for Artists Proposals for the upcoming season at Space 237. The entry fee is only $20 for a full year of shows, and they consider ALL media, even performance art. Don’t miss out on this opportunity!

DEADLINE: January 15, 2011

ENTRY FEE:
$20 entry fee, payable to Space 237

SALES: The gallery takes a 40% commission. All work must be for sale.

MEDIA: All media welcomed.

ELIGIBILITY: Must be 18 yrs or older.

ABOUT SPACE 237: Space 237 is a place where both artist and art enthusiast can interact and have an impact on what they may ultimately become, while reflecting upon the times and attitudes, causes and concerns that often require the peculiarly sensitive eye of the artist to synthesize and define in ways foreign to most of us.

Space 237 is creating an art environment dedicated to all forms of expression unfettered by concerns of acceptability to those who would otherwise feel constrained to prefer only the viewer’s status quo. A place where art, music, “performance”, film and video will enhance and expand the viewer’s consciousness with sights and sounds resulting in a total immersion in the many expressions of the creative process. Space 237 exists to encourage the next generation aspiring artists.
