about cheese

I love goat cheese.  True.  I love blue cheese. True.  I love brie.  True.  I love crème fraîche.  False.  If I want sour cream, I’ll eat sour cream.  Crème fraîche has a huge fat content and far less of the sour that makes sour cream distinctive.  No thanks.  This next Call addresses the non-cheesy version of truth and falseness.  Investigate…

I have an almost primal daily craving for chocolate.  I’ve recently adjusted my eating habits to accommodate fitting into my Spring clothing, but my need for chocolate has not changed.  I believe that there are moments when an Andes Mint is the only thing that has stood between me and the certain death of one of my family members.  Okay, maybe not death, but ugliness nonetheless.  This next Call is all about the prime, primal and primary.  Please do not miss this one…

My son loves blueberries, and buying blueberries is a happy indulgence for me to supply for him.  I have been known to buy lots of blueberry-flavored foodstuffs, but I’m also an avid label reader.  I believe people have the right to know the actual identity of what we are eating.  And folks, blueberries are a hot mess in almost any form outside the actual blueberry.  Check out foodidentitytheft.com if you’re interested.  In the meantime, this next show is all about identity.  Check it out…

Work by Guest Juror Geoff Hargadon!CALL for ENTRIES:
Art/Identity

 

Art is an extension of the self, a combination of flesh and soul that is enriched by a variety of experiences, loves, histories, and hopes. Within the criss-crossing of lines, the pooling of paint, the spectacle of performance, the mechanical memory of the photograph, and the interactivity of video, one can catch a momentary glimpse of essential characteristics of personhood. They invite you to submit work of all media that examines identity in all its forms—the personal, the social, the revolutionary, the imaginary.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists residing in the US.

MEDIA: 2D, 3D or Time Media.

Work by Guest Juror Susan Sills!DEADLINE:  May 12, 2013

NOTIFICATION: May 20, 2013

ENTRY FEE: $25 for one entry of up to 3, $40 for 2 entries (total of 6).

JUROR: A resident of Somerville, MA, Geoff Hargadon is a multimedia artist who has shown across the country. His current project, Cash for Your Warhol, has caused a stir all over the world by blurring the lines of fact and fiction, self and society, in an uncertain economic climate.

Susan Sills was born and raised in Chicago and moved to the Boston area in 1973.  After receiving a Masters in Architecture from Harvard, Sills began her career as an architect and designer. In the early 1990’s she returned to painting and combined her innovative spirit with her training and experience.  This led to an endlessly evocative body of multimedia work.  Her artistic vision exists “somewhere between the safe, structured environment of the world around us and the chaos of the textures within us all”.

So, I’ve been out of town without my husband.  That’s mean’s I have consumed huge amounts of shellfish.  He’s allergic, and when he’s not around, I tend to over indulge.  I don’t know how anyone lives with wine-steamed mussels with garlic butter.  How does so much flavor exist in such a tiny package?  Is it wrong that I hope to travel again soon just to have mussels?  Maybe so.  This next Call is all about packing a  big wallop in a small package.  Take a look…

I learned my love of eating from my family, but I learned my love of food from experience far outside my family dynamic.  You can’t choose your family as a child, and my family loved fried chicken and collard greens.  I love fried chicken, too. You can keep the collards, thanks.  But, I was simply never happy accepting the limited palate of “Southern” home-style cooking.  I still want to try everything.  That’s just who I am.  This next Call is all about your family.  Don’t miss this chance…

Food has interrelation–be it natural or forced.  In the US, peanut butter is only naturally related to grape jelly, but it is fantastic with raspberry jam.  PB&J has a distinct meaning apart from its separate components.  My immediate connection with peanut butter is peanut sauce, but my connection to PB&J is childhood comfort.  Odd, eh?  This next show is about the interrelation of work, one deriving meaning from the other.  I like this theme…

Art is the original social media: it reaches out and draws together, trying to make connections. It incites discussion and draws meaning through relationships. We are looking for works that are either created in a series or multiple elements (like diptychs) that generate meaning through their interrelation, or works that react to existing famous artworks. The mathematics are simple: one is quotidian and two is exponential.

MEDIA: 2 and 3 dimensional art executed within 3 years of entry date and not previously been displayed in the library.
