REMINDER: Rare Earth

OHMMMM

Have you heard of “Zen Cooking”? It is the trendy concept that the joy in cooking is in the act of cooking, not the end product. Really? I don’t get it. I cook BECAUSE I love to eat. If the end product isn’t good, then what was the purpose? I suspect it is a rare cook that really GETS this concept, and I wouldn’t be one of them. This next Call celebrates rarity of of another kind. Investigate…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Rare Earth. The entry fee at Darkroom is always low ($20), and they will provide free matting & framing if you work in their standard sizes. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Rare Earth

It is partially a gift of the subject itself, how varied the genre of landscape photography can be. Combine the extremes of the land each of us has walked, with the variety of visions each of us chooses to communicate, and we’re bound to witness just how rare our earth can be.

They are looking to see a range of what landscape images can be: macro details to vast panoramas, conceptual narratives, abstractions, document, or relational gestures. They hope to feature varied points of view from every crook and bend, angle and junction, on the globe. With your unique images, Darkroom Gallery will honor the extents of this Rare planet we call Earth.

ELIGIBILITY: Entrants must be at least 18 years old. If younger, you must have a legal guardian make the submission for you.

MEDIA:
Photography

DEADLINE:
December 12, 2012

JUROR: It is no wonder William Neill has developed a deep, spiritual connection with nature, being a resident of the Yosemite National Park area since 1977. His award-winning photography has been widely collected and exhibited in museums and galleries.

His work has been published in several books, and a retrospective collection of his finest landscape photographs was published by Bulfinch Press/Little, Brown & Co, in 1997, entitled Landscapes of the Spirit. Several periodicals have published his images, and Neill writes a monthly column “On Landscape”, for Outdoor Photographer magazine. Neill’s corporate clients include: Sony Japan, Bayer Corporation, Canon USA, Nike, Nikon, The Nature Company, and Sony Music/Classical.

Perhaps most important to the task of jurying Rare Earth, is Neill’s extensive experience in close observation of others’ work – he has been an instructor of photography for 32 years. Mr. Neill is looking forward to the opportunity to see your work, for the purpose of curating what will be an awe-inspiring exhibition of landscape photographs.

AWARDS: All selected entries are exhibited in the Darkroom Gallery and included in a full color exhibit catalog. Juror’s Choice receives a 30×48″ vinyl exhibit banner featuring their image. People’s Choice gains free entry into a future exhibit.

SALES: Darkroom offers free matting and framing of accepted entries for the duration of each of their exhibitions, subject to standard sizes. Photographers set their own prices if they wish to sell their work and retain all rights to their photographs. For commission details, go to the bottom of the Submission Rules page!

SUPER FOOD

I am always on the hunt for great snack foods. I crave a crunchy, salty snack to take with me on the go, but I try not to inhale garbage. Well, I tripped across a fantastic one this weekend. Baked Lentil Chips from Mediterranean Snacks. Don’t groan; I promise it doesn’t taste like tree bark. I had the Roasted Pepper, and I can’t wait to try the others. This might be a cool snack for you to take on your photo shoot for this next call. Happy Snacking!

LAZY DAYS
of Winter

Chili mac is in the crock pot right now. Mmmhmm, sophisticated. I spend a lot of time talking about gourmet foods, but it is cold and drizzly outside. And since I cannot spend a couple of balmy days in Louisiana soaking up the warm, humid goodness… I made chili mac instead of grilled portobellos with homemade pesto over flax seed, whole wheat pasta. Don’t judge me–or my chili mac. This next Call is enticing me, if only because I am dreaming of attending a Louisiana opening. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Collaborations

Posted on November 30, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

SWEET
in pairs

My husband and I don’t cook together often. He doesn’t believe in cleaning while you cook; therefore, a simple bowl of popcorn ends with the kitchen looking like someone washed a pack of dogs in the sink–a disaster area. I enjoy the collaboration, but the clean up is hell. This next Call is about a collaboration of a different sort. Investigate…

Pouvez vous faire cuire
la nourriture française?

I really wish I had finished cooking school. I made it through knife and sauce skills, but in hindsight, I should have stuck around for baking and production classes. There is no substitute for a French culinary education. Make sure the budget you supply for this next Call includes a culinary expedition while you’re delivering your work. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Methods (Alternative)

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

BRAISING
glory

As I may have mentioned a few hundred times, we try to be very careful about what we eat. Braising has become my alternative technique for cooking almost anything. A TINY smidgen of olive oil in a non-stick pan allows me to caramelize veggies and meats, then I de-glaze the pan with a little water that helps steam the food to the proper temperature. No frying needed. This next show wants to see you alternative methods. Might have to enter this one myself…

Check out this Call for Entries for Methods (Alternative) from the Kiernan Gallery (Lexington, Virginia). The entry is very reasonable, and the juror is well-documented. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Methods (Alternative)

Alternative process photography today is a hybrid of historical techniques and contemporary ideas. Old is new again and the resurgence of non-silver processes has led to The Kiernan Gallery’s second alternative process exhibition.

Whether it is in reaction to digital, or a hybrid process aided by the technology, these techniques remain as evocative as ever, bringing a unique style to present-day ideas. For Methods (Alternative), The Kiernan Gallery seeks images that use any alternative processing technique for any idea you wish to express.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Photographic media may include but is not limited to: Albumen, Bromoil, Cyanotype, Daguerreotypes, Gum Bichromate, Platinotypes, Salt Prints, Temeraprints, Tintypes, Wet Plate Collodion.

CALL for ENTRIES: Gold

Posted on November 26, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

GOLDEN
taters

Gold has been used to adorn everything, including food, for years. At least once per month, some entertainment magazine show features a sundae with gold leaf that costs $1500+, but there are cheaper ways too, like edible spray paints. But personally, I choose my golden food in a well-roasted Yukon gold potato. Or maybe a baked chicken. This next Call wants to see your take on all things golden. The deadline is a week away…so hurry.

Check out this Call for Entries from Beers Lambert (London) for the Gold exhibit. There is no entry fee, and many of you living stateside probably still need an international show on your resume. Take a look…

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

CALL for ENTRIES: Gold

Gold remains an enigma within the history of art and culture, and while much has been analyzed regarding its use, existence, and symbolism in art and culture, any historical discourse regarding the use of gold in art history has remained relatively stagnant in contemporary culture. Still, artists from the Byzantine period to Michelangelo and even Damien Hirst have made countless works with gold as the sole source, means, and directive of the work. Today, however, the use of gold in modern or contemporary art (while prevalent) is often used cheekily, consciously referencing the medium’s historical and overwrought allegorical signifiers, or self-awarely pointing out the kitsch connoted therein.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All media adopts gold as its raison-d’être will be considered, including: two-dimensional, three-dimensional, installation, video, performance, new-media and other traditional and non-traditional media.

DEADLINE: December 3, 2012

NOTIFICATION: It is the applicant’s responsibility to check the site in throughout December and January 2013, when results will be posted online. Only successful applicants will be contacted by email.

ENTRY FEE: None

CALL for ENTRIES:
Gathering Clouds: The Winter Studio

Artists are intuitive, sensitive and connected to their environment. Whether you live in Alaska or California there is a shift we all feel as winter approaches. Shorter days, longer nights.

THE SLEEPY
bird

Thanksgiving marks the end of a turkey-free holiday streak at my house. Until now, I haven’t had part in cooking a turkey in twenty-eight years. No joking. It isn’t that I dislike turkey so much as I believe that there are far better things to eat. My mother prefers maple-glazed ham; I like curry and honey glazed duck. But, my kid wanted turkey. The kid wins this time; the end of an era. This next Call is all about the end. This deadline is right around the corner…
