CALL for ENTRIES: Trans*

Posted on February 4, 2015February 4, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

BREAKFAST
in bed

Gender rolls are “squishy” at my house. My husband does most of the cooking. I am the disciplinarian. Even our mail comes bizarrely addressed since I didn’t take his last name. It works for us. It is what we know. And, well, the food is good. 🙂 I use #imarriedforthefood a lot. This next Call explores gender identity & the experience of being trans. If this isn’t the Call for you, please pass it along…

Check out this Call for Entries from Waterloo Arts (Cleveland, OH) for Transgender Art Exhibit. I realize this applies to only a small percentage of AAAD readers; however, I am hoping you will post, re-post & tweet this Call so it can be found by artists that would best benefit. Thank you…

on a ROLL

Stuffed cabbage is a recipe that takes me back to my childhood. My grandmother had such a talent for making perfect little rolls. I wish I had paid better attention to how she did that because I struggle to make them presentable. Imagine my delight when I found a recipe for Deconstructed Stuffed Cabbage. So excited to try this one. In the meantime, this next Call is all about the CONstructed not the DEconstructed. Loving this theme…

my
BLACK BEAN
habit

Ethnic grocery stores are gateway habits for foodies. My favorite Cuban cookbook led me to my local Hispanic grocery in search of ingredients for authentic congri, and I came home with products I cannot pronounce and for which I have no use. So exciting. I appreciate being introduced to new food organically, so to speak. *snicker* This Gallery discovers artists for future shows from entries to open calls like this one. Organically…

THE FOOD
process

I find myself conflicted over food technology. While I appreciate the safety found in canning, freeze drying, pasteurization and more, I also have an undeniable desire to eat organic, heirloom varieties grown by my own hand. I know the answer is balance, but I remain conflicted about my relationship with the technological aspect of the food I consume–with every bite some days. This next Call focuses on the interaction, emotional & otherwise, between humans and their technological objects. This will be an intriguing show. Take a look…

Intelligent Objects

Intelligent Objects is an open call for those artworks that act as independent agents & explore the cross-section of analog & digital media. In this age, toasters communicate over the internet & robots vacuum our floors, this exhibition explores those artistic objects which appear to be responsive to our existence, or at least demand an empathy if not an emotion, that we give to sentient beings. The art in this exhibition need not be kinetic or sculptural, it is open to any combination of traditional & new media. Artistic “intelligence” may be static imagery, even represented by simple code. –from the prospectus

CUISINE

I get a lot of questions about living without gluten. When I tell waitstaff at a restaurant, I am met with “I’m sorry” or the sad-trombone-look-of-pity almost every time. Don’t cry for me Argentina. GF eating IS what you make it. It has made my family more adventurous, open and creative when it comes to food. Feminism is the same; it IS what YOU make it–good & bad. This next Call wants to know what YOU make of it. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Downeast

Posted on January 15, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

EAST WEST
food divide

Food, like language & art, is often just a matter of perspective. When I say Eastern food, does that conjure images of Chinese take out or Carolina BBQ? Does Western food conjure images of Tex-Mex or a California roll? It is all perspective For the record, MY answers would be BBQ & sushi. To be clear, this next “Downeast” Call refers to the Carolina, but it is open to everyone. And, now I want BBQ. Pick me up some pulled pork if you go to the opening. Take a look…

LITTLE BITE

Smaller isn’t always the same. Every member of my household is an avid label reader due to food allergies. One of the most important lessons we have learned is that miniature and compact versions of foods are not necessarily the same, nutritionally speaking. I find miniatures of candy bars are often sweeter due to a different ratio of ingredients than the originals. Sometimes, they add thickeners or starches to help them better hold their more compact shape as well. Be careful. This next show is all about the VIRTUES of being compact. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Feminist Sex

Posted on January 11, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

WIENERS,
anyone?

How did operating a grill become a feminist issue? I can’t tell you how many female friends I have that defer grilling activities to the men in their lives under the guise of not knowing “how to do it”. Really? Amongst this group of women who are financiers, scientists, diplomats & artists, no one can operate a grill? Please. Maybe they are just faking it, like me, to avoid the additional work occasionally. *Shhh* This next Call has NOTHING to do with the grilling of meat and EVERYTHING to do with feminism. Take a look…

TRUTH

Iowa = Corn. I have no doubt Iowans are justifiably proud of their corn. But, I could not BELIEVE they reintroduced my favorite food with a twist –Caprese Salad on a Stick. The Iowa State Fair debuted this genius idea in 2014. How did I miss this one? I ended up using it at my own art opening less than a month later. This next Call is another reasons Iowans should be proud. Investigate this opportunity…
