CALL for ENTRIES: 2nd Annual Clay National

Posted on April 15, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

EAT OFF CLAY
not the clay itself

Dinner is cooked (and eaten) in either undies or pajamas in my house. My husband usually cooks dinner. Dinner is cooked directly after work. My husband is a commercial potter. How are these connected? My hubby is forced (by me) to get out of his clay embedded clothing in the garage to prevent a gray trail in his wake. So, he cooks in whatever was under his clothes or pajamas if he makes it that far. This next call WANTS your clay, but please don’t attend the opening in your undies. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Workhouse Arts Center (Lorton, VA outside D.C.) for The 2nd Annual Clay National. This is a great show, reasonable fee, respected juror and a historic venue. Please do not miss this opportunity!

CALL for ENTRIES: Sense of Place

Posted on April 7, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

FOOD MEMORIES

Frequently, the sense memory I have with food OFTEN brings me to a specific place. Antipasti reminds me of romantic living room picnics with my sweet husband that have become the tradition of our marriage. Boiled peanuts remind me of combing the flea markets of South Carolina for hidden treasures. Soft, doughy pretzels remind me of laughing hysterically with my kid on the Scrambler at the State Fair. This next Call’s exhibit is located in a fantastic space of its own. Take a look!

CALL for ENTRIES: Edges & Curves

Posted on April 2, 2012April 2, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

AGED to PERFECTION

My taste buds are aging well. I can still tell the difference between Parmesan, Romano and Asiago cheeses–even in bad grocery-store-powdered form. And, I have fallen newly in love with beets. My art is getting better too. Who knew? Well, the Haggus Society knew; that’s who. This next Call want to prove that we all get better with age. This is a great opportunity!

Check out this Call for Entries from The Haggus Society for the 2nd Annual Edges & Curves, Nothing In Between exhibit which will be held Upstairs at The Market Gallery (Los Angeles, CA). To ensure full disclosure, I want to make sure you know I am a Hag member, in good standing. Take a look…

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

CALL for ENTRIES:
Edges & Curves,
Nothing in Between

Last year, 2011, the Haggus Society presented the 1st annual Edges & Curves, Nothing In Between exhibition which successfully challenged the myth that older artists have little to no edge.

This year’s theme “Close Your Eyes” will explore wedge issues presented in the public discourse via all channels of media consumption.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to any artist 40 years and older

MEDIA: 2D (no larger than 32″ x 44 inches), small 3D (no larger than 14″ x 10″ x 8″inches). They are considering opening up the exhibition to performance, music, spoken word/poetry. So, feel free to send those media as submissions, too.

DEADLINE: July 4, 2012

ENTRY FEE: $12.50 for up to 6 images for non-members. Submission fees are waived for Haggus Society members in good standing.

JUROR: Natalie Abrams’ work examines suspending moments in time; the physical and textural experience of those moments, the delicate beauty of our surroundings and the difficulty of preserving the present. An environmentalist, Abrams’ abstract landscapes were first exhibited at the R&F Gallery in the three person show “Not Seeing the Forest”.

Using a technique as fluid and unpredictable as nature itself, led to the development of her highly sculptural ribbon paintings; pieces which blur the line between painting and sculpture. The ribbon works have been exhibited in national exhibitions including the Third Annual Encaustic Invitational, as a highlighted artist at Ball State University with Encaustic Works 07, as well as the 2010 book “Encaustic & Beyond”.

Abrams’ latest work further explores humanity’s relationship to our surroundings in the form of sculptural landscapes and topography, and the mirrored societal relationships therein. Development of this work into freestanding installation works will be the focus of her upcoming Affiliate Artist Residency with the McColl Center.

SALES: The Haggus Society receives a 40% commission from all art sold. Please include this in your pricing. If a work is not for sale please indicate with NFS.

*The Haggus Society is a sponsored project of Fractured Atlas, a non-profit arts service organization. Contributions for the purposes of The Haggus Society must be made payable to Fractured Atlas and are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

CALL for PROPOSALS: Solo in Vegas

Posted on March 29, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

BEADS of SILVER

Dragées remind me of Las Vegas. You know… the little candy beads, often silver, that you see decorating cakes and cupcakes. Dragées also remind me of a Martha Stewart show many moons ago when Miss Piggy was the guest star, and they made cookies decorated with “dra-geeeees,” as Miss Piggy pronounced it. But, I digress. This next call has nothing to do with Miss Piggy and everything to do with Vegas. Take a look…

PICK ME! PICK ME!

I now live closer to town, and therefore, closer to food–fast food. It isn’t all evil. I succumb to McDonald’s® fries on occasion, but I also like the chipotle chicken wrap.

This next call is themed to encourage people to make a healthy choice as well. Take a look at this cool idea…
