SUBLIME

The transition from Summer to Fall foods in the South is an odd muddle of unlikely cohorts.  If I hit the farmers market at the right time of year, I can get beautiful lettuce and huge heirloom tomatoes while I am picking out my pumpkin for carving.  You’ve gotta love a long growing season; it seems like every veggie gets a second chance to produce.  This next Call is all about transit of people and things with places to be and people to see.  Investigate…

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

In Transit

 

Whether by road, sea, rail, air, or other means, vehicles are both essential and ubiquitous in our daily lives. Photographers have documented transportation history, as NASA launched rockets, Ford assembled cars, and the Wright brothers took flight. As modes of transportation, photographers observe the intersections of cultures on public transit and the isolation of solitary commuters on the highway. Modes of transit spawn communities, and photographers have documented biker gangs and houseboats.

Journeys are photographed out of windows of speeding vehicles; blurred, voyeuristic, and fleeting. The vehicles themselves are cultural icons and status symbols: sailboats, muscle cars, Harley-Davidsons, and fixed gear bicycles. For In Transit, The Kiernan Gallery seeks images from and of the vehicles that move us.

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists

MEDIA:  All photographic media are encouraged.

CALL for ENTRIES: Balance

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!LIME to ME

I have become more keenly aware of balance of flavors as my taste buds mature.  Once upon a time, barbeque pizza was a treat on its own.  Now, it requires cilantro and a squeeze of lime–a touch of acid to cut the ooey gooey-ness of it all. Is it that my taste is evolving, or am a just more easily bored by food?  This next Call is all about your view of balance.  Take a look…

Balance

 “What I dream of is an art of balance” – Henri Matisse

 

Balance in art is the arrangement of elements so no one part overpowers the other, or seems heavier than the other.

There are three different perspectives on balance: symmetrical balance – stable and formal.  Asymmetrical balance – non-stable and dramatic. Radial balance – alludes to movement. How do you utilize balance in your art?  If selected you will be a part of an exciting group exhibit in New York City.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All media submitted must be no larger than 36″ in any direction.

Louis Singh says, “St Ives in the 1970s was a somewhat lazier place than today. Late morning deals were customarily made with cigarette in one hand and glass of sherry in the other. Back then my father had the Wills Lane gallery which ensured my mind was constantly flooded with images of the St Ives School as soon as my eyes had opened.

“When I was ten my parents opened the Beaux Arts gallery in Bath which continued to nurture these Cornish roots. These days with a sister gallery in London, minus the sherry, not much has changed. I busy myself by keeping the gallery from growing old by steering some youth and raw contemporary talent, towards its doors.”

Food quality is often the key to good food.  I had lunch with a friend a couple of weeks ago, and she ordered an egg salad sandwich.  She raved about how it was the best egg salad ever.  A few days later I was having lunch at the same restaurant, and I asked Chef Sam what was in the egg salad.  His answer? Eggs, mayo, salt & pepper.  Some things just don’t need to be complicated.  This next Call is all about minimalism in art, not food.  Take a look…

cross the road?

The best part of hitting the open road is, of course, the FOOD.  My practice is to spend a little time surveying the locals of where we are about the best place to eat.  Inevitably, I get a significant number of people that refer me to the same place.  And it always ends up being “the best breakfast” or “the best burger” in town.  Getting eggs right isn’t easy, folks, and I always appreciate a good reference.  This next Call is all about hitting the road.  Investigate for yourself…

I detest large menus.  I can usually make a pretty quick decision, but I married the most indecisive man on the planet.  Large menus mean that I am going to have wait even longer to eat.  Sometime being able to have anything you want isn’t really what you want.  This next Call is completely open, and for some of you it will be a hard choice.  Good luck…
