CALL for ENTRIES: 2011 Annual Juried Show

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!CAKE FOR EVERYONE 

Aside from food, there are a few themes that run through my blog posts.  Entering academic shows can be a huge plus for all artists…but I find that emerging artists, regardless of age, really benefit most.  If you get juried in to an academic exhibition, make every effort to attend the opening.  You’d be amazed by how much you can learn by being a fly on the wall when no one knows you’re there.  And remember, sometimes you can have your cake and eat it too…academic settings are great for art sales.

Check out this great Call for Entries for Chowan University‘s National Juried Exhibit for 2011.  The entry fee is a little higher than I would like, but the juror is great and the opening is in January when many commercial galleries are on a bit of a hiatus.  Take a look…

STEAM ME UP, SCOTTY!

I know you are of you Starbucks-aholics are shuddering, but we don’t own a coffee pot.  I am not a coffee drinker, and the smell of brewing coffee makes me a touch nauseous.  So, when Jon wants coffee, he either uses our French press which can take a little while, or we just pick it up on the way in to work.  Did you know that even our convenience store has a barista?  No joke.  Jon’s coffee came with a beautiful heart-shaped cloud of cream.

Click to learn more about the Spherical Show at A Smith Gallery“When looking back at my images, I was amazed at how many of them contained spheres and circles.  It was not intentional.  It just happened.  The circles and spheres were sometimes the center of interest in the image, but often they played more of a subtle supporting role or were maybe just implied.  And then there is my series of round images made with a fisheye……”

Circles and spheres are an integral part of our lives.  From the wheels on our cars to the cup you pour your morning coffee into, circles appear everywhere.  So, look around you right now.  How many circles or spheres do you see?

Editor’s Note:  I know, I know.  I can smell the paranoid, suspicious email headed my way about how I shouldn’t promote Calls from newbies.  Bottom line…we all start somewhere.  They are building a blog and finding a few fans on facebook too.

This blog is only a year old.  If everyone had been suspicious, I wouldn’t have a few hundred of you mixed nuts reading these posts everyday.  Then where would we all be (she says with an exaggerated sense of self-importance)?  Have a little faith, folks.  When you expect the best…you very often get it.

CALL for ENTRIES: Urban & Country Landscape

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!…AND THE CHEESE
STANDS ALONE

My family enjoys joking… that if I continue moving to towns with smaller and smaller populations that I will eventally live in complete isolation except, of course, for my husband, internet access, food delivery, my dogs and a separate home for my shoe collection.  Funny, eh?  There is something to be said for both urban AND country living.  I love them both, but buying fresh eggs and goat milk from a farm on my way home has skewed my objectivity just a smidge.

I cannot wait to see the results of the Call for Entries for The Urban and Country Landscape Annual Book from The Worldwide Photography Gala Awards.  It is a type of art publication–which you know I love, and part published exhibit.  There is no entry fee unless you are accepted.  Take advantage of this great opportunity to both tell your story and show your work.

The theme is ample and everything will depend on your interpretation, knowing that we will like to screen landscapes and cityscapes with or without people in the scene. People can be predominant in the scene.
Both color and black and white (including duotones, toned) will be accepted to be screened.  Abstract, micro and macro images will not be accepted. All kind of processes, including digital manipulation will be accepted.

Those works which passed the first screening will be exhibited for one year in the online WonderPick gallery, and available for sale.

Prior Snap to Grid reception at LACDA!Gallery Statement:  “Every year for 50 years the L.A. Municipal Gallery has held its ‘Open Call’ exhibit where any artist can show up with their art and an entry fee (to benefit gallery programs) and the piece is shown.

“The Los Angeles Center For Digital Art decided to launch an international experiment of the same nature where the artists upload images that are printed and hung by the gallery. The hundreds of works are displayed in a grid like installation (reminiscent of postcard art shows of the 1980’s) where every work submitted is exhibited.

“The usual (less than democratic) selection process where only the precious few are chosen is turned on its head in a curatorial anarchy where everyone gets to participate and the viewer is literally left to be the judge. The show represents a snapshot of a current moment in art history when digital imaging has reached the hands of the many, an age where culture belongs to the ‘mobblogers’ around the globe.

“From Thailand to Texas, amateur to academic, beautiful to banal and beyond the monumental quantity and variety of “Snap to Grid” becomes an aesthetic experience where each individual piece adds to an agglomerative effect that has a life of its own.”

CALL for ENTRIES: The Spice of Light

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!FLOURESCENT
RUBBER CHICKEN

I have spent the last two days in a ballroom in Northwest Tennessee at a corporate conference.  As you might imagine, the rubber chicken served at ALL of the conferences was not the highlight of my culinary experience.  However, I am most surprised that what I missed.  More than anything, I missed the sunlight on my face.  Flourescent lighting is not your friend.  Every chance I could find between seminars I stood in the sun.

Imagine my delight to find this great Call for Entries from Vermont Photo Space Gallery called The Spice of Light celebrates the beauty of nature, specifically light, that we find the essence of our souls.  As a phenomenal bonus Vermont Photo Space Gallery, this gallery offers free matting and framing. Take a look…

CALL FOR ENTRIES: The Spice of Light

Fine art nature photographers create emotions, feelings and memories. Sometimes Mother Nature gives you the perfect light, the perfect composition, the perfect colors, and you are able to present your experience exactly as the lens captured it. 

Learn more about the Vermont Photo Space Gallery!Unfortunately, most of the time…she doesn’t. This doesn’t lessen the excitement, the drama, you experienced at the moment of capture.  At times like this, you have to go deep within yourself to discover the colors, lines, and shapes that not only express what you experienced, but also transfer that emotion to the viewer.

Color: the Spice of Light is your opportunity to express nature in a manner that doesn’t necessarily express reality, but does express your feelings and experience at the moment of capture.  And, by all means, if nature gave you that “perfect moment”, then submit that moment!  The Juror wants to see drama through the use of composition, color and light….an image that makes the viewer want to stop and spend time with your creation….an image that makes the viewer FEEL!  Remember, it’s within the beauty of nature that we find the essence of our souls.

Reaching Out 2 by juror Bruce K. Haley, Jr.JUROR:  Bruce K. Haley, Jr. uses the camera lens as his paint brush.  His bold and colorful presentation of nature has made his work much sought after throughout the United States. 

Since November of 2002, Haley’s award-winning art has appeared in over one-hundred exhibitions in West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Colorado, North Carolina Michigan, and California.  His work is included in many corporate and private collections including six pieces purchased by the state of West Virginia for their permanent art collection. 

In Bruce’s words, “Photography isn’t about f/stops, shutter speeds or equipment. it’s about living, feeling, seeing.  It’s about opening my mind to learning, not only about the people, places and things around me, but also, about me.  Photography, for me, is life living, life giving.”
