GOURMET

I had another Jetsons dream. This one involved me in my futuristic kitchen that was equipped with completely mobile gadgetry. I could sit or stand in one place and everything would come to me as I needed it just by thinking it. Is it telling that I even dream about my own laziness? Maybe instead of my laziness, it was just a premonition of a design for this next Call. So cool…

Check out this Call for Entries from Dreams by Machine (Ventura, CA) for Opulent Mobility. I rarely get to describe a Call as unique and even more rarely get to publish that there is no entry fee; but, this Call is both. Don’t miss this winning combination…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Opulent Mobility

If you could have a walker, a wheelchair, crutches, prosthetic arm/leg/etc. or a home/workplace with unlimited accessibility of any style and any kind, what would that look like? What secret powers would they have? How do you re*imagine mobility and disability?

DEADLINE: August 19, 2013

So I’m a little shy about my food knowledge. My friends, readers and even my family ask food questions all the time with the assumption that I will know the answers because I write about food everyday. And, if you need to know how to boil the perfect egg, I’m your woman. But, I can’t tell you the flavor profile of every fruit, veggie and meat on the planet because I haven’t tried them ALL. I’m working on it though. In the meantime, when asked a question to which I don’t have an answer. I just shyly beg off the subject. Don’t be shy about this next opportunity…

Check out this Call for Entries from Shy Rabbit (Pagosa Springs, CO) for The Art of It All. Like the name of the show implies, they are open to all media–even some fine craft like jewelry, basketry and glass work. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Rootlessness

Posted on July 26, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

VOLUMES
of food

I have drafted a dozen cookbooks in my head. They are usually inspired by whatever food eccentricity I am dwelling on at the moment. But they always have their roots in momentary excitement as opposed to being deep-rooted in a true philosophy about food. Maybe if I ever find myself, a cookbook will make it out of the draft stage. In the meantime, my roots will have to be of the vegetable variety. This next Call want to explore YOUR feelings on roots, or the lack thereof…

Check out this Call for Entries from DRAFTspace (NY, NY) for Rootlessness, a two-part themed exhibit. Selected artists will exhibit their solo exhibitions in the street-level pop-up space on Manhattan’s vibrant Lower East Side gallery district. This is a great chance for that New York opening you’ve always wanted…

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

CALL for ENTRIES: Rootlessness

The exhibition series will consist of two sections – Works on Paper and Works on Space – and one exhibition proposal for each section will be chosen and realized on New York’s Lower East Side.

NY has historically been home to ethnically diverse immigrants, inspiring feelings and experiences related to migration, temporality, transformation, assimilation, or conflict. DRAFTspace is hosting this exhibition series to provoke attention and discussion about this sense of rootlessness. Artists are encouraged to interpret the theme creatively.

The theme of rootlessness is connected to the unique space setup and location. The exhibit will not be held in a permanent gallery space. Instead, it will temporarily occupy a street-level vacant retail space that will be consecutively transformed to fit the different identity and characteristics of each exhibition.

The Lower East Side where this event will take place has long been an immigrant neighborhood and has seen a series of immigrant communities pass through it. The area has undergone gentrification, starting in the mid-2000s and has since become home to upscale boutiques and numerous contemporary art galleries.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Painting, Drawing, Printmaking, Photography, or Illustration for “Works on Paper” section OR Sculpture or Site-Specific Mixed Media Installations for “Works on Space” section

DEADLINE: August 31, 2013

NOTIFICATION: September 15, 2013

ENTRY FEE: $40 per entry for up to 10 images

AWARDS: $500 Cash Prize & Solo Exhibition. The artist of each selected proposal will receive a $500 cash prize and his or her solo exhibition proposal will be realized.

SQUASHED

I think the teenagers that work at my local market think I am the crazy produce lady. It might have something to do with the muttering under my breath when they drop the pineapple on my tomatoes or the fact that I will stand in a longer line to get the cashier that won’t drop a cantaloupe on my cilantro. The muttering prevents me from coming unhinged. The only thing missing from the scenerio is my muttering “whippersnappers,” but I assure you it will show up eventually. Hehe. This next Call wants unhinged in a less curmudgeonly way, I suspect. You decide…

HOLD THE MILK
please

Even my dogs have become finicky eaters. They have always been Milk-Bone® kind of dogs. But it seems that lately they have started turning up their nose to their usual treats. I’ve tried peanut butter flavored and beef basted with no results. I already bake a lot of foods from scratch for my family, and I fear dog treats may get added to the list soon. If I am going to make treats, I’d rather make them for the hard working pups involved with this next call instead of my spoiled brats. Take a look…

BOOKS
for breakfast

We are all taught from an early age not to judge a book by its cover. However, nearly every cookbook in my collection got there because of an appetizing photograph on the cover. A friend that photographs food for a living told me that the looks are often achieved through under cooking, over cooking, shellac, resin and paint. What a shame that such beautiful food never gets eaten. But that knowledge does make me feel better about the ugly stuff I serve fairly regularly. This next Call wants to see your books and challenges artists of ALL media to enter. Take a look…

the
HEART-BEET
of health

I am convinced that food is the future of health care. I don’t really fit the stereotype of a patchouli-wearing, dread-locked Mother Earth worshiper. But as I age, I find myself turning away from traditional medicine and turning toward food remedies. All I can say is that it is working for me, and it has added a whole new air of importance to the food I already so dearly love. This next Call wants your take on Mother Earth. May I suggest beets?

Check out this Call for Entries from ArtAscent (online) for Mother Earth, their 2nd Int’l Art Competition. If you haven’t figured it out, hard copy art publication is being replaced by online art magazines. You can’t beat ’em, so I suggest you join them.

So, what does Mother Earth represent to you? Existentialism, the human struggle, environmentalism, spirituality, wellness, origins, mythology, balance, cultural unity and interconnectivity, responsibility, something else? –from artascent.com

LASAGNA
anyone?

So, I’ve been looking for a wheat-less lasagna recipe without having to resort to gluten-free pasta. It hasn’t been easy. I’ve toyed with the idea of eggplant or zucchini ribbons, but that seems too expected. Then I ran across Varza a la Cluj, (Romanian version of lasagna) prepared from several layers of finely shredded cabbage (fresh or sour) and a minced meat mixed with rice and bacon and baked in the oven. I’ll let you know how it turns out. In the meantime, this next Call offers three shows–one of which might allow you to try Varza a la Cluj IN Romania. Check it out…
