CALL for ENTRIES: 6x6x2013

Posted on February 19, 2013February 19, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

SMALL PLATE
big stomach

The natural result of my food obsession is that I have tried every diet on the planet, or so it would seem. One of the funniest (and most futile) was to use only 6″ x 6″ square plates. The thought is that you could fool your brain into thinking you had eaten a full-size plate of food while only actually consuming the smaller portion. The one problem with that plan is that I’m not that easily suggestible. Is anyone? This is the next Call is a far better use of the 6″ square. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Rochester Contemporary Art Center (RoCo) for the 6x6x2013. There is no entry fee for up to 6 submissions. This show looks great on your resume, and your work could hang side by side with celebrity artists! One of my favorite shows of the year…

CALL for ENTRIES: Virtual Delights

Posted on February 18, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

SOMETHING NEW?
not blue

There is a downside to being a long-time foodie. As the years have gone by, I don’t have as many first delights. Because the range of food I have tried (both good and bad) is so huge. I do not get the excitement and pure delight of discovering a truly unique flavor very often. The last one I can really remember is uni (sea urchin). This next Call features a new flavor of Virtual Delight. Be among the first few artists…

CALL for ENTRIES: Works on Paper

Posted on February 16, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

PEARLS
not onions

I would, on occasion, gladly work for food, but did you know that the Egyptians that built the pyramids were often paid with beer, bread and onions. I don’t think so; not this girl. As I have previously mention, I’m not a beer kinda girl, and as much as I love bread, a girl cannot live by bread and onions alone. This next Call’s fee cannot be paid in bread and onions, but it is Pyramid inspired. Investigate…

CALL for ENTRIES: Surrounded

Posted on February 3, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

MOOOO-VE
over

I’m not a huge fan of buffet restaurants. I understand why people hosting large parties prefer buffets, but I choose NOT to go to buffet restaurants because I prefer not to be surrounded by people. And, not all food should be held at the same temp. I don’t like being part of the herd. Luckily, this next Call is about art and not food because it is a bit like a buffet style show. As I mentioned, sometimes it just works. Investigate…

CALL for ENTRIES: Mayhem

Posted on February 1, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

THE POPCORN
fiasco

I recently reclaimed my kitchen. Lately, the time I spend outside of my home office, art and music studios is greatly reduced, and now I handle almost ALL of the cooking again. I’m loving it, but I have become SO territorial. My husband can make popcorn, and it looks like someone has been killing zombies. And why, pray tell, if the dishwasher is empty can the dirty dishes not go there instead of on the counter? Deep breaths; I digress. This next Call is all about Mayhem; Send them your best…

WINE
not whine

I am now officially one of those old codgers that complain about the price of potatoes to the grocery cashier and bitch about the prices of soft drinks to my waitress. Ugh. I cannot believe I have turned into THAT person, but I have. My Dad would be so proud. But, I don’t feel alone due to the number of artists I listen to lament the price of entry fees. This next Call doesn’t have one. Woohoo!

CALL for ENTRIES: Abstraction

Posted on January 24, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

NOT THE SAME OLD
same old

My favorite restaurant added a whole new selection of side items from creamed cauliflower to spaghetti squash Parmesan. I love it when the old standard surprises you with a little refresher. This next Call is a perfect example. One of my favorite photography-specific galleries is offering their FIRST non-photographic solo show. So exciting…

Check out this Call for Entries for Spring Featured Artist – Abstraction from the Kiernan Gallery (Lexington, VA). The entry fee is higher than our norm, but remember…you’re gambling on a SOLO show.

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

CALL for ENTRIES:
Abstraction

Abstract art is an exploration of color, form, movement, or other intangibles that need not be wedded to a recognizable subject. Such work is limited only by the imagination. Non-figurative art, nonobjective art, and nonrepresentational art are all acceptable.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: The Kiernan Gallery seeks a body of 2D, non-photographic work that partially or fully obscure the recognizable world.

DEADLINE: February 20, 2013

AWARDS: A one-month solo show. A feature on The Kiernan Gallery’s blog and website. An electronic show card designed and distributed by The Kiernan Gallery.

SALES: Kiernan Gallery no longer takes commission on sold works. But, they DO still have incentive to sell your work. The Kiernan Gallery was founded by an emerging artist, and recognizes the importance of selling work; they believe that if artists are paying a submission fee, the gallery should not also take a portion of the sale. They do reserve the right to negotiate 20% in order to make a sale.

PEPPER-O-MI

I vividly remember the first piece of pizza I ate. It was Totino’s (no, they aren’t a sponsor, but they should be). I thought it was the best thing I ever ate. I was around 4 years old. I still think the little cubes of pepperoni are ingenious, and I still turn to this junk food classic when I am sick. I realize it isn’t logical to crave junk food when you’re ill, but I do. Yes, I know this runs contrary to my whole foods mantra. Deal with it; I’m only human. Sometime there is nothing like a first. I’ve eaten a lot of gourmet pizza since then, but I still have the sweetest memories of the first. This next Call is an opportunity for you to be among this site’s first artists. Take a look…

REMINDER: Detroit Print Exchange

MEAL
cartridges?

I wrote a post a while back about a report I heard that claimed we would all be printing our food in 20 years. Well, I was wrong. Apparently you can print food now thanks to Cornell Creative Machines Lab. OMG, I can’t take this. Luckily, this next Call is about printing of a much better sort. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Detroit Print Exchange for the time we cannot meet. The entry fee is only $20, and this is a golden opportunity for printmakers. Investigate for yourself…

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

CALL for ENTRIES:
the time we cannot meet

The Detroit Print Exchange is the first of (hopefully many) annual juried art collaborations. Artists are invited to submit an edition of 25 prints and in turn receive a complete portfolio of 20 prints from all 20 contributing artists.

In truth, the The Detroit Print Exchange is a chance to redefine what it means to be a young emerging artist, to prove that good things really do come in small packages, and to build connections between artists working around the country.

The Challenge is to create an edition of 25 prints in response to the words “ the time we cannot meet”. Cryptic yet straight forward the words resonate with missed opportunity and honesty. Today is there truly a time when two people cannot meet? Has technology removed time from how we interact? Explore, create and redefine.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Printmaking

DEADLINE: January 5, 2013

NOTIFICATION: January 31, 2013

ENTRY FEE: $20 for 8 to 10 images

JURY PROCESS: Participants will be selected based on a portfolio of previous work, artist statement and CV, spaces are limited.

AWARDS: The final portfolio will be exhibited in Detroit. Detroit Print Exchange will host an online Portfolio that viewers can access via the internet.

SALES: Limited edition reproductions of the final portfolio will be sold.

I have a new recipe for sweet potato poblano soup. It came in this month’s issue of Whole Living magazine. I’ll let you know how it turns out after I make it this weekend.

CALL for ENTRIES:
Gathering Clouds: The Winter Studio

Artists are intuitive, sensitive and connected to their environment. Whether you live in Alaska or California there is a shift we all feel as winter approaches. Shorter days, longer nights.
