CALL for ENTRIES: Fall Into Maritime

Posted on June 6, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

FAN-taff-STIC

I love salt water taffy. I love the taste and the colors and the main street feel of the shops that allow you to look on as the taffy is hand-crafted. Funny enough, most of the towns that conjure images of salt water taffy for me are no where near the coast. Odd. I wonder if the town from which this next Call hails has a salt water taffy shop? If you get into the show, let me know.

Check out this Call for Entries from The Gallery at Firehouse Square in New London, Connecticut for the Fall into Maritime exhibit. Enter up to 10 images for only $25 and only 35% commission. Can’t ask for more…

CALL for ENTRIES: Visions in Clay 2011

Posted on May 29, 2011May 29, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

O-LIVE you!

I have an unnatural love of olives. Stuff them with jalepenos, blue cheese or even the lowly pimento… I don’t care. I love olives so much I have a beautiful little dish I bought from a ceramics show specifically for olives shaped like a lovely little trough that prevents my having to chase olives all over my plate. One problem… the dish is no longer big enough. If you make it to the opening for this next Call, please find a new olive solution for me while you’re perusing the BEST in clay work, function or not. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Art of the Plains 2011

Posted on May 22, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

BEIGE NO LONGER

When people hear “American Food” they think of a homogenous buffet of beige food, but American food is a great quilt of influences from around the world. For example, New Mexican Cuisine is also very different than the preferred Tex-Mex style of Mexican-American food in Texas and Arizona. One of its most defining characteristics is the dominance of the New Mexican chile—in red and green varieties, depending on the stage of ripeness when picked. Other distinctive elements include blue corn, the stacked enchilada, and sopapillas into which honey is added moments before eating. Eat a little for me at the opening of this next show…

Check out this Call for Entries from the American Plains Artists in Las Cruces, New Mexico for Art of the Plains 2011. All traditional media (no photography or computer generated) considered. The entry fee is $25 (plus membership), and the deadline for digital entries is June 4th. I have NEVER seen this many awards for one show EVER…

CALL for ENTRIES: Art of the Plains 2011

The American Plains Artists announce a call to artists for a juried exhibition, September 8 – October 30, 2011 at the New Mexico Farm & Ranch Heritage Museum, Las Cruces, NM.

Sculpture would be of moderate size and not exceed 100 pounds. Artwork must represent the theme of the show: American Plains.

DEADLINE: June 4, 2011 for digital entries.

JUROR: New Mexican cowboy artist Robert “SHOOFLY” Shufelt has created graphite drawings that have become an important thread in the fabric of Western Art, earning world wide recognition. His work illuminates the bare bones of an artist’s craft and portrays the physical evidence of his perception. They are celebrations of a dreamer who has allowed his dream to become reality with all its grit and honesty, yet he still finds the work endlessly nteresting and satisfying. He has an artist’s vision of cowboys as they can only be around another cowboy, unposed and unself-conscious. They are men who practice their vision of excellence in whatever they do, leaving it up to the rest of us to determine whether they’re working or playing. These disciples of the “cowboy way” are Shoofly’s top hands and his work is forever honored by their friendship.

AWARDS:

Best of Show $2,000.00

1st Place Award $1,000
2nd Place Award $750
3rd Place Award $500
Clyde Heron Award $250
Plainsman Award $250
Golden Spur Award $250
Arrowhead Award $250
Best Plains Life $200
Best Plains Transportation $200

These are two new awards to encourage diversity of subject matter in artwork. These two awards will change yearly: New Mexico Award – The Point of My Pencil written and autographed by Robert “Shoofly” Shufelt and a one-year subscription to New Mexico Magazine.

Director’s Award – One-year Gift Subscription to Western Art & Architecture Magazine; Award of Excellence –a one-year subscription to Western Art & Architecture given by Western Art & Architecture – Ribbons presented by American Plains Artists; Publisher’s Award of Excellence – Half Page Ad sponsored by Art of the West $1,780.00 value; Publisher’s Award of Excellence – Artist’s Focus Award sponsored by Western Art Collector $2,900.00 value; Publisher’s Award of Excellence – Full Page Ad sponsored by Southwest Art $3,125.00 value; Publisher’s Award of Excellence – Full Page Ad sponsored by Western Art & Architecture $4,950.00 value; Artist’s Retreat Award – given by Our Heritage Guest Ranch, Jean Norman, Owner, Crawford, NE $600.00 value; Best Framing Award – given by Larson-Juhl & Mark Nichols, Dallas, TX – $150.00 Gift Certificate; and Fine Print Award – given by Fine Print Imaging, Fort Collins, CO $150. 00 Gift Certificate.

SALES: APA sales commission of 25% will apply.

CALL for ENTRIES: A Sense of Place

Posted on May 11, 2011May 11, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

NUTS for YOU!

I believe that food has a sense of place. When you eat cotton candy, don’t you think of going to the fair? When I taste boiled peanuts (Yes, Virginia, they do exist), I am instantly transported to South Carolina. You have associations of your own, no doubt. This Call is named Sense of Place, but it isn’t a theme. Maybe it comes from the enormous sense of place felt even through photographs of this beautiful gallery space. Inspired yet?

Check out this Call for Entries from the Gertrude Herbert Institute of Art in Augusta, GA for the 2011 National Juried Exhbition: A Sense of Place. The entry fee is low, and once again, the juror is well-documented and happens to be a printmaker, although many media are embraced. This looks like a winner…

CALL for ENTRIES: Outdoor Sculpture

Posted on May 9, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

PICK YOUR BRAIN

Sometimes you have to eat outside your comfort zone. I’m not suggesting you all go out and order brains to go with your eggs at the diner, but I am asking you to live a little. Ordering food from a menu that you may not like is not earth shattering. There ARE worse things. Expand your palate. You would be amazed at the adrenaline rush I get from discovering a new taste or food experience. This Call will be a challenge for a few of you closet sculptors out there. Just take a deep breath and order the brains…

CALL for ENTRIES: 19th Annual Miniature Show

Posted on March 24, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

WHERE’S
THE
CACAO?

Clearly, whomever coined the phrase less is more could not have been referring to any form of chocolate. I’ve heard of moderation. I understand moderation. I have experimented with moderation. I do, begrudgingly, limit my consumption of lots and lots of things, from alcohol to lard and many processed foods–just not chocolate. This next call for miniature art entries subscribes to the theory that less is more. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Parklane Gallery for the 19th Annual International Juried Miniature Show. And this year there is a new category–3 dimensional art!

CALL for ENTRIES:
19th Annual International Juried Miniature Show

Parklane Gallery in Kirkland, WA welcomes miniature artists from across the country and around the world to enter their 19th Annual International Miniature Show, May 3 – June 5.

ELIGIBILITY: Entries are admitted to the show following strict adherence to the international definition of miniature art:

1. Miniature paintings and sculptures are fine art on a small scale with minute attention to detail which can be enlarged or withstand close inspection without revealing any faults.

2. A representational subject should be no larger than 1/6th of its actual size. Subjects too small for portrayal in 1/6th or smaller than their actual size, may meet the spirit of a miniature if the work meets the above definition of miniature art. Non-representational work such as abstracts or surrealism may meet the spirit of a miniature if all other factors in the definition of a miniature are met.

3. Image size not to exceed 25 square inches (161cm). Sculptures may not exceed 8 inches (20.5cm) in any dimension, including the base.

Miniature Sculpture by Dalton Ghetti — Don't you just LOVE the miniature sculpture by Dalton Ghetti? He is not associated with this show. Ghetti is just one of my favorites.
