People in
GINGERBREAD HOUSES…

I am too lazy to build a gingerbread house from scratch. I find it far more entertaining to buy a kit and then malign it with creativity, often inedible. Yep, I also latch hook horns onto puppies and add glitter to my Van Gogh paint-by-number masterpieces. Kits don’t have to be restrictive; I find them inspirational. This next Call wants you to be inspired by 2.5 pounds of mystery materials. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for The Mystery Build Project. Featured Artist Terri Lloyd made me aware of this one. I love projects that get my creative juices flowing again. The best part of this one? You get to enter the contest, but KEEP the resulting work. Investigate this one…

CALL for ENTRIES: Nature Undisturbed 2012

Posted on November 25, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

BOTTOMS UP

Call me closed minded, but there are somethings that I am not interested in eating. Nature is in my face here in the Great Smoky Mountains, and we eat local honey for its ability to help reduce our allergies. However, I am not drinking poison ivy tea everyday for 6 weeks to reduce my chance of breaking out in a rash. People do it. I went on a guided hike and listened to my naturalist explain the ritual to me. Call me crazy, but you shouldn’t eat anything whose name starts with “poison”. Some things ought not be disturbed. This Call for Entries is proof that others think the same. Read on…

Check out this Call for Entries from Dogwood Gallery for the 4th showing of Nature, Undisturbed. Here’s a chance to show your work and help out nature conservation at the same time. Bonus…last year they sold a significant portion of the work! Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Love/Hate

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

WHINE, wine,
WHINE

I love red wine, but it hates me. My mom feels that way about cucumbers. My kid feels that way about cheese. If the cliche “we always hurt the ones we love” is true for food, it always hurts the one by whom it is loved. It is circuitous. This next Call wants your take on the love and hate of it all. Takers anyone?

Check out this Call for Entries for Love/Hate, a group show, at the Lana Santorelli Gallery in Hoboken, NJ! If you don’t have entries for this show, don’t worry… you can also answer their open call–$20 for up to 20 images. You can’t beat the price…

REMINDER: The Built Environment

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

GLORIOUS
GÂTEAUX!

Build it, and I will eat. I stand in awe of pastry chefs. Most of the ones I know are delightfully batty (industry rumor is that the flour makes you a little off center). I love that their creations are often part art, part architechture. If you don’t think how something looks affects how it tastes, you are clearly eating ugly food. This next Call wants to see the built environment that inspires you. But HURRY, the deadline is fast approaching…

Check out this Call for Entries from Darkroom Gallery in Vermont called The Built Environment. Enter your work for as little as $20. Don’t forget Darkroom offers free framing & matting on accepted work!

* Editor’s Note: You guys always knock it out of the park with this gallery. Please make sure that you tell them that you found the show on Art & Art Deadlines so they know that all the talent is here at AAAD.

CALL FOR ENTRIES:
The Built Environment

Images that capture a vision of the man made world around us.

We’ve been documenting the built environment since the beginnings of photography. It’s natural – our lives are entwined with and dependent upon structures of all kinds. Let us examine the genius designs, abundant materials both found and fabricated, engineering feats, beauty and function, of our constructed environments. Technical mastery has much to do with a great architectural photograph, but also an understanding of the architect’s vision, and/or the humanity that invigorates and utilizes its spaces.

Whether a skyscraper or a shed, chasm span or walking bridge, from convenience store to industrial complex, public or personal (heck, an outhouse is a pertinent structure), and even the remains of such, Darkroom Gallery is looking forward to featuring your built environments.

JUROR: With an engineering degree from Trinity College (Dublin) and an Architect/Author father (Raymond McGrath), Norman McGrath was primed for educated view of his subject. He has been photographing architecture and interiors for decades, capturing the work of major architects and designers and their well-known works. His images have been featured in the foremost architectural publications, as well as his popular book, “Photographing Buildings Inside Out”. The American Institute of Architects selected McGrath for its Institute Honor award. McGrath continues to author and co-author books illustrated with architectural photography (“Manhattan Skyscrapers”, “Skyscraper Rivals”, and New York’s Pennsylvania Station”) as well as educate and inspire students of photography at the Maine Photographic Workshops, the Palm Beach Photo Workshops, and the Calumet Institute of the University of Maryland.

CALL for ENTRIES: Peace Arch

Posted on November 20, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

A PEACE of CHEESE

Peace DOES have a flavor. In my house the flavor of peace is macaroni and cheese for my kid with eggs benedict for me and occasional pumpkin pancakes to seal the deal for my husband. We all have a price, and food is always the answer in my house. THAT explains why the sizes in my closet range a 5 size span, ha. This next Call is peaceful or full of peace or built on peace. I could write puns for another few lines, but I digress. Take a look for yourself…

HUMBLE PIE

There is more to San Francisco cuisine than Rice-A-Roni. The last time I used the rice/San Francisco food reference, I got more than a few emails from readers that thought it was a bit on the shallow side. My apologies. San Francisco is noted for being home to some of the best restaurants in the US, like Perbacco (no, they are not a sponsor). So, if you find yourself looking for a dinner reservation before the opening of the show for this Call, consider it recommended. Next…

CALL for ENTRIES: The Art of Rebellion

Posted on November 19, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

FOOD FIGHT

We all have a responsibility to know how our food ends up on our plates. I’ve seen the slaughter videos (horrifying BTW), and I still eat beef. I have witnessed a chicken lose his head (disturbing), and I still eat chicken. But I have to say, I’m not cooking live lobster or crab. My husband is allergic to shellfish, so it doesn’t come up all that often, but I’m not going to fight my food. Lobsters and crab have a documented history of fighting the cooking process. Not this girl. Thanks, but no. This next Call is looking for your brand of rebellion. Lobsters and crabs are not eligible to apply…

Check out this Call for Entries for The Art of Rebellion from Gowanus Print Lab in Brooklyn, NY! Except for the rare “no entry fee” opportunity, entry fees don’t get cheaper than $5 for 5 images. The only catch is that you have to be a student. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: The Art of Rebellion

2011 has been a year of rebellion. This year has seen long-standing monarchs overthrown in Egypt and Libya and mass protests for calling change in the economic-political power structure in Europe and the United States, most notably in Occupy Wall Street.

Dissent at this level has not been seen since the late 1960’s, where protesters developed both nonviolent and more radical protest techniques that are still used in today’s struggles.

Young people in particular are standing up and using their voice, and in times of social turmoil and political upheaval art can be used as a powerful and emotional communicative tool.

ELIGIBILITY:
Open to currently enrolled students

MEDIA: The exhibition will include a variety of mediums used to convey political messages, such as street art, fashion, photography and poster design. All political view points are encouraged to submit.

DEADLINE:
November 28, 2011

ENTRY FEE:
$5 submission fee payable via Paypal for up to 5 images

SCARY,
FURRY FOOD

Sometimes you just have to eat it. Food can be scary AND wonderful. You will never know until you eat it. Someone had to eat the first kiwi fruit, the first coconut, and the first peanut. Be brave. This next Call takes a little bravery too. More than a few of you out there are a touch jaded, and I will grant that many of you have been burned and have good reason. I just want you to remember that sometimes, just sometimes, you have to be brave…

Check out this Call for Entries for the Emergent Artist Award, conducted in partnership with the Alliance Française of Dubai, a French cultural organization.

PAINT
my PIE!

If food were a mural, I think it would be a giant, thin-crust pizza. You can put anything into it or seperate it into sections. It is nutrionally dense and can certainly say something about the artist that creates it. The thin-crust part? Well, in both art and pizza, I think it is about the toppings, not what they’re on. This next Call wants your mural ideas (pizza or non-pizza related) and more. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the PAC Gallery (Cincinnati, OH)! Don’t miss this chance to win a solo ort 2-man show. This is an unusual way to get a show, but I think that makes it worth at least a look. How ’bout you?
