It has been over a week since I’ve stood on my soapbox and lectured about the advantages of Art Publication. You’ve missed it…haven’t you? Okay, Okay…if you insist, I will take candy from a baby. Here goes:Art Publication is great for your art career. Most exposure is good exposure. There, that’s the short version.
Fraction Magazine has an open-call for submissions for future issues as well as their One Picture Look feature that began in May 2010. Fraction Magazine is an online photography magazine and photographic review.
Fraction Magazine was started in a little coffee shop in Albuquerque, New Mexico in March of 2008 by Joshua Spees and David Bram. In 2009, Josh got married, moved to the East Coast, and is now pursuing other photographic avenues.
Today, Fraction Magazine is edited and curated by David, and often includes guest curators and writers such as Melanie McWhorter, Mary Goodwin and Larissa Leclair.
One Picture Look is a new feature (May 2010) to Fraction Magazine.
The idea is to bring attention to the amazing work that is either found on Flickr within the Fraction Magazine Flickr Group or the work that is submitted directly to Fraction Magazine. The idea is that one photograph, will make you want to look at more.
So if you have one picture, that they just have to see, please visit the submissions page or add it to the flickr group.
The One Picture Look page will be promoted just like the rest of the magazine and will be updated every couple of weeks.
To submit your photographs for the next issue of Fraction Magazine, please send a link to your site and tell them the specific portfolio or body of work to look at. Please remember to put “submission” in the subject line of your email.
Due to the large number of submissions, they will not look at emails with attachments. Send your link to fractionsubmissions@gmail.com .
Need a little inspiration? I turn to food, and I suspect that comes as a surprise to not a one of you. I miss paella de marisco —which ceased to be an option when my husband developed an allergy to shellfish…but I digress.
Instead of turning to seafood paella–which will only make your rear end larger and, if you’re like me, leave you feeling guilty–think Spain…no, really. Check out this opportunity for an Artist Residency Opportunity in the heart of Barcelona brought to you by the art lovers and supporters at homesession.org!
Where? The flat is a modern loft situated in the center of Barcelona, just near Montjuic Park, 10 minutes walking from the historic center. The area is quiet, lively and “authentic”. There are 2 metro lines. It is a 92 square meter flat with two patios (+ 15 square meters each).
What? The idea of this residency is based on a real integration to local life: the artist shares the flat with the founders of the project: Jerome Lefaure and Olivier Collet. They receive artists for short residencies, up to one month. Of course, the artist has his own keys during his stay.
They have sets, tripods and spotlights for photography and provide support for local contacts, equipments and eventual research of performers, locations, materials. The residency is mainly dedicated to creation, but they often organize a presentation of the work, that makes for a greater interaction with the local art community.
Accomodation: Sharing a flat enables the artist to enjoy freedom as well as better integration with the local life and cultural scene. The private place for the artist is a closed alcove (5,5 Sq. m.) with a double sofa/bed, opening on the kitchen/living room. In the living room, a desk is reserved for the artist; Internet access is available in the whole flat.
Common equipment:
– broadband internet access
– kitchen, refrigerator, micro-wave, washer, oven, dining table chairs etc.
– bathroom, washing machine
– television, video, videoprojector, radio, CD player
– air conditioning / radiant floor heat
Residency as an interchange: They want the residency to be a real opportunity for the artist and are prepared to be a link toward spanish artists and the local artistic community, in terms of making possible collaborations, four-handed creations or artistic events depending on the artist’s interests. Open studio and gallery exhibitions are organized if possible during or at the end of the residency.
Conditions of the residency, fees and living expenses: Due to the limitations of the flat, they only provide residency to one artist each period. The residency is planned for a short period (maximum: one month), and it is possible for a same artist to apply for two residencies.
The do not charge any residency fees to the artists. As an interchange, they ask the artist to give them a piece of artwork at the end of the residency. The artist will also finance their own living expenses as well as the trip to Barcelona on their own.
– a resume in english, french or spanish

The thing I love most about being an artist is the creation of the work, but a close second is belonging to a community of artists. Most artists are happy to have a local group of close knit creative types with which to share, and I am overwhelmingly fortunate to have all of you. Okay, I’m tearing up more than when I chop onions, folks.
My point is…while many of us already have an artist family, we must remember that families have to grow or the lineage will end. I have a friend in NYC who is trying to expand her fold. Tryst Collective is looking for locals for a show called “BP’s Black Plague,” but never say never…send ’em your stuff because you just never know what could happen.
NYC-based arts group, the Tryst Collective, is looking for artists, photographers, sculptors, crafters, musicians, etc. who would like to be a part of a *one-night* group show – an art, music, and networking event.
This is the first installment of a series of themed Trsyt shows that will be held throughout the year. This particular show—BP’s Black Plague: a response in art and music— is centered around the reactions and responseswithin the creative community to the BP oil spill and/or our nation’s oil dependence.
Jessica Rowshandel writes, “We are still waiting for the date, but we are aiming for mid to late Sept. We are looking for local people who can get to the venue the night of the show since it’s a D-I-Y sort of thing.
“The venue is R Bar New York City, which is located at 218 Bowery Street, New York NY 10012. The event will be ticketed.
Artists and musicians are encouraged to sell their work and network -making money and new connections.
“We do not take any commission. We ask that the participants invite friends/followers because we need to pay for the space through ticket sales and more importantly, we are building a community.
“This is a very grassroots group and is held in nontraditional arts space, so participants should expect that. The venue allows us to hang work and we also have presentation and table easels. There will be a cash bar.”
If interested, please email them at: trystcollective@gmail.comwith samples of your work and a little about yourself.
As I frequently shout from the mountain top, I love portraiture. I love faces, specifically. But when I began my Psychomachia project with Arizona artist Jerry Portelli, he challenged me to limit my use of faces and to concentrate on other figurative depictions. The process started on a sour note but has ended up pretty sweet…a lemon drop, if you will.
Maybe “Figuratively Speaking,” the National Call for Entries from the Emerging Young Artist (EYA) Organization and the Village Gallery in Montgomery, AL, will be your lemon drop, too. The entry fee is a reasonable $35, and the Best of Show winner will get a solo show at the Village Gallery. You know you want the show…so go for it.
“Figuratively Speaking” is not limited to the traditional/contemporary aspects of the human forms, conditions, interactions, and abstractions of the human body. “Figuratively Speaking” includes figuration in contemporary design in terms of shapes, lines, and colors.

I find the sacred in everyday objects and appreciate the indulgence of artists that do. My house is filled with odd tidbits that have called out to me from here and there–things with which I cannot part for reasons unknown.
Peg Grady is a kindred spirit.
July marks the first month of the $2 Art Contest. The purpose of the contest was not to get rich, but to force myself to regularly review the work submitted to me by artists. Now you will get monthly Featured Artists, not quarterly or whenever the mood strikes me.
When choosing to force myself to be more diligent about posting Featured Artists, I neglected to account for how hard it would be for me to chose only one. I contemplated giving 2nd and 3rd place, but felt it somehow took away from the true winner–Peg Grady.
PEG GRADY
When I started investigating Peg Grady’s work, I was immediately drawn to her paintings and drawings that often take on the appearance of oil pastels and often incorporate a whimsy of color and typography. But once I found The Perfect Word Series, I was hooked. The work was, well, reverential…from a distance.
I noticed a statement on Grady’s site apart from her Artist Statement specifically for The Perfect Word: “An old thesaurus’s yellowed pages containing outdated phrases such as ‘apple pie order,’ ‘pretty kettle of fish’ and ‘tittle-tattle’ evoke a sense of history that delights me, sending me back to my elementary school classroom where the teacher told us of the value of Roget’s (not the dictionary style) thesaurus and how it branched off with differing shades of meaning, leading you to the perfect word.”
This led me back to the work, where I used the built-in magnifier to examine the details that tied it all together.
The simply whimsy in sacred found objects is all tied together in the simplicity ofThe Perfect Word.
Some of you may recall that I send out a questionnaire to all of my potential Featured Artists that asks a variety of questions from favorite foods to artistic influences, and I couldn’t wait to read Peg Grady’s answers to see if I really could have developed a picture of who she was based on this short series of work.
Artistic influences?Betye Saar, famous for her assemblage work, seems fitting. Robert Rauchenberg reinforced assemblage as Grady’s true love. Romare Bearden rounds it out.
Foods? Dark Chocolate and Almonds–indulgent. I would expect no less.
When asked if she liked to collaborate with others, she matter-of-factly explained that she doesn’t “play well with others. But I do run with scissors.”A woman after my own heart.
I have fallen in love with The Perfect Word series, and my heart is singing to hear that The Perfect Game series featuring a vintage book of solitaire layouts is in the works.
How did Peg Grady develop into the artist she is? Maybe it all ties back to her childhood…
“I was born in New York City where I appreciated the dinosaurs at the Museum of Natural Historymuch more than the Monets at the Modern. Finally I got older and (hopefully) wiser, became a California girl and fell in love with art.”
Thank you, Peg Grady for the reverence with which you treat the written word and for creating work that makes us think. Thank you for artwork that both celebrates and believes in the ability of the child in all of us to remember the whimsy of our childhood with the sacredness it deserves.
I love receiving personal mail. As connected and attached as I am to my BlackBerry, I still love receiving the occasional postcard. I get alot of funny mail, and most of you send me food related postcards…keep them coming.
The art of letter writing, postcard creating, and the sharing of artwork is alive and well in this Call for Entries from Guadalupe Art Dogs Gallery for Mail Art with the timely theme of Currency. AND NO ENTRY FEE. Take a look:
Guadalupe Art Dogs Gallery is located in the Old Ingram Loop artists’ colony on the banks of the Guadalupe River in Ingram, Texas, and they are calling for entries in its inaugural international Mail Art Show. The show will open on September 10th and will run through October 6. Entries must arrive no later than Saturday September 4th.
The theme of this year’s show is “Currency,” a subject on almost everyone’s mind these days. At one time or another, in one place or another, virtually every kind of object has been used as currency – coins, paper, gold nuggets, shells, goats, chocolate, brides, baseball cards, IOUs – the possibilities are endless.
Also please note that “currency” doesn’t necessarily refer to a medium of exchange. For example, events can have currency (current events); rivers can have currency ( if you want to stretch the meaning a little and make a pun) and of course there’s always currency jelly ( or is that currant?) So you get the idea, right? Take the idea of “currency” and stretch, fold, bend and mutilate it to come up with your own interpretation.
GUIDELINES: This show will be conducted in accordance with the principles that guide the Mail Art Movement worldwide. Submissions can be any shape, any size – as long as they have the appropriate postage attached. They do NOT have to be flat two dimensional works, and they do NOT have to arrive in an envelope – although of course they can be two dimensional and be sent in envelopes if that’s what the artist wants.
ENTRY FEE: There is no entry fee, and no limit on the number of pieces that can be submitted. There will be no prizes other than the “People’s Choice” awards.
DEADLINE:September 4, 2010
As with all their shows, the Mail Art show will appear online approximately two weeks after the opening, so if you can’t come to see the show in person just log on and enjoy browsing.
Entries will not be returned unless the appropriate amount of return postage is sent along with the entry and the piece is clearly labeled that it is to be returned, with your full name and address. Those entries not returned will be distributed at no cost to area hospitals, nursing homes, schools, homeless shelters, and other places where they can brighten some person’s day.
I am a night owl…I’m just wired that way. In a perfect world, I would wake up around noon and go to bed at 4 a.m. Unfortunately, I like night-time snacking too. Lately it is an irrational love of Cheetos and chocolate…but not together, I promise…although, hmmmm. Maybe the cure to my night-time snacking is to spend my nights taking photographs instead.
Here’s a great Call for Entries from Vermont Photo Space Gallery called After Dark that celebrates both high drama of the night light as well as the mysterious shadows AND offers free matting and framing. Take a look…
As the sun sets, a whole new world of photographic opportunities presents itself. Buildings, streets and time lapse take on a different light at night. But don’t stop there…
Ever hear of “Night life”? Carnivals? Animals? People? Theater? There is a voyeuristic feel to night images, the viewer senses that they are observing life from the shadows. Urban lights create high drama – colors intensify and shadows loom. In the country, things become scary and still. Is there just a hint of the sunset left? Time lapse can create fantastic swirls of lights creating abstract compositions. Show them what your camera sees “After Dark.”

No surprise…it is hard to put artists in categories. However, if I were going to force myself to do so, I would mention that some artists are very retail oriented and others just want to produce work with substance and meaning (often known only to themselves). And, as you know…it is the ultimate artists’ chicken-or-the-egg argument. Fight amongst yourselves.
I love artwork that leaves me pondering meaning and crawling into the subtle nuance of every aesthetic choice; but, a hand-bound journal with hand-cut pages and a surprise on every page is artwork that function inside the daily workings of my life. Want to sell your artwork? Check out this Open Call from Peaceful Products. They want to help you sell your art, and they don’t take commission. Yep, you heard me…they ask that you donate a portion of the proceeds to the charity of your choice. Take a Look:
Peaceful Products is an organization that is dedicated to making a difference by helping others in need. They do this by donating profit from the artwork and products sold on their site. Peaceful Products is founded by artist and autism specialist Emily Boulger.
Peaceful Products is a organization that sells artwork and handmade one of a kind products by artists from around the world. Profits from each product sold goes to a charity of our artist’s choice.

I would also like to take a moment to thank this month’s sponsor Toni’s Treehouse–a website with a fun and funny take on taking care of your family, choosing to LIVE everyday, being at least a little greener, and lots of yummy FOOD!
I am rarely more than 10 feet from my BlackBerry. I am not proud of it, but it IS a fact. I am not alone…this I know. Granted, I no longer text while driving, but sometimes it takes me 3x longer to get where I’m going because of the sheer volume of times I have to stop to email, text, tweet…and take pictures.

Fraction Magazine was started in a little coffee shop in Albuquerque, New Mexico in March of 2008 by Joshua Spees and David Bram. In 2009, Josh got married, moved to the East Coast, and is now pursuing other photographic avenues.
The idea is to bring attention to the amazing work that is either found on Flickr within the Fraction Magazine Flickr Group or the work that is submitted directly to Fraction Magazine. The idea is that one photograph, will make you want to look at more.
