I am frugal, or cheap, depending on your viewpoint. I tend to love for so many reason, but mainly because the weather is much cooler.  And, winter produce is much cheaper.  I love root vegetables and squash of all sorts.  Maybe I’ll take a trip to the pumpkin farm.  Pumpkin isn’t just for pies and pancakes, you know?  Try it in beef tangine instead of butternut squash. I’ll miss the fresh greens by Spring time, but that we make them taste all the better. This next call invites you to share a single image or your agricultural influence.  Make me proud…

Check out this Call for Entries for Your American Farmer Photo Contest, a FREE online photo competition from Photographer Paul Mobley, the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT), and Hoodman. There is no entry fee and LOTS of great prizes. BUT THE DEADLINE IS FRIDAY…

American Farmer
Photo Contest

Photographer Paul Mobley traveled the country documenting America’s unsung heroes of industry and agriculture in his book: “American Farmer: Portraits of the Heartland”. What began as a break from his commercial photography soon became a journey which led Mobley down a path of self-discovery with a renewal in his passion for making images.

Mobley’s work for American Farmer was recently optioned for presentation as a feature-length documentary. The film goes deep into our nation’s agricultural heartland to tell the personal stories of the indomitable men and women who literally sustain us all. Dubbed “American Farmer” by its producers, the documentary will launch followed by a national PBS broadcast.

Mobley would like you to share your experiences with the country’s beautiful agriculture, farm, farmer’s market and garden world. Capturing your favorite fall harvest scene, summer fruit stand, farmer’s market or road-side stand, share your view this country’s beautiful landscape, agriculture and harvest. Contest is open to both amateur and professional photographers from across the country.

Surprised!

Salt and pepper are the basics of all seasoning.  Given nothing else, you can still do wonders with this pair.  However, while menu-planning for an upcoming cabin vacation with my family, I have had to take sodium content into mind for my mother’s sake.  WOW!  What an eye opener.  One-half a frozen average-size pepperoni pizza (3 slices of 6) has her recommended sodium intake for 2.5 days.  I suppose that too much of a good thing really does exist.  This next call involves the basics of art…sketching.  Take a look!

Today, I miss peanut butter.  When I was pregnant, peanut butter was a wonder food.  It had just enough protein, sugar and fat to transform my mood, one tablespoon at a time.  In celebration of my in-laws 50th Anniversary, I am headed on vacation to a much warmer clime…just in time for Christmas.  You know what is not great about a warm vacation at Christmas?  Being in a bathing suit at Christmas… when I should be eating peanut butter cookies and peanut butter pie and everything else that won’t run from me.  Oh well, my pregnancy days are long over, so I’m gonna lay off the peanut butter for a couple of months.  This next Call involves a completely different kind of womb.  Take a look…

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.  As always, feel free to venture past food…

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. 

Learn more about the Persona show at the Darkroom Gallery!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.

Some foods speak for themselves and almost don’t need to be tasted.  A beautiful mound of dark chocolate makes my mouth water before I ever taste or smell it.  I can imagine the taste of ripe raspberries and blackberries by just conjuing the image in my head.  Think about the psychologically healing power of chicken soup (or in my case, junk food).  Food speaks, and so should your work.  This next Call wants art that speaks.  This could be a great year-long opportunity for you…

GALLERY STATEMENT: “Every year for 50 years the L.A. Municipal Gallery has held its ‘Open Call’ exhibit where any artist can show up with their art and an entry fee (to benefit gallery programs) and the piece is shown.  The Los Angeles Center For Digital Art decided to launch an international experiment of the same nature where the artists upload images that are printed and hung by the gallery.

Prior Snap to Grid reception at LACDA!“The hundreds of works are displayed in a grid like installation (reminiscent of postcard art shows of the 1980’s) where every work submitted is exhibited.  The usual (less than democratic) selection process where only the precious few are chosen is turned on its head in a curatorial anarchy where everyone gets to participate and the viewer is literally left to be the judge. The show represents a snapshot of a current moment in art history when digital imaging has reached the hands of the many, an age where culture belongs to the ‘mobblogers’ around the globe.

“From Thailand to Texas, amateur to academic, beautiful to banal and beyond the monumental quantity and variety of “Snap to Grid” becomes an aesthetic experience where each individual piece adds to an agglomerative effect that has a life of its own.”

CALL for ENTRIES: Collaboration

 

Learn more about Collaborations at BAG!Christo and Jeanne Claude. McCartney and Lennon.  Cookies and milk. In collaboration, sometimes a sum is greater than its individual parts.  Compelling works of art have often been produced by the meeting of two creative minds, or as a result of one artist’s exposure to the work of another.

Historically, schools of art were a breeding ground for new ideas, where artists could learn from their masters and grow from one another, bringing the large world in a little closer. To share images and ideas over distances was difficult, but expected as part of one’s training. It was simply a stepping stone to individual fame.

In the age of Flickr, Facebook, and hostyourdomain.com, artists may now share their work with the world at the touch of a button. We can choose to bridge an ocean in an instant, or to isolate our work entirely. It is entirely yours to decide. So the choice to collaborate may now be deliberate; choosing to ‘share’ can be more profound than an RSS feed, more mindful than physical proximity, and more creative than working alone.
