Lecture of the day…art publication. Food reference of the day…chocolate.  I know.  I’m sorry.  I don’t have a lot of time to say more today because I am on a chocolate and sugar-fueled high of calls, notifications, blogging copyrights, shipping and research for a new show. If you need the full lecture, type “art publication” in the search box to the right and read my previous lectures, ha. Having shortened today’s lecture, I am going to suck down another piece of chocolate and get back to work…it is a beautiful day to make art, folks.

CALL for ENTRIES: Small Works at Soo Rye

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!TELL ME RYE

I am a fan of bold flavors, but I’ve never developed a taste for caraway seeds also known as rye.  The one exception to my caraway seed rule is pumpernickel rye bread.  Maybe it is the earthy texture of the pumpernickel and the more practical everyday uses for bread that make it my exception.  This next Call is my second exception for acceptable rye.  This is a great holiday opportunity…

Check out this Call for Entries for the Small Works Holiday exhibit known as the Precious Show at the Soo Rye Art Gallery in Rye, New Hampshire.  This is clearly a sales-motivated exhibit, and we can all use a little holiday art sales.  Take a look…

I’ve never been much of a milk drinker.  So it is easy to forget how much dairy I consume. I recently had to start taking Cipro, a really strong antibiotic, to try to knock out a irritatingly persistent ear infection, and it can’t be taken with dairy products.  I’m on day 5 of a 10 regiment, and I had no idea it would make my life so complicated.  Speaking of dairy, did you know that Monterey Jack cheese was made by the Mexican Franciscan friars of Monterey, California, during the 19th century?  If you go to the opening of your solo show that you got by sending a proposal to this Call, let me know if they still make it there.  Better yet, pick some up for me…

I prefer to drink my soup.  Chowder and stew?  Give me a spoon and a bowl, but soup calls for the perfect cup.  The handle has to be big enough for me to slide my four fingers through, warming my palm against the cup.  Should be sturdy enough to keep the soup warm while I sip, but not too heavy to hold for the duration.  This next Call might give me a way to drink my soup out of a beautiful piece of art.  Trip to Louisiana anyone?

ALL HUNG EXHIBIT: A Book About Death

Why is tuna cassarole, of all things, the “go to” dish to take to a family in mourning?  I find tuna cassarole depressing, and depression is not supposed to be the end result of taking a covered dish to a family suffering loss.  You are supposed to comfort them, make their life simpler by elimating the need to cook.  I’m telling you… they throw all 14 of the tuna cassaroles in the trash.  I’m just saying that if you feel the need to every bring food to my house, I prefer soup or chocolate anything.  This next Call asks that you contemplate death…and maybe even the food that inevitably accompanies it.  Investigate…

I appreciate a mix of the unexpected with a tried and true, old school favorite.

CALL for ENTRIES: Mono No Aware

 

Click to learn more about Mono No Aware!Mono No Aware is an international film event open to any person or group of persons making work that incorporates Super8mm or 16mm film format as part of that presentation. (Expanded Cinema) In previous years, 16mm film was blended with dance performance, Super8 with live spoken word/audience involvement, & multi-projections with live jazz/musical devices. This is not a film festival for film-makers, so much as it is an film event for everyone. They believe there is magic in seeing a film print projected, a presence a poet has when reading their own work, a feeling that resonates in your chest when seeing music performed live. For these reasons they encourage live film with live additional audio/visual elements.

ELIGIBILITY: Open internationally. Dancers, Sculptors, Musicians, Theorists, Scientists, Athletes, Visual artists, everyone, AND Film-makers are encouraged to submit.
