The SHIRT OFF my BACK

I spent just enough time in culinary school to discover that I did not want to be a chef. The hours on my feet were going to be too late, and my chances of being a world-renowned chef that only worked days were even more remote.  I opted for the t-shirt instead. Funny enough, my experience as a gallery owner was not altogether different– lots of work and lots of late night hours.  My hats are off to both Chefs and Gallery Owners.  This Call is from a brand-spanking new gallery in Connecticut.  This could be your chance to be a part of wonderful little gem of a gallery from the very beginning.  Take a chance…

Check out this Call for Entries from the brand new Gallore Gallery in Middletown, CT for their first Summer Showcase International Exhibition.  Here’s your chance to get in on the ground floor.  Don’t let the elevator pass your floor…

BE BULGAR!

I love that more exotic foods are available in virtually any grocery store.  I live in a pretty small town, but because we have a large tourist population, the grocery store selections are a little better.  With Spring just around the corner, tabbouleh salad is calling my name.  Ten years ago, I would had to have gone in search of an ethnic or gourmet market and paid $10 for a bad boxed mix.  Now it is as simple as taking a trip to my local Food City.  Once again, my food world has intersected with my art world… this Call for Entries is a great example of new ideas in art accessibility.  No invitation to this opening is necessary.  Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Saint Spotting

FREE, but ODD

The strangest thing I’ve ever eaten is Fugu, also known as Japanese pufferfish.  What was strange was that I ate it in the USVI at the hands of a Japanese Chef who sold me on eating it BECAUSE #1 it was FREE and #2 it could kill me if prepared improperly.  No meal is worth dying for, folks; ahhh, the stupidity of being eighteen.  Well, clearly, I didn’t die, and unfortunately, I don’t really remember the taste due to my adrenaline-fueled expectation that I could, at any moment, drop dead.  In hindsight, I don’t REALLY know what I ate. Hmmm.  This next call for art may be the strangest of its sort I’ve ever seen as well–at least for an Art Exhibit.  Take a look…

Frogs’ legs are one of the better-known delicacies of French and Cantonese cuisine. They are also eaten in other regions, such as the Caribbean, Portugal, Slovenia, northwest Greece, Italy, Spain, and the Midwest southern regions of the United States.  A type of frog called the edible frog is most often used for this dish. They are often said to taste like chickenbecause of their mild flavor, with a texture most similar to chicken wings. I like them with a side cucumber-dill yogurt.  Yum.  There is no witty food/art connection today–I just love frog legs, and jumped at the opportunity. hehehe.  You cannot consume this next opportunity from Toad, at least not literally, but it does sound delicious.

CALL for ENTRIES: Supersize: Bigger is Better?

Download the About Face Prospectus!What fuels our fascination with obscene quantities and obsessive amounts? From supersized to overstuffed, from bulk to buy-one-get-one, we are in a constant quest for more, more, more; yet we decry the after-effects of over-consumption. How do artists interpret these ideas in their work? This exhibition explores the art of the supersized. The jury seeks work that tackles the absurdity of art and life on a grand-scale. From humorous depictions to critical commentary, the jury seeks work that address these issues through their scale, proportion, and witty approach.

Supersize will be installed in the spacious Mezzanine Gallery of Annmarie Sculpture Garden’s Arts Building. With over 4000 sq ft of exhibition space, moveable walls, high ceilings, tile floors, an Arakawa hanging system, Internet access, and electricity, the Mezzanine Gallery can accommodate all sizes and types of installations.

UMMYYUMMY

I am not a fan of baby talk.  I don’t like it when adults talk to children in that voice and I certain don’t like to hear grown women use that tone.  However, as an adult, I seem to have developed a Suess-ian fondness for making up words where there is no need outside of making them rhyme.  I have not excuse.  None.  And, I’m thinking that my unnecessarily made up, substitute name for fried chicken, “chicky wicky” (yes, I wish I were kidding) will not make it into the dictionary as some verbal creation inevitably do–like the name of this show.

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…
