Posted on August 4, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

YOUR SUNDAE
OVERFLOWETH!

I heard from a couple of you that you made it into The Flaneur! And, so many of you loved the Cantaker Magazine call that I couldn’t resist promoting another art publishing opportunity. If art publication is the cherry on your sundae, then multiple publishing opportunities has to be the nuts and syrup!

This Call for Entries from Art Buzz Publishing offers you a chance to have your work published in a beautiful 10″ x 10″ book that is distributed to art dealers in New York (including NYC), California (including LA & San Francisco), Sarasota, Naples & Miami in Florida, Santa Fe, New Mexico, New Orleans, Louisiana, Washington DC, Pennsylvania, The Netherlands, Russia, the United Kingdom (including London), Paris and more! Don’t miss a single chance. Make sure you Enter today!

CALL FOR ENTRIES: Art Buzz!

Art Buzz Publishing, founded in 2007, offers an alternative to mainstream art publications and a way for lesser known and undiscovered visual artists to showcase their work to an international audience.

The annual Art Buzz fine art search seeks passionate emerging and mid-career visual artists throughout the world. Artists that are awarded with inclusion in the book, are chosen solely on the merits of their work—not their resume, background, biography, etc. Unlike many other publications, artists can not buy their way into this book.

Art Buzz, the book, is an annual, full-color, fine quality, large (10″ x 10″) format, hardcover “coffee table” publication that is scheduled for release in January of each year with a vigorous distribution plan targeted directly to the International Fine Art Community.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all visual artists – worldwide – 18 years of age or older. All the various mediums will be accepted such as: painting (oils & acrylics, etc.), drawing, graphic art, photography (includes digital), mixed media, fiber, print making, sculpture, glass, metal, pottery, jewelry, etc. If you wish to enter two different mediums (ex. oils and mixed media, or sculpture and jewelry, etc.), you are required to submit an entry form and fee for each particular medium you enter.

SUBMISSIONS: Artwork images may be submitted by 35mm slides (or 21/4” or 4″ x 5″ transparencies), digital files (preferred) or photographs up to 8″ x 10″. All artwork images should be clearly and neatly labeled with the artist’s name, title of work, medium and dimensions. The same information should also be listed clearly on the entry form.

SLIDES: Artist slides should be 35mm (or transparencies 21/4” or 4″ x 5″). All slides should be labeled with artist’s name, title of work, medium, dimensions and an arrow pointing to the slide top. Visit the full call for slide submission guidelines.

DIGITAL SUBMISSION: Digital artwork image files will be accepted on CD (NO DVDs please) and should be readable by a Mac and named in conjunction with the actual artwork title. Visit the full call for digital submission guidelines.

NOTIFICATION: All artists will be notified of acceptance or non-acceptance via EMAIL.

ENTRY FEE: The entry fee for up to three (3) slides (or transparencies), digital images or photographs is $35.00.

DEADLINE: Postmarked by September 30, 2010.

On a personal note, my readers know that I try to ensure that none of the calls I list are scams or thinly-disguised money-making schemes. This IS NOT vanity publishing and DOES appear to be a legitimately-distributed fine art book.

CALL for ENTRIES: Found Object TRASH ART

Posted on August 2, 2010August 2, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

NOT TRASH…JUST ART

I love found object art almost as much as I love crock pot creations made from leftovers. Many emerging (not starving) artists struggle with not having the cash to participate in traditional media like oil painting. Found-object assemblage could be the solution!

Here’s a great call from Monmouth Museum for Art from Found Objects, but you have to hurry…both postmarked and emailed entries must be received by August 6, 2010. But look on the bright side…the materials are probably already laying around your house!

CALL FOR ENTRIES:
Art From Found Objects: A Juried Exhibition

Museum Statement: This exhibition focuses on artwork created from the undisguised, but often modified, use of common found objects that are not normally considered art, often because they already have a non-art function. Found art derives its identity as “Art” from the designation placed upon it by the artist. “Trash Art” is included in this exhibition as works are primarily comprised from components that have been discarded and then found. 75 % of the media used to create works for this exhibition must be from either discarded, reusable or found objects.

Juror: The juror is Harriet Taub, Executive Director, Materials for the Arts (of Cultural Affairs., NYC Department)

Eligibility: Open to all artists world-wide age 18 and over. All artwork entered must be original creations by the artist and must have been completed within in the last five years.

Submission Guidelines: Submissions are limited to a maximum of TWO pieces. Acceptance into the exhibition is not guaranteed with entry. The Monmouth Museum reserves the right to reject work delivered at the time of the exhibition that is not the artist’s accepted work. Selected artwork must be wired, framed (if media applicable) and ready to hang (no saw-tooth hangers). Artwork must be less than 7 feet in height and able to fit through a standard door. Pedestals must be provided by the artist for all sculpture entries. Entered and accepted work cannot be substituted and all work must be available for the duration of the exhibition.

Submission Fees: Monmouth Museum Members: FREE (see membership form at www.monmouthmuseum.org); Non-members: $20 per piece entered (limit: 2 pieces).

Digital Submission Specifcations: DO NOT submit more than 2 images, unless work is three-dimensional (maximum three images per sculpture). Artists are requested to submit digital images in JPEG format either via email or on a CD. See prospectus for full guidelines.

Artist Statement: Include a statement (not more than 1 page) on the body of work submitted. Explain your choice of media, artistic vision, process, subject matter, training, influences, etc.

Mailing Submissions: Mail payment, CD, image list, application, artist statement and one SASE for return of the CD to:

The Monmouth Museum, P.O. Box 359, Lincroft, NJ 07738

Email Submissions: Email your application, images, statement and image list as attachments to cclark@monmouthmuseum.org.

DEADLINE: August 6, 2010

For full details, please see the Propectus.

CALL for ENTRIES: Art to Die For

Posted on July 30, 2010July 30, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

ART OF DEATH

I avoid all talk of death and mortality, in general. My fondest hope is that we I finally slow down long enough to die…instead of a wake or funeral, my loved ones will plan an elaborate seven course meal for those nearest and dearest to my heart (and stomach).

I have been avoiding all acknowledgment of the aging process when at all possible. However, the subject has started to creep into my work occasionally…we’ll call it a PREMATURE middle-aged crisis. Here’s a great call for entries from Gallery 5 in Richmond, Virgina called Momento Mori that explores how you guys are approaching the subject of death and mortality in your work. Check it out…

Call for Entries: Memento Mori

Gallery5 is now accepting proposals and visual submissions for Momento Mori, an exhibition that considers death and ephemerality in the modern era. The work assembled in this all media show will look at how artists are confronting these issues today and consider impermanence in cotemporary culture.

Posted on July 28, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

LOTS OF CALLS!

Many mallowmars ago, I swore off lists on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com. You guys didn’t like reading them, and I didn’t like writing them. We’re both happier now. However…

I received a group of Calls for Entries (none of them regional) all from the same organization, the Arts & Culture Alliance of Greater Knoxville (TN). I have entered two of the four shows before and was juried into both. I like couldn’t pass on the opportunity for you, but I also didn’t want to get the email suggesting I’m playing favorites by covering the same gallery 4 times in a couple of weeks. My solution? Here are four of the Calls for Art Entries in abbreviated fashion:

CALL for ENTRIES: The Map as Art

Posted on July 26, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

ART ON THE GO

In our mobile world, it seems that all of life revolves around fast food, GPS and mobile phones. Maps have become a rarely used–and lately a little understood–artform.

When I think of maps as an artform, I think of the fantastical maps of Canadian Artist Shane Watt. (Ironic considering the call is limited to US Artists). So, I was really excited to find this Call for Entries from Sebastopol Center for the Arts celebrating the Map as Art.

CALL FOR ENTRIES: Mapworks

Sebastopol Center for the Arts invites artists living in the United States to submit work to Mapworks: the Map as Art. SCA is looking for art which references maps and mapmaking.

This may be done directly or indirectly, metaphorically, or conceptually. The terrain may be (but is not limited to) geographic, psychological, political, historical, cultural, mathematical, imaginary, or personal.

All media is acceptable, including installation. Video and film should be submitted as a DVD in loops no longer than 4 minutes; selected artists will need to supply their own equipment for display.

JUROR: Kim Anno is a painter, bookmaker, collaborator and Professor and Chair of Painting, at the California College of the Arts, San Francisco. Her advocacy of the arts has enjoined her talents as curator, artist-in-residence, juror, lecturer, and interviewer. In addition, her diverse practice has led her into important collaborations with writers, visual and performance artists.

DEADLINE: Hand-delivered entries will be accepted at SCA on Monday, August 30, between 3 and 6 pm. Entries by jpegs on CD must arrive by 5 pm, on or by that date. Please see prospectus for complete guidelines.

ENTRY FEES:

SCA members, $10 per entry or 3 entries for $25 (membership is $40 annually).

Nonmembers, $15 per entry, or 3 entries for $40. Maximum, 3 entries per artist.

AWARDS:

$200 Best of Show

$50 Coordinators Award & Merit Awards

CALL for ENTRIES: 7 Deadly Sins in Miami

Posted on July 25, 2010October 20, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

SINFUL…
Like Chocolate

I never cease to be amazed at how often I trip across artist opportunities when on a completely different mission to find source or inspiration material for my own work. While searching for some reference material to shoot my last piece “Greed” for the series Pyschomachia that I’ve been working on with Arizona Artist Jerry Portelli, I tripped across this great call for the Seven Deadly Sins from Miami’s Bakehouse Art Complex.

Call for Entries: ¡Sin!

A national juried exhibition of original work inspired by a traditional concept of human transgressions. Lust, envy, gluttony, sloth, greed, wrath and pride have had an enormous impact on the moral compass of the modern world. With many different interpretations and understandings, each individual sin has been explored and exposed numerous times.

The Bakehouse Art Complex located in the Wynwood Arts District, Miami FL is announcing a Call to Artists for ¡SIN! to be on view during the world renowned art fair Art Basel Miami 2010.

In its 2,600 square foot gallery, the artists, chosen by a reputable panel of curators, will display their works that are directly related to one of the deadly sins.

Each of the seven sins is explored, from their origins and nature, their opposing virtue, and their corresponding punishment through a variety of media and styles from across the country.

Applicants will have the opportunity to present their work to a highly distinguished panel of jurors consisting of Museum and respected Art Professionals from Miami.

Each juror has chosen a specific sin, which they will individually curate. Jury panel is listed below. All Media Welcome.

CALL for ENTRIES: Gender Definition

Posted on July 19, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

I am a product of a Southern upbringing and all the loveliness–and baggage–that goes with it. As a woman in the South, we are often expected to be in charge in the boardroom, have dinner on the table by 7…and do it all in heels and pearls.

Gender issues have been the subject of art for as long as art has been a subject. “Girl, Please!” is a Call for Entries from the Woman Made Gallery in Chicago and is a great exhibit opportunity to re-examine gender issues from a slightly different perspective.

Take a look…

Call for Entries:
Girl, Please!

Exhibition Dates: November 5 – December 23, 2010

“We are all born naked, the rest is just drag” -Rupaul

Gender is a performance, an act that is perpetuated and maintained by societal norms and expectations, but how, and to what extent does it define us? “Girl, Please!” seeks to push and transcend the definition of gender while also exploring its relation to individual character amongst collective expectations. Bearing in mind Rupaul’s statement, drag in this case is not disco, but rather an illustration of feminity and masculinity in shades of grey.

Open to all genders! Artwork in all media may not exceed 72” horizontally, frame included. Please include an artist statement and a $30 entry fee.

Online Entries Submit jpgs of up to three of your works on our website.

Mailed Entries Mail slides or cd with images of three of your works, completed entry form, and a $30 entry fee to Woman Made Gallery, 685 N. Milwaukee Ave., Chicago, IL 60642.

Jurors: Kristen Carter and Emanuel Aguilar

Kristen Carter is WMG’s Gallery Coordinator. She is a graduate from DePaul University, and has a BA in History of Art and Architecture with a minor in Studio Art, in addition to studying Art History and Fine Art in Florence, Italy. Carter is a Ph.D candidate in Art History at the University of British Columbia as of September 2010. She is also a member of the Keeper Team for ArtSlant Chicago where she writes monthly reviews about art exhibitions in Chicago, and writes for the online art magazine, Jettison.

Emanuel Aguilar is assisting Woman Made Gallery with its exhibition programs. In addition he volunteers his marketing skills to the organization. He is a Fine Arts Major at Columbia College with concentration in Identity Politics and a Minor in Marketing, and he studied in Florence, Italy at the Lorenzo De Medici University. Aguilar works for Chicago’s Jean Albano Gallery and A & D Gallery. He has curated several exhibitions, and helped found the online arts magazine, Jettison.

Entry Deadline: August 11, 2010
