CALL for SUBMISSIONS: All Hung Art Blizzard

Posted on December 18, 2010November 6, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

BLIZZARDY

As I sit and compose this post today, I have been watching it snow for hours. All day yesterday and today it has been the Tennessee equivalent of a blizzard. I am warmed by the idea that chili awaits me for dinner along with a snowman cupcake for dessert. This next call involves an entirely different kind of blizzard.

Check out this Call for Submissions to the Art Blizzard, an all-hung show whose proceeds go to support the art galleries at State University of New York (SUNY). If you need a resume builder, here’s an all hung show in New York. In addition to adding to your resume, you get to support the arts and get a little online publicity to boot. Take a look!

CALL for Submissions: Art Blizzard

Art Blizzard is a non-juried show inviting participants nationally and internationally to donate five 5 x 5 inch works on paper in support of the Galleries. The title of the exhibit envisions a blizzard of artwork in lieu of snow. All donated artwork will remain on sale at the online Marketplace. The art will be installed in the Bertha V.B. Lederer Gallery and posted in the Art Blizzard online gallery. Donations of $20 can made on site or online and the donor shall receive a work of their choice.

ABOUT THE GALLERIES: The Bertha V.B. Lederer Gallery in William A. Brodie Hall and the Lockhart Gallery on Main Street present both contemporary and historic rotating exhibitions, including works by local, regional and national artists, and by faculty and student artists.

The Bridge Gallery, a unique space bridging two wings of Brodie Hall, exhibits student work. Geneseo’s tradition of interweaving liberal and professional education began in 1867, when the state legislature passed an act authorizing the location of a “normal” (or teacher training) school.

In 1871, Geneseo welcomed its first students to the Wadsworth Normal and Training School, offering instruction to would-be teachers. Geneseo became an official campus of the State University of New York in 1948. Geneseo enrolls more than 5,000 students in undergraduate and graduate programs. Geneseo is located in Geneseo, NY, about 30 minutes south of Rochester, NY, 90 minutes east of Syracuse and 60 minutes west from Buffalo. continues below

CALL for ENTRIES: Graphic Design for a Cure

Posted on December 8, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

PINK ICING
on the CAKE!

This time of year is often accompanied by the primal urge to do something for others. I wish we could find that recipe to cook up on a more regular basis, don’t you? Check out the cookies from Red Riding Hood Edibles. Most of the women in my family have been affected by cancer in one form or the other. This next Call gives me an opportunity to cook up a little something to give back.

Check out this Call for Entries for the Poster Contest to support the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. There is no entry fee, and if your design is chosen, your poster will be plastered all over NYC. Plus, you’ll know that you helped just a little in the Race for the Cure for breast cancer. Take a look…

CALL for Entries: Run Breast Cancer out of Town

One in every eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime, which means that whether it’s a mother, daughter, sister, wife, colleague, or neighbor, chances are you will know someone who’s had to battle the disease.

Susan G. Komen for the Cure is the global leader in the fight against breast cancer, working to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures. The Greater New York City Affiliate is #1 in fundraising and grants given out of the entire Komen network of 125 Affiliates worldwide.

Now you have a chance to make a difference. Using your skills, you can join the fight to Run Breast Cancer Out of Town by submitting a concept for the 2011 Susan G. Komen New York City Race for the Cure campaign.

It’s simple.

Just follow the guidelines & your artwork could be seen all over New York City as part of next year’s Race campaign.

MEDIA: Create an amazingly eye-catching piece of artwork incorporating the words, “RUN BREAST CANCER OUT OF TOWN.”

Include New York City in your artwork. The city itself is one of the things that sets this Race apart, and they like to show it off. It doesn’t have to be the skyline, but be sure the art lets everyone know that they’re in the Big Apple.

Create an original piece of artwork that can be adapted to various proportions and sizes. Sometimes we may need something as small as a postcard and other times we may be on the Jumbotron at Macy’s. Think flexibility when designing your artwork.

COLOR: Pink is THE color. It is the universal color for breast cancer and should be a part of the color scheme. BUT, feel free to mix in other colors. The pinks used in their logo are Pantone 227 and 232.

FORMAT: Illustrator is the preferred application because vector art is the easiest to manipulate, but if you need to create your art using a different program or the old-fashioned way, by hand, then make sure that you create something that can be adapted to both vertical and horizontal formats (mainly vertical) and it must be at least 600 dpi at 8.5” x 11”.

Remember that they are going to need to add logos and some copy. Please include your name, address, telephone number and email address with your emailed entry.

DEADLINE: December 31, 2010. Please email your submission to vcalhoun@komennyc.org. Low resolution is best for emailing. If your artwork is selected they will require the high resolution version at that point.

RIGHTS: Contest participants are required to assign their interests in the artwork to the Greater New York City Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure as a condition to participation. Download the Assignment of Rights Form Please note that you must include an executed assignment form with your submission. Download the assignment form. A PDF or fax (212-560-9598) is fine.

PRIZES: $500 cash award, a copy of the final printed poster, your profile on the Komen Greater NYC website, and two free registrations in the Komen New York City Race for the Cure®

For the details, please visit the Susan G Komen website!

CALL for ENTRIES: Picturing Life as a Woman

Posted on December 7, 2010December 7, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

POTATO SPLAT

History has never been my favorite subject. However, I recognize how important a sense of history is in our everyday lives. Everytime I make potato pancakes …and inevitably burn, mangle or drop them …I smile knowing Julia Child got there before me. This next Call gives you a reason and purpose to reflect upon your history…at least about half of you.

Check out this Call for Entries from the MPLS Photo Center for Picturing Life as a Woman. Submissions are limited only by your imagination. With the holidays rapidly approaching, our lives are ripe with subject matter. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Picturing Life as a Woman

Women have been actively involved with photography since the medium’s inception in 1839. The barriers to their participation were lower than in the other arts, and recognition often came faster. Yet women and their photographs have not been as visible as they should have been in view of their numbers and past influence. Only in fairly recent exhibitions and critical writings have women’s work in photography received due consideration.

Diane Arbus, Roni Horn, Nan Goldin, Cindy Sherman, Kiki Smith and thousands more women use their cameras as instruments of revelation – often about themselves. In the process they challenge assumptions about what it means to be and be seen.

ELIGIBILITY: This International Call for Entry invites women from around the world to submit photographs that demonstrate a smart, critical take on women with cameras in this day of a more open and subtle notion of gendered identity.

Submissions are only limited by your imagination and may cover a broad range of challenging, personal, emotional, and political issues facing women today. Their work-life, home, family, friends, relationships, life partners, homosexual, heterosexual, politics, equal rights, stereotypes, causes, roles and wishes.

DEADLINE: January 24th, 2011

NOTIFICATION: January 30th, 2011

ENTRY FEE: $35 for the first 5 images, $10 each additional

AWARDS: First Place – $400, Second Place – $300, Third Place – $200, Honorable Mentions(3) – $100

JUROR: Christina Chang, Assistant Curator, Wiesman Art Museum

VALUE MENU

I like fast food as much as the next girl. But too much of anything can be bad for you. And just sometimes, I would rather the question be “chicken or fish?” instead of “do you want fries with that?” Open calls are a little more like table service while themed shows are a bit like going through the drive-thru–I love them both. Check out this next call …chicken or fish?

Check out this Open Call for Artists Proposals for the upcoming season at Space 237. The entry fee is only $20 for a full year of shows, and they consider ALL media, even performance art. Don’t miss out on this opportunity!

SALES: The gallery takes a 40% commission. All work must be for sale.

ELIGIBILITY: Must be 18 yrs or older.

ABOUT SPACE 237: Space 237 is a place where both artist and art enthusiast can interact and have an impact on what they may ultimately become, while reflecting upon the times and attitudes, causes and concerns that often require the peculiarly sensitive eye of the artist to synthesize and define in ways foreign to most of us.

Space 237 is creating an art environment dedicated to all forms of expression unfettered by concerns of acceptability to those who would otherwise feel constrained to prefer only the viewer’s status quo. A place where art, music, “performance”, film and video will enhance and expand the viewer’s consciousness with sights and sounds resulting in a total immersion in the many expressions of the creative process. Space 237 exists to encourage the next generation aspiring artists.
