I get a lot of crap about eating gluten free.  I don’t preach it to others, so I simply don’t get the fascination.  I have FB “friends” that mock me, and even my mother enjoys the occasional jab.  What I eat has suddenly become some sort of politicized issue.  Don’t we have better things to politicize, people?  Spend your creative energy making a political statement with actual impact with this next call.  Take a look…

We rarely eat in my dining room.  We most often eat our cordon bleu and asparagus in front of the dumb tube.  In fact, we do almost everything in the livingroom:   music, homework, art, reading, and all serious family planning and conversation.  It is a very personal parlor of sorts.  This next gallery is sure to be a space to inspire conversation just like it namesake.  Take a look…

JUROR:  As a youth in the 1980s, Jonathan LeVine recognized the appeal of countercultural aesthetics including punk flyers, comics, graffiti and tattoos. Beginning in 1994, LeVine became an independent curator, organizing exhibitions at punk and alternative rock venues in the NY/NJ area such as: CBGB, Webster Hall, Max Fish, and Maxwell’s. By promoting these visual art forms through group shows in venues that were home to their musical counterparts, LeVine gave a home to this nascent art movement, early on.

Learn more about juror Jonathan LeVine!In February 2001, LeVine opened his own gallery Tin Man Alley in New Hope, Pennsylvania. The gallery relocated to Philadelphia in late 2002. In January 2005, LeVine renamed and moved his gallery to the epicenter of the contemporary art world, Manhattan’s Chelsea district.

If this blog has an underlying, non-food theme, it would be “be brave”.  I use suggestions that you eat uni, or maybe fermented duck eggs, as the way to the point across, but “be brave” is the true theme, nonetheless.  This next Call is asking for your take on “The Road not Taken.”  Be brave and try…

Check out this Call for Entries from Lander Art Center (Lander, WY) for The Road Not Taken.  This is a great theme that is wide open to interpretation.  Could this be the opportunity for you?

The Road Not Taken

 

This year’s juror show theme centers around the well known 1916 poem by Robert Frost entitled The Road Not Taken.  Poetry and the visual arts can have the similar ability to evoke thought, reflection, and emotion.  This year’s theme, The Road Not Taken can be explored as a whole or focused on a certain phrase or aspect of the poem by the artist.

Who is left behind when one goes down one path and not the other?  What do we sacrifice for taking the road less traveled?  The poem is to be interpreted by the individual artist.

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists

MEDIA:  Open to all media

DEADLINE:  September 21, 2013

NOTIFICATION:  October 8, 2013

My husband sings in the kitchen.  It isn’t one specific tune; it is usually whatever he last heard.  I don’t know how he doesn’t find it distracting.  I need concentration and quiet to make sure my mousse doesn’t burn.  I just do.  I don’t often listen to music while I produce art either.  Puzzling.  This next Call is musically inspired; maybe I should experiment.  Take a look…

Olive oil flows freely in my kitchen.  I use it in everything from the obvious, sauteed mushrooms and onions, to baking and sweet treats like peanut butter cookies and brownies.  Olive oil when combined with onions, celery and carrots become the foundation for almost every savory dish that exits my kitchen.  It is the basis upon which everything else is built.  Many feel that paint occupies that same space in the arts.  This next Call wants your view on the media…

I had another Jetsons dream.  This one involved me in my futuristic kitchen that was equipped with completely mobile gadgetry.  I could sit or stand in one place and everything would come to me as I needed it just by thinking it.  Is it telling that I even dream about my own laziness?  Maybe instead of my laziness, it was just a premonition of a design for this next Call.  So cool…

I’ve been enjoying a Summer of barbeque–tomato-based, mostly, with a dry rub here and there.  But, I kind of miss the mustard-based BBQ of South Carolina.  And on the even more rare occasion, my thoughts turn to vinegar-based BBQ of North Carolina.  It is a lighter, tangy taste than the heavy, pass-the-antacid variety common to most of the South.  If you go to the opening for this next Call in NC, be sure to try it.  Take a look…

I think the teenagers that work at my local market think I am the crazy produce lady.  It might have something to do with the muttering under my breath when they drop the pineapple on my tomatoes or the fact that I will stand in a longer line to get the cashier that won’t drop a cantaloupe on my cilantro.   The muttering prevents me from coming unhinged.  The only thing missing from the scenerio is my muttering “whippersnappers,” but I assure you it will show up eventually. Hehe.  This next Call wants unhinged in a less curmudgeonly way, I suspect.  You decide…
