MARINATE

My favorite Mexican food is fish. Many Americans have been lulled into thinking of the local fast food taco as representative of Mexican cuisine.  But you haven’t eaten truly representative food, in my opinion, until you have had authentic fish seviche marinated in citrus and chiles. This Call encourages you to capture your view of the issues that surround the Mexico border!   Say it with art…

Check out the Call for Entries for Beyond the Border from the Coconino Center for the Arts in Flagstaff, AZ. The entry fee is standard, but you’re allowed to send details…even of two-dimensional work. For those of you wanting to add Arizona to your resume, this is a GREAT opportunity!

Artists are encouraged to submit art that explores this impact and how changing policy is affecting the environment and/or people. The intent of this exhibition is not to advocate for or against any position, policy or political figure; rather, Beyond the Border offers an opportunity for stories to be shared and questions to be raised that allow viewers to explore the consequences of intensified focus on this region.

Her images document the history and express the surreal magic, irony and the beauty of the enduring Spirit of the Mexican people connected to the bi-national landscape and history, caught in-between worlds, and divided by border policies.  Shawn Skabelund is a conceptual artist who does site specific, place-based installations exploring culture/nature issues.

AWARDS: Stipends in the amount of $250 (to cover costs associated with providing art for the exhibition) will be granted to 4 artists whose accepted entries best exemplify the spirit of Beyond the Border.

Just a year or so after the 25th anniversary of my birth, I began my love affair with cheese. Well, more accurately, I began working behind the counter of a gourmet cheese shop.  A world that had previously been defined by cheddar, Swiss and American cheeses now suddenly included choices between cow, goat and even sheep’s milk cheeses.  Sometimes 25 years is the turning point.  This next call wants to see your perspective on the past 25 years’ events.  Whatcha got?

I have a milestone birthday on the horizon, and I am curious whether my cake will be a reflection of my obsession with food, art or shoes (assuming my wonderful husband thinks to get me a cake).   My shoe obsession is widely known (and often ridiculed) locally, but only time will tell about whether it will show up as a cake theme.  Check out this Jimmy Choo Cake from Truly Scrumptious.
