CALL for ENTRIES: Love/Hate

Posted on November 24, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

WHINE, wine,
WHINE

I love red wine, but it hates me. My mom feels that way about cucumbers. My kid feels that way about cheese. If the cliche “we always hurt the ones we love” is true for food, it always hurts the one by whom it is loved. It is circuitous. This next Call wants your take on the love and hate of it all. Takers anyone?

Check out this Call for Entries for Love/Hate, a group show, at the Lana Santorelli Gallery in Hoboken, NJ! If you don’t have entries for this show, don’t worry… you can also answer their open call–$20 for up to 20 images. You can’t beat the price…

OPEN CALL: SPACE WOMb in NY

Posted on November 6, 2011November 6, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

Sometimes…
YOU FEEL LIKE A NUT

Today, I miss peanut butter. When I was pregnant, peanut butter was a wonder food. It had just enough protein, sugar and fat to transform my mood, one tablespoon at a time. In celebration of my in-laws 50th Anniversary, I am headed on vacation to a much warmer clime…just in time for Christmas. You know what is not great about a warm vacation at Christmas? Being in a bathing suit at Christmas… when I should be eating peanut butter cookies and peanut butter pie and everything else that won’t run from me. Oh well, my pregnancy days are long over, so I’m gonna lay off the peanut butter for a couple of months. This next Call involves a completely different kind of womb. Take a look…

Check out this Open Call from SPACE WOMb (Long Island City, New York). This is a contemporary art gallery located around the corner from the MoMA PS1 in NY. There is no fee to enter to submit your work…

CAFFEINE

Lecture of the day…art publication. Food reference of the day…chocolate. I know. I’m sorry.

OPEN CALL: Grand Opera House Galleries

Posted on August 3, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

MAKING me SING!

I seem to have Italian and Greek food on the brain these days. I usually write the food reference paragraph of these posts to see what the Call conjures in my mind and stomach. And, for some reason, it is Italian and Greek these days. Maybe it is the Suzukakia (Greek Meatballs) I had at Athens Restaurant in Nashville this past weekend. So, I got to meatballs because I ran across this Open Call for an opera house. Doesn’t opera make you instantly think meatballs? Maybe it is just me…

Check out this Open Call from the Grand Opera House (Wilmington, Delaware) to Exhibit in a Grand Gallery for the 2011/2012 season. The entry fee is only $25, but the opportunity is HUGE! Investigate…

OPEN CALL: Culture Hall

Posted on July 25, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

DON’T LABEL ME

Generic versus name brand and heirloom versus genetically-modified and cheese food versus cheese. The debates over what makes the grade and what doesn’t will NEVER end. In my kitchen, I read labels and I buy the very best quality that I can afford at the moment. I steer clear of any foods with scary ingredient lists, and I cross my fingers and hope my family enjoys their dinner. This Call is all about the subjective question “is it good enough?” Say some affirmations in the mirror and take the leap…

CHOCOLATE
PERFECTION

The existence of some foods has an almost mythical quality… the perfect hot dog, the perfect pizza, and for me, the perfect piece of chocolate? Sometimes there are so many choices and so many opinions that awarding the status of “perfection” can be as individual as the food itself. Art is no different.

CALL for SUBMISSIONS: Toad

Posted on March 27, 2011August 6, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

RRRRRRIBIT

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. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Submissions for Toad, an online journal of art and writing. No submission fee–just a chance to be heard, metaphorically speaking. Take a leap into the deep end of the pond…

CALL for SUBMISSIONS:
Toad

Toad comprises any number of species of artists of the creative order, often characterized by their exciting work, thick skin, and wart-like ideas. To maintain its lively form, Toad cultivates bimonthly issues with rotating editors and staff to ensure that the content stays fresh and diverse.

Toad: they rivet.

Every other month Toad showcases new poetry, prose, and visual art. As an ever-evolving amphibian, the editors of Toad select artists (“toadists”) from one of three pools: the first is a flourishing man-made pond, supplied with recommendations offered by previous contributors. The second is their sportive, always popular pool of open submissions. Lastly but not leastly, is the puddle-wonderful artistic response forum, which collects creative kickback from readers to establish an art orgy for all to enjoy.

MEDIA: They want it all: videos, music, collaborative projects, ekphrastic works, genre-crossing/bending art, and of course, all the usual suspects with Verbal Kint included.

DEADLINE: Toad accepts submissions year-around.

ENTRY FEE: There is no entry fee!

SUBMISSIONS: By email and carrier pigeon only.
