CALL for ENTRIES: Creative Quarterly No. 24

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email! FOOD YES,
WHINE NO

I am a magazine reader. Yep, the paper ones. I read and peruse imagery as motivation for household projects, photography and, of course, cooking. One of my favorite food magazines? Food and Wine, of course.  I have delusions of grandeur each and every time I watch Top Chefs that I could win that show and have my work featured in F&W.  Instead, I am opting to submit my art to this Call for Creative Quarterly.  Do you think Food & Wine will be so impressed they will cover my food anyway?  Me neither.  Anyway, don’t miss this opportunity…

Check out this Call for Entries for Creative Quarterly. The entry fee is an incredibly low $10, and art publication is great exposure for your work. Take a look!

I must confess that I do less cooking than my daily ramblings might indicate. My dearest husband does much of the cooking in our household, and he does it wonderfully. But the times I truly enjoy are the times we spend in the kitchen together. And, as I get older, I have found that artistic collaboration keeps me motivated as well. This call offers you an opportunity to produce work while still being someone else’s muse. Great idea…

Check out this Call for Entries from Open to Interpretation’s juried book competition Water’s Edge. Have your work become the artistic inspiration for a literary masterpiece today!

ARTIST RESIDENCY: 1 Week River Retreat

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!

CATCH and RELEASE?

One of my favorite things about a river vacation getaway or retreat is the trout.  I like to catch them.  I like to eat them.  I do not like to clean them.  It isn’t about my wanting to be ignorant of the source of my food or the avoiding the death of a living being.  I just don’t like the guts part.  No, really.  If you’re a little squeamish too, make sure you take someone along for this next week-long artist residency on the river.  Take a look…

Check out this Artist Residency Opportunity from Vision Quest Photo.  It would be a great deal at the normal cost of $675; however, here is your chance to get a grant to spend a free week at the Trade River Retreat Center!  For those of you that don’t normally consider Artist in Residence programs due to an inability to leave home for months at a time, this might just be your chance!

ARTIST RESIDENCY:  Trade River Retreat Center

Stay in a very private retreat in the woods along the banks of a pristine sand-bottom river. The Trade River Retreat Center is located near Grantsburg, Wisconsin, an hour and a half from the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, MN.

I would love to know what percentage of cell phone pictures are of food. I am willing to  bet it is over twenty-five percent…maybe even thirty percent.  Thanks to facebook, I am regularly made aware of the gastronomic adventures of hundreds of my friends.  Unfortunately, due to the number of my friends that are artists that also read this blog… I must honestly admit that I am among the worst of the offenders.  I submit evidence of my guilt by posting  this picture to the left of delicious Buckberry Bread Pudding that I took yesterday at The Lodge at Buckberry Creek.   And, while I am not suggesting you submit pictures of food, this Call will require use of your cell phone.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Darkroom Gallery called Phone-O-Graphic Arts. Enter your work for as little as $20. Don’t forget Dark Room Gallery offers free framing & matting on accepted entries!

Phone-o-graph by Dan BurkholderCALL FOR ENTRIES:
Phone-O-Graphic

Likely you’ve got your phone with you at all times, while you’ve forgotten your dSLR or film camera at home.  You wouldn’t dare leave your phone at home, would you?  It’s liberating, knowing your cell or smartphone can take a picture, anytime, anywhere. 

As Photographers, you’ve likely engaged in the heated discussion over the capability, viability, credibility of the camera phone.  Purists scoff at the intrusion of a mediocre, fraud of a device, that is marring their photographic religion.  And then there are the rest of you, embracing the technology and embracing the all-in-one, multi-media lifestyle of the cellphone-toting imagist, so many of you have become.   

JUROR:   Dan Burkholder has a long history of looking over the photographic horizon to see, explore and teach the next great thing in imaging. His newest book, iPhone Artistry (Pixiq Press, 2011), is the definitive how-to for creative iPhone photographers. His first book, Making Digital Negatives for Contact Printing (Bladed Iris Press, 1995) became a seminal manual for photographers wanting to blend the power of digital imaging with the charm of the handmade print.

Learn more about the Digital Concept show at the Darkroom Gallery!Dan received his B.A. and Master’s degrees from Brooks Institute of Photography, in Santa Barbara, CA. Dan has taught digital imaging workshops for 16 years on three continents and several island countries.

Burkholder’s platinum / palladium and pigmented ink prints are included in private and public collections internationally.

Just the other day, I admitted my food stereotypes about Phoenix.  I’ll continue today with Texan food stereotypes.  I think steak or Tex-Mex.  All things Mexican or Spanish, right?  I never thought of chicken fried steak.  Chicken fried steak is considered German, a derivative of Wiener Schnitzel, a veal steak deep-fried in a breadcrumb batter. In chicken fried steak, beef scraps are used and beaten into steak form.  A milk-based cream gravy is almost always served with chicken fried steak too.  Yes, folks…Welcome to Texas.  Okay, I did my research on Texas.  This next call will require you to do a little Texas research as well before creating your artwork.  Take a look…

I have been in Phoenix for a few days opening my own show at Perihelion Arts.  And, I have learned a few things about stereotypes.  I thought I was going to a dust bowl to eat south western food.  Turns out–not so much.  The grass is still green there.  Trees still grow there.  And my favorite restaurant sampling during my trip turned out to be Mediterranean influenced tappas at Pita Jungle.  Go figure.  This next Call gives you a chance to break a few landscape stereotypes.  Take a look…
