CALL for ENTRIES: Industrial

Posted on May 13, 2014May 13, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

a MILK MUSTACHE
& public service

I need a food segue about Colorado, but did you know that Colorado doesn’t even have a state food? So bizarre. Truth be told, when I hear Colorado— specifically, Pueblo, Colorado–I always think of the PSAs that ran between Saturday morning cartoons when I was little. I am sure I am giving away my age, but I can clearly remember having a milk mustache and hearing, “For more information, write to ‘Pueblo, Colorado, 81009’,” (home of the Federal Citizen Information Center). It is a shame that sort of random trivia doesn’t make me a genius. This next Call hails from Pueblo, and genius would come in handy. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Kadoya Gallery (Pueblo, CO) for Industrial. This gallery claims its focus as “emerging creative genius”! What’s not to love about that criteria? I’m full of creative genius. You too?

CALL for ENTRIES:
Industrial

One may characterize industrial as large metal structures, both new and aged, twisting and climbing their way into focus, tightly-wound steel cables, factory floors, and the heavy iron of old railroad trusses. Within the notion of the industrial, however, there is an human emotional attachment connected to the laborer and labor movement, as well. We challenge you to take this subject in any direction and focus you may feel fits the theme.

CALL for ENTRIES: Sirens & Seahorses

Posted on May 12, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

olives or
PEANUT BUTTER

I wax nostalgic around holidays, and Mother’s Day made me think of pimento loaf. When I was around 7, my father & I lived in Little Rock, Arkansas. My Mom wasn’t around (that’s a long story for another time), and my Dad made all my lunches. In his mind, pimento loaf was an appropriate lunch meat for a 7 year old. At night, I would sneak to the bedroom door and whisper “peanut butter & jelly” while he prepared to make my lunch–subliminal influence. I quit getting pimento loaf, and at least 3 days a week, I got Goober Grape®. My Dad never mentioned it. This next Call also conjures images of childhood for me. Maybe my childhood wasn’t the standard. Hmmm…

PO-TAY-TO
pa-tah-to

Road trips are not great for the fit of my performance clothing. My husband and I are musicians, and we have a lot of shows for the summer. Many of those shows require a drive of at least a few hours. That means road food. The danger is that I will eat french fries at every stop, punctuated by the occasional order of homemade potato chips. I eat the eggs at Waffle House just to have an excuse to eat the hashbrowns. I have a potato problem. Can you tell. it is going to be a long summer, ha. This next Call is all about being on the road–not just the food that accompanies a road trip. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Birds

Posted on May 9, 2014May 9, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

CHICKY

When I was pregnant, I couldn’t eat anything that looked like a bird. The smell of fresh-roasted chicken made me ill. And, while I could eat a chicken nugget or bad, food-service breaded chicken patty, the mere sight of a drumstick would make me violently ill. At the time, I worked behind the cheese counter at The Gourmet Shop–which was, and still is, famous for the hundreds of pounds of chicken salad they make & sell everyday. That job didn’t last long. This next Call IS NOT for roasted birds; I suspect they would prefer imagery of birds that are still very much alive. Just sayin’…

CALL for ENTRIES: Color

Posted on May 7, 2014May 7, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

TOMATOES
extra fructose?

I had brown tomatoes at dinner tonight, and they were NOT rotten. They were Kumatoes–a hybrid developed in Spain. I noted they were a touch sweeter, but less exotic tasting than they appeared. But, I can’t resist a weird fruit or vegetable, so I tried them as a part of a Caprese Salad. Pretty, but forgettable. This next exhibit is all about Color as well; just make sure you don’t send pretty-but-forgettable work. Take a look…

KRINGLE

Since diagnosed with a wheat allergy, bread isn’t an option for my family. And honestly, I don’t really miss it. We’ve come up with alternatives for pizza dough, cookie dough and pie crust. But I can’t come up with substitutes for puff pastry or the heavenly 32 layers of flaky dough that is the Kringle. Help. Me. Please.

CALL for ENTRIES: REDhanded

Why RED? Red is the warmest and most striking of all colors. Red is the color most chosen by extroverts and one of the top picks of males. Red can mean love, lust, anger, temper, fiery heat and warmth. Red can symbolize danger. In China, red is the color of prosperity and joy where brides wear red and front doors are often painted red. Red is Tuesday’s color. Red roses symbolize passionate love. Red is the color of Mars. Red is the color of blood with strong symbolism as life and vitality. And we believe artists who work in RED understand the power of creating art within shades of red. Here’s hoping to catch you RedHanded! –from the prospectus

A hummus monster lives at my house. He can go through a tub of hummus a day with corn chips, carrots, pork rinds; it matters not. We often make something instead of buying it to reduce the amount of ingredients and unpronounceable crap in our food. However, if I am going to give in and make 40 spice hummus for the little monster in my house, I’ll have to give up the “fewer ingredients” efforts. (Check out the recipe.)
