Pimento cheese is known as the caviar of the South.  It is fundamentally made with American cheese which isn’t actually cheese.  So can you make authentic pimento cheese with a faux ingredient?  I’m taking pimento cheese back from the faux with my cheddar cheese only recipe. Faux ingredients = faux food.  Share your take on all things faux with this next Call.  Take a look…

Faux Real

 

Though the idea of the ‘real’ has a multitude of meanings, it has been endlessly interpreted by artists and holds particular significance in our ever-changing world.

Artists approach reality and its relationship to representation through numerous types of media and with many distinctive standpoints. The term ‘reality’ has been consistently redefined and broadened to include new realms, like the virtual, the personal, the unscripted, the digital, the hallucinogenic.

Non-Fiction Gallery is looking for works that explore the many facets of the concept of reality.

I miss hot dogs.  My husband owned a hot dog & ice cream shop years ago.  And he sold cucumber relish & feta topped turkey dogs that made my world go ’round.  Hot dogs are the the ultimate urban picnic, & hot dog vendors are rock stars.  Because the only good hot dog I can find is one whose label I can’t read in advance, ha.  This next Call in an opportunity to have your own urban picnic.  Take a look…

I love eating with my husband.  There is something about the eating & drinking of it all that brings on the conversations you never expect.  it is like the intimate version of coffee talk, less the coffee.

snack

I’m a night eater.  15 years or so ago, I began having a late-night snack before bedtime–a habit acquired while pregnant.  I’ve never been able to shake the late night cookies and chips and cereal.  My husband’s theory is that I have to fuel my nocturnal duties that revolve around problem-solving in my sleep.  I’ve quit trying to fight it. Now I’m just trying to improve my choices.  Cookies and cereal have been slowly replaced by cheese and nuts or citrus fruit.  I’m embracing the dark side, and this next exhibit does too.  Take a look…

Night Visions V

 

More than two-thirds of Americans live where they can no longer see the Milky Way galaxy because of light pollution. We have grown so isolated from night that in much of our culture it has become alien and fearful. NightVisions V seeks to re-open our positive connections to the natural night and to bridge the divide separating artistic from scientific perception, promoting the idea that science and art are two intertwined aspects of human experience.

MEDIA: Open to any media

JURORS:  Chicago binder, book & installation artist Karen Hanmer creates intimate, playful works that fragment & layer text and image to intertwine memory, cultural history, and the history of science.  Her work weds the ancient act of book binding with the high tech use of the computer to aid her process.  The intimate scale and the gestures of exploration required to travel through each piece evoke the experience of looking through an album, a diary, or the belongings of a loved one.  However, her works often take the forms of games or puzzles, and many include witty text.

Hanmer exhibits widely, and her work is included in collections ranging from Tate Britain and the Library of Congress to UCLA and Graceland.

AWARDS: Best of show $1000, 2nd Place $500 & 3rd Place $250.

I take turns with food indulgences.  Butter makes a regular appearance, but heavy whipping cream seems to be the preference this week.  It is the main reason I make the best quiche (anywhere, thank-you-very-much), but my zucchini au gratin rocks because of it as well.  My relationship with heavy whipping cream is almost spiritual.  This next Call wants to see how you reveal your mind, spirit & emotion in art.

full

My mother believes I am obsessed with food & cooking.  She finds it laughable that I have a bowl specific to whipping cream.  “Obsessed” is a strong word, possibly accurate, but definitely strong.  I do not own a single bowl to which I am well enough attached that I want to be buried with it like Mimbres bowls which have been found covering the face of the interred. Wear marks on the insides of those bowls show they were actually used for more than burial items.  That just makes me more respectful of my pottery bowls–lest it ends up covering my face for all of eternity.  Hmm. This next Call wants to see how YOU might be inspired by Mimbres potters.  This is a fascinating Call, and NOT restricted to clay media.  Take a look…

The art in my kitchen is more commonly viewed than any other work in my house.  Maybe it is because I spend a lot of time waiting for potatoes to boil and onions to caramelize and cheesecake to bake–actual cheesecake pictured left. My collection ranges from diary collage applied to toasters to beautiful textural miniature abstracts to large flying pigs.  This next Call could help you get your work in someone else’s kitchen.  Investigate this one…

INGREDIENTS

My true goal with food is the same with art: to see you be brave.  But being brave has to be based on knowledge, not whim.  This is true of both food AND art.  I would never have you enter a show without doing at least some preliminary research into the venue, gallery, organization or publication.  So I want to encourage you never to let a food enter your mouth without a little preliminary research into ingredients or origin.  Do me a favor, if I can’t get you to quit eating food with labels, at least read the label.  There are scary things hidden in lots of foods. This next Call wants to explore the hidden as well.  Take a look…

My kid loves quiche.  He requests it for every special occasion–from birthdays to graduations.  The secret is 6 eggs to 2 cups of heavy whipping cream for a deep dish, and don’t talk to me about the fat.  Really.  He rarely cares what’s in it, but when I’m looking for brownie points, I throw in bacon and/or pepperoni.  I do it for the look on his face.  How strange it is to see him look lovingly at a brunch food.  This next Call is looking for your strange figurations–and not just the faces.  Take a look…

& 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?

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.
