CALL for ENTRIES: New School 2

Posted on June 27, 2016June 27, 2016 by R.L. Gibson

don’t mix my GREENS

300 miles from home, and we each wanted a salad on the go. Google sent me in the direction of a grocery store on the next exit with a huge salad bar. I came out with a traditional pile of mixed greens, spring peas, boiled eggs, carrots & cucumbers. My husband came out with segregated little piles of beets, broccoli florets, roasted tomatoes & olives, a wonder of little bites not unlike antipasto. Two schools of thought, equally valid. This next Call simply requires a school. Great exhibitions space…

CALL for ENTRIES: Childhood

Posted on June 16, 2016 by R.L. Gibson

land of CITRUS

I was born in Florida & spent the majority of my first 5 years there. We had a grapefruit tree in our yard. But, I can’t remember having so much as a wedge of an orange to eat. I do remember drinking lots of Tang though. Odd. Was my childhood plagued by foods expertly marketed to my single father, or is my recollection just not of those specific memories? Not even a wedge? How is that possible. This next Call wants YOUR childhood images. (Oranges not required). Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from L.A. Photo Curator for the Childhood exhibit. $20 entry, no shipping, great prizes & exposure for ALL entrants. Great opportunity…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Childhood
from L.A. Photo Curator

“Childhood is bursting at the seams with wonder, learning, exploration, joy, transformation, struggle, and love. So much carries a child from babyhood to spreading their wings as adults. It is, at once, so slow and so fast. So beautiful, and at times, so hard. What do you want to say about this fascinating time? We’d love to see your version of the child, from your perspective, in all its wonder or challenge.” –from curator Meredith McGrane

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Photography

DEADLINE: June 27, 2016 (Midnight PST)

ENTRY FEE: $20 for up to 3. 15% of artist fees go to the charity of the monthly curator (griffinmuseum.org) as well as the first place winner’s charity.

CURATOR: Meredith McGrane is a Massachusetts-based photographer whose work often explores her two selves — one part motherhood and one part channeling a penchant for wanderlust that existed long before motherhood. McGrane’s One Love Project examines mothering an only child with themes of presence, connection, and healing. Her photographs have been exhibited nationally. When not photographing, Meredith can be found putting on plays in her living room or riding her Razor scooter around the neighborhood – both with her daughter, of course.http://www.meredithmphotography.com/

SALES: All sales are conducted between the artist & buyer. L.A. Photo Curator does not handle any part of sales. There is no commission.

tiny TREATS

Olives & cheese have saved me so many times. When I’m traveling and haven’t been able to cook (or enjoy my husband’s cooking) for several weeks, an olive bar is the answer. Whole foods with decadent amounts of fat that are great cold. Tiny treats. This next Call wants your tiny treats, or small treats, whatever. Take a look…

up, up & TAKE AWAY

I put my kiddo on a plane, alone, bound for Texas, and as soon as he was settled into his seat, he texted me. Before even taxiing down the runway, he wanted to know how to order lunch. Ha. He’s mine, for certain. Luckily, airline food has gotten better and offers healthy, organic, less-processed options. I’m impressed. He was impressed. This next Call embraces travel too.

CALL for ENTRIES: Dank Memes

Posted on May 19, 2016 by R.L. Gibson

give ’em something to TACO ‘BOUT

Taco Tuesday really exists. It may not always happen on Tuesday, but tacos remain the easiest delivery method for dinner. From tuna with mango pico to barbecue chicken with jalapeño slaw, just wrap it in a corn tortilla, and dinner is done. And, if it happens to happen on a Tuesday, well, that’s what the dank meme is for… something to taco ’bout, right? Got more food memes? This next Call is for you, but the memes don’t have to be about food. I promise…

Dank Memes

Put simply, memes are cultural viruses; they’re ideas spread throughout our collective consciousness with a speed we can scarcely observe. As memes mutate & shift — seeding & replicating in the minds of ever-growing numbers of people — their popularity & trending lifespan become signposts which define broader cultural moments. Dig deep and decode the cultural viruses that live in you: show us your dank memes. –from nonfictiongallery.com

CALL to ARTISTS: Moving Forward

Posted on April 15, 2016 by R.L. Gibson

HUNGRY? me too

Because we live 20+ minutes to the closest grocery store, it can be very frustrating to start dinner and realize we’re out of onions or potatoes or eggs or whatever. So, we are all about menu planning at our house. This next Call is about planning as well, but it requires your input, your participation. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from AAAD for 2016-17 Planning & Progress. We have a lot going on, and I need your guidance an input to make sure that AAAD heads in a direction that works for all of us. I even formatted it like our normal calls to be certain that I don’t shake up the routine too much, ha. Keep reading…

CALL to ARTISTS:
Moving Forward from AAAD

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists. You may notice that we have eliminated the Featured Artist program in an effort to publish more of the ART in our name, Art & Art Deadlines. If you have an interest in being an Artist of the Day, we want to hear from you! Look in the juror section for an add’l bonus!

MEDIA: Are we including all the media Calls you want? Am I missing something? Am I under-representing your media? Please tell me. I largely post at the request of jurors and gallerists, so sometimes I unintentionally wear blinders.

DEADLINE: April 18, 2016. AAAD has a #smallworks (9×12 or smaller) Call out with an April 18th deadline, SMALL PLATES: A Response to Hunger. $5 Entry & open to prints. Please enter so that we can provide more show opportunities in the future!

NOTIFICATION: Now. Tell me what you need from AAAD. We have incorporated a lot of changes over the years based on readers’ suggestions. And, I am open to more. The site will undergo some dramatic aesthetic changes and alterations to the formatting of posts and subscriptions, and you can help shape that process. The resources will remain the same, and you’re simply stuck with the food references. But, I’m open to hearing you. Email me, leave a comment on the post (link to comments at top) or reply to your subscription email. Any way you wanna…

FEE: None. I am maintaining my commitment to NOT charge artists for use of this site. Ever.

JUROR: R.L. (Rachel) Gibson, continues to be the Editor. Me. Publication has been a bit sporadic lately because of events that left my family stranded in rural Virginia for a while. Dramatic, I know. I try not to publish personal posts often. But you were so kind when I lost my father a few years ago, that I thought I would share. Here’s the whole #saveERNIE story. So many of you ask me if there is anything you can do to help out at AAAD. There is. Instead of paying a $5 Artist of the Day fee or the $15 Artist to Love fee, donate $10 to #saveERNIE, I will enter you for FREE in both the Artist of the Day competition & Artist to Love directory. Plus, you have a chance to win a house concert. Time runs out Monday, August 18th, so hurry.

SALES: Selling art? Yes? YEAH! No? Maybe I can help. I will be travelling the country this summer giving career development seminars at Arts agencies and collectives. If you have a ideas for someone that I should approach with seminars, including “How to Price Your Art”, “Creative Branding” & more, let me know.

AWARDS: Brownie points. I have millions of “brownie points” up for grabs. You know you want them. It is easy to get them. Choose from one or ALL of these methods:

Subscribe to our FREE email (top right sidebar)
Like Us on Facebook. Subscribe to Notification for double points.
Follow us on Twitter. Regularly RT for triple points
Talk to that one friend that needs motivation about subscribing to AAAD. We need friends.
Send me your success stories by email or comment. I need motivation too. 🙂

Thanks for the love.

CALL for ENTRIES: The Retrieval

Posted on April 8, 2016 by R.L. Gibson

the STOMACH knows

Beautiful food is enticing. Culinary schools offer classes that teach presentation for a reason. But ugly food has its place. I had lunch with a friend yesterday; she insisted I pick the restaurant. I chose Indian food only to discover she had never eaten Indian food. I felt the need to warn her that the food was delicious, but ugly. Maybe ugly is a little too strong. It looks a bit like mud on rice, but the stomach doesn’t care what food looks like.. This next call isn’t muddy, it wants to see all that is beautiful. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Painting Center (NY) for The Retrieval of the Beautiful. This non-profit art center in the heart of Chelsea is offering a beautiful space & opportunity for more than painting…

CALL for ENTRIES: Show #31

Posted on April 4, 2016 by R.L. Gibson

smashingly
DELICIOUS

Do you own a food mill? Think of it as a low-tech food processor. I love them because it makes leftovers multi-use. Run your chunky marinara through the mill for pizza sauce, while the food processor tends to make a watery mess. Baked apples, once milled make a great granita. Veggies from making stock end up as a great, light sauce for a fast noodle lunch. Your time is valuable. Don’t waste it by throwing away the left overs. Eat them. This next Call is a multi-purpose tool. Apply for one show and get considered for multiples. Take a look…

GOODNESS

My food preferences have transformed. Years ago, I appreciated more complex, layers of flavor, intrigued by how accurately, or not, I could dissect the ingredients of a sauce. Now a beautiful polenta makes my day –organic, hand-ground corn, homemade chicken stock & aged Parmesan. Simple food allows me to seek out & celebrate quality ingredients without the need for clutter. This next Call is simple; pay the fee & submit a link. Easy…
