CALL for ENTRIES: Reflections

Posted on December 9, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

FOOD
for thought

It is that time of year again. Time to reflect upon choices made, good and bad, as well as choices to be made, good and bad. I won’t presume to give you life advice, and there are dozens of sites dedicated to give you advice on how to be a “successful” artist. So, I will only repeat what we all learned in kindergarten. You are what you eat. You are given only one life with which to be creative. Fuel it well and your efforts will be reflected in your work. This next Call will ask you for even more reflection. Investigate this opportunity…

Check out this Call for Entries from Smithtown Township Arts Council for Reflections to be exhibited at the Mills Pond House Gallery in St. James, NY. This is such a beautiful place to exhibit your work. Take a closer look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Reflections

Reflection can be either a physical or a psychological phenomenon. Together they evoke the interplay between perception and conception.

Entries will be judged on the originality and insight with which they embody this theme visually in traditional as well as new media. A brief explanation such as might be printed on a label along with the artist’s information can be helpful, but the best work will succeed in conveying meaning by itself. Longer explanations will not be considered. The use of mirrors in the work is permissible but neither necessary, nor necessarily desirable.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists/students enrolled in M.F.A. programs

MEDIA: Open to all media

DEADLINE: February 1, 2013

NOTIFICATION: February 22, 2013

ENTRY FEE: $45 for up to 3 entries. $35 for STAC member artists.

He was educated at Phillips Andover, Yale (B.A.), Harvard (PhD) and the Institut d’Art et d’Archéologie of the Sorbonne in Paris (license-ès-lettres).

Rubin has taught at Harvard University, Boston University and Princeton University. He is currently Professor of Art History at Stony Brook, where he was department chair for fifteen years. He also taught part-time for many years at The Cooper Union, New York City. He has published over fifty articles and essays on subjects ranging from the eighteenth century to the present.

CALL for ENTRIES: Humans Being

Posted on December 7, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

COMMON
ground

Food is food, just like people are people. Both food and people are individual, come with their own quirky personalities and some play better with others. You just have to learn to approach each individual food (even coffee) and person with respect, eager to learn what they will offer. Approach this next Call the same way. Investigate…

CALL for ENTRIES: 50th at the Masur

Posted on December 2, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

LAZY DAYS
of Winter

Chili mac is in the crock pot right now. Mmmhmm, sophisticated. I spend a lot of time talking about gourmet foods, but it is cold and drizzly outside. And since I cannot spend a couple of balmy days in Louisiana soaking up the warm, humid goodness… I made chili mac instead of grilled portobellos with homemade pesto over flax seed, whole wheat pasta. Don’t judge me–or my chili mac. This next Call is enticing me, if only because I am dreaming of attending a Louisiana opening. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Collaborations

Posted on November 30, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

SWEET
in pairs

My husband and I don’t cook together often. He doesn’t believe in cleaning while you cook; therefore, a simple bowl of popcorn ends with the kitchen looking like someone washed a pack of dogs in the sink–a disaster area. I enjoy the collaboration, but the clean up is hell. This next Call is about a collaboration of a different sort. Investigate…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Trestle Gallery (Brooklyn, NY) for the Collaborations exhibit. The entry fee is really low, and it is an unusual opportunity meant just for collaborations. Take a look…

CALL for APPLICATIONS: Grant/Purchase Awards

BAKING
with dough

Menu planning takes lots of creativity, and a little extra cash never hurts. The meal I cook with $30 is vastly different than the meal I cook with a $300 budget. Many of you have been making phenomenal art with a $30 budget. This next Call could be an opportunity to increase your budget. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Gold

Posted on November 26, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

GOLDEN
taters

Gold has been used to adorn everything, including food, for years. At least once per month, some entertainment magazine show features a sundae with gold leaf that costs $1500+, but there are cheaper ways too, like edible spray paints. But personally, I choose my golden food in a well-roasted Yukon gold potato. Or maybe a baked chicken. This next Call wants to see your take on all things golden. The deadline is a week away…so hurry.

Check out this Call for Entries from Beers Lambert (London) for the Gold exhibit. There is no entry fee, and many of you living stateside probably still need an international show on your resume. Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: If you have read the personal portion of this post, CALL for ENTRIES: Gold, anywhere other than by email subscription or on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com, it has been published without permission and is considered theft.

CALL for ENTRIES: Gold

Gold remains an enigma within the history of art and culture, and while much has been analyzed regarding its use, existence, and symbolism in art and culture, any historical discourse regarding the use of gold in art history has remained relatively stagnant in contemporary culture. Still, artists from the Byzantine period to Michelangelo and even Damien Hirst have made countless works with gold as the sole source, means, and directive of the work. Today, however, the use of gold in modern or contemporary art (while prevalent) is often used cheekily, consciously referencing the medium’s historical and overwrought allegorical signifiers, or self-awarely pointing out the kitsch connoted therein.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All media adopts gold as its raison-d’être will be considered, including: two-dimensional, three-dimensional, installation, video, performance, new-media and other traditional and non-traditional media.

DEADLINE: December 3, 2012

NOTIFICATION: It is the applicant’s responsibility to check the site in throughout December and January 2013, when results will be posted online. Only successful applicants will be contacted by email.

ENTRY FEE: None

HOT
potato

I have a new recipe for sweet potato poblano soup. It came in this month’s issue of Whole Living magazine. I’ll let you know how it turns out after I make it this weekend. Winter is a season-long soup bonanza at my house. We have soup, stew or chowder for dinner 3 to 4 nights a week from November through March. This next Call wants to know about your Winter changes.

CALL for ENTRIES:
Gathering Clouds: The Winter Studio

MEDIA: Any media that can be appropriately represented by you in a 1200×1200 pixel image. i.e. painting, photography, printmaking, illustration, drawing, etc.

REMINDER: The End

Posted on November 23, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

THE SLEEPY
bird

Thanksgiving marks the end of a turkey-free holiday streak at my house. Until now, I haven’t had part in cooking a turkey in twenty-eight years. No joking. It isn’t that I dislike turkey so much as I believe that there are far better things to eat. My mother prefers maple-glazed ham; I like curry and honey glazed duck. But, my kid wanted turkey. The kid wins this time; the end of an era. This next Call is all about the end. This deadline is right around the corner…

CALL for ENTRIES: 16th Woman Made

Posted on November 20, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

FULLY BAKED!

My son is contemplating going to school to be a pastry chef. I can’t even allow myself to think that it might really happen; he’s only 13. But the most interesting part of this particular career conversation (there have been hundreds) was that he was shocked and relieved to find out that it was OKAY for him to be a boy and want to cook. What? His father has cooked 75% of the meals he has ever eaten. How could he think there would be a gender issue? Bizarre. This next Call does have a bit of a gender issue to be considered. Investigate…

CALL for ENTRIES: Octagon Center

Posted on November 19, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

TOUCHDOWN!

To my knowledge, there are no octagon shaped foods–unless you count chocolates that come in an octagon shaped box. However, there are definitely seven-sided foods. Tourné potatoes were a rival to my sanity in cooking school. Two inches long with seven perfectly rounded sides. We weren’t allowed to blunt the ends. They had to be perfectly pointed little oblong taters–nearly football shaped. It still causes me physical pain to even think about them. But they were beautiful. Let’s stick with the octagon, though, like the one in this next Call. Take a look…
