REMINDER: Art Inter/National

Posted on June 4, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

REMINDER:

EAT your
HEART out!

While watching a TV show about how salami is made, my son announced that eating the organs of an animal is wrong. However, when I explained all the things that his new belief would eliminate from his menu, he then asked, “Do they at least WASH the intestines first?” Hehehe. These days I prefer my animal organs in the form of chicken pate, but I will have to start keeping the ingredient list to myself, apparently. This next Call for Entries involves a different sort of heart all together. This could be an excellent opportunity…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Boxheart Gallery (Pittsburgh, PA) for the 2012 Art Inter/National Exhibition. There is no entry free and no media restriction on this exhibit. Don’t miss this chance!

CALL for ENTRIES: Appropriated Gender

Posted on June 1, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

HEADS and COCKTAILS

Gender roles and alcoholic beverages are laughable. Out of town on business this week, I was sitting in the hotel bar watching women ordering glasses of wine and brightly-colored martinis while men ordered beer and brown liquors. Really, people? I know I live in the South, but do we really have to fulfill this stereotype. Kudos to the couple in the corner– he ordered a daiquiri (umbrella included), and she order a shot of something brown. You saved my night, folks. This next call is all about challenging notions of gender. Take a look…

TIME to
MARINATE

My favorite Mexican food is fish. Many Americans have been lulled into thinking of the local fast food taco as representative of Mexican cuisine. But you haven’t eaten truly representative food, in my opinion, until you have had authentic fish seviche marinated in citrus and chiles. This Call encourages you to capture your view of the issues that surround the Mexico border! Say it with art…

Check out the Call for Entries for Beyond the Border from the Coconino Center for the Arts in Flagstaff, AZ. The entry fee is standard, but you’re allowed to send details…even of two-dimensional work. For those of you wanting to add Arizona to your resume, this is a GREAT opportunity!

Artists are encouraged to submit art that explores this impact and how changing policy is affecting the environment and/or people. The intent of this exhibition is not to advocate for or against any position, policy or political figure; rather, Beyond the Border offers an opportunity for stories to be shared and questions to be raised that allow viewers to explore the consequences of intensified focus on this region.

Her images document the history and express the surreal magic, irony and the beauty of the enduring Spirit of the Mexican people connected to the bi-national landscape and history, caught in-between worlds, and divided by border policies. Shawn Skabelund is a conceptual artist who does site specific, place-based installations exploring culture/nature issues.

AWARDS: Stipends in the amount of $250 (to cover costs associated with providing art for the exhibition) will be granted to 4 artists whose accepted entries best exemplify the spirit of Beyond the Border.
