I miss mustard-based barbeque.  I moved to Tennessee form South Carolina.  And, although my new home has some unbelievable barbeque, I have to admit that I still miss a little mustard based pork now and then.  I am tempted to submit to this next call just to have an excuse to pick up a little pork of the yellow variety.  How about you?

Check out this Open Call for 2013 Exhibition Opportunities at the Dalton Gallery from The Arts Council of York County (Rock Hill, SC). I have shown in this gallery’s annual juried show, and it is both beautiful and well-managed. Definitely don’t miss this opportunity…

when you’re hungry

A lack of time is the excuse for a lot of quickie meals in my house–from Manwich® to frozen “cardboard” pizza.  But a lack of time is also my excuse for splurging at the antipasti bar in my local grocery store.  It is a double standard, but who uses TOO MUCH time as an excuse for anything?  This next Call doesn’t have a lot of time left, but they’ll take all the time you have.  You’ll see what I mean…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Orange County (CA) Center for Contemporary Art (OCCCA) for Random Acts of Time.  The deadline is fast approaching, but I’ll bet you already have work that suits this theme.  Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Random Acts of Time

Learn more about the Orange County Center for Contmeporary Art - OCCCA!“This exhibition investigates our relationship to the concept of time, the choices we make and the random, uncontrollable events that shape our lives. From the moment we begin our journey into the cacophony of the world – a series of decisions, choices and twists of fate guide us – often lurching or blissful and occasionally tragic. What have we chosen for ourselves? When has our hand been forced? Have random or serendipitous events changed our course? Have we triumphed? What have we lost? What have we remembered and forgotten?

“Time is a recurring thematic in artists’ works – witness the public response and fascination with Christian Marclay’s 24-hour montage The Clock. Exploring that inexorable passage via divergent points-of-view, media and imagery demands introspection and perspective. This exhibition will investigate what binds or propels us, notions of conscious or unconscious experiences and the narratives we collect as we negotiate our lives.” –William Moreno, Juror

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists

MEDIA:  All media and new media will be considered. Artwork, performance, or installations with special instructions or equipment must be described in full and possibly installed by the artist. Special hardware requirements must be included with the accepted entries.

DEADLINE:  March 31, 2012

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…

TEMPTED?

Genetically modified food scares the crap out of me. I understand, economically speaking, why food is modified.   But it doesn’t matter how much disease-resistant, mutant corn you can produce if everyone has three heads and glows in the dark.  Am I suggest that genetically-modified corn causes these symptoms? No.  I am suggesting that none of us know WHAT the end result could be.  I’m planting heirloom varieties in my patch in the back yard this year.  This Call certainly encourages you to beauty and vulnerability of the endangered and the threatened. Investigate for yourself…

Narrative is an essential tool of understanding and communication of ideas. Humanities from history to politics to science are understood and disseminated through narrative tools. Characters and bildungsroman are the flesh and blood of narratives, which link us to our past and help guide our vision of the future. Narrative is a thread which represents, interprets, and shapes our world. Our narrative is often truth for lack of capital-T-Truth as we manipulate it so it may manipulate us. Perhaps most importantly, it is a double-edged sword which grants us access to experiences which may be beyond our reach–independent of space, time, and reality. This exhibition seeks to explore the power of character and narrative through games and art.”
