CALL for ENTRIES: Art & Technology

Posted on February 28, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

A SOUPÇON of SOUP

My kitchen is fairly free of electronic gadgets. While I appreciate the technology, a lack of space and economic tightwad-ness long ago put me on the path of manual gadgets. You should have been there when I tried to explain to my kid how to use a non-electric, hand-held can opener. Hilarity while trying to open a can of soup. This next Call wants to know how technology affects your art. And, it is free…

Check out this Call for Entries for Art & Technology from the Corcoran College of Art + Design’s Gallery 31 in Washington, DC. There is no entry fee, and academic shows are always a feather in your cap. Take a look…

Art & Technology

Gallery 31 of the Corcoran College of Art + Design is pleased to announce the call for submissions for its new show dedicated to art and technology to be displayed from August 6 – September 2, 2012. The exhibition is aiming to explore the phenomenon of innovative technologies in relation to contemporary art (or: the relation of contemporary art to new technologies). This call seeks works addressing the recent tendency of personal fabrication of things, labs and the emergence of do-it-yourself communities. *Editor’s Note: This Call does not appear on the College’s website, but you can bookmark this page for future reference.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All media. Although the emphasis will be on exploring the art practices when a machine makes a vast amount of work, artists working in a way that opposes technology may also apply. (They are interested in yarn bombing, etc.)

ENTRY FEE: None

ABOUT THE GALLERY: GALLERY 31 is the Corcoran’s dedicated exhibition space for the Corcoran College of Art + Design.

CALL for ENTRIES: Nectar Magazine

Posted on February 27, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

DEATH,
squashed

I love winter squash; butternut is my favorite, I think. Did you know that winter squash is actually grown in the summer? Yep. Have I told you this before? It gets its name from the fact that when most summer squash is dead and gone, the tough rind of winter squash allows it to be stored, and eaten, all winter long. This next call takes an interesting look at death, sort of. Investigate…

CALL for ENTRIES: Through That Which is Seen

Posted on February 18, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

WHITE RICE
is boring

I confess that I occasionally have dreams that a model of my kitchen will end up in the Smithsonian like Julia Childs’ did. As glamorous as that sounds, everyone would see my 3 mismatched Fiestaware and shelves and shelves of white dishes. Think white rice. Yawn. Methinks life-size dioramas are a difficult tribute to pull off well. This next Call doesn’t require life size. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for Through that Which is Seen, an curated show brought to you by Root Division (Sacramento, CA). The entry fee is incredibly low, and the thematic content is fascinating. Don’t miss this one…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Through That Which is Seen

Through That Which is Seen will represent a range of interpretations of the diorama on all scales.

They aim to exhibit pieces borrowing from museums’ use of the diorama as a means to inform and educate to works that turn the more conventional notion of diorama on its head. From natural history displays to shoebox book reports…

The word diorama often conjures
memories from childhood.

However, dioramas can be found dotted throughout our daily lives. Think about storefront displays, televisions, and medicine cabinets, to name a few. Does a shower become a performative diorama when in use? Or a car?

ELIGIBILITY:
All artists

MEDIA:
The co-curators are open to
reviewing any and all
possible interpretations
of dioramas.

DEADLINE:
March 19, 2012

ENTRY FEE:
$10 for 4 images

CURATOR:
Alexis Arnold & Lauren Hartman

CALL for ENTRIES: Las Vegas is Calling!

Posted on February 17, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

Call me a
TART

I googled “quince tree,” yesterday. I am moving to a bigger house closer into downtown Gatlinburg, and my new house has two quince trees. Related to the apple and pear, quince is added in small quantities to jams and sauces made of other fruits to add a little tartness. Gotta love the tarty. Maybe this next show will add a little TART your artistic resume. It is worth investigating…

FRIED not BAKED,
chickadee

Another Valentine’s day has come and gone without a gourmet candlelit dinner. In fact, I had fried chicken from deli section of my grocery store and waffle fries. Romantic, eh? Well, maybe my idea of romance is a bit different than you would expect. I spend a lot of my life taking great care of the nutritional value and creativity of my meals. Love means making it okay to eat fried chicken (not baked) in my pajamas while watching Biggest Loser. No really. This next Call is a new twist on love-themed shows. Is this one for you?

CALL for ENTRIES: Soho Chelsea Artist Residency

OODLES of NOODLES

Ramen noodles are a marvel. I am amongst the millions that have been on a sleeping-on-someone’s-couch budget at one point in my life.

NO FLAVOR,
please

I am ever so slightly addicted to bananas. I like them so green that they are almost crunchy. I don’t LOVE their taste, but if I don’t have one for three or four days, I really miss them. Weird, I know. Something I am not addicted to? Artificial banana flavoring. Ugh. Save the fake, plastic-y flavor for a fake monkey. Okay, that was too easy. This next call has no entry fee…and even a monkey. No joking…

CALL for ENTRIES: Southworks

Posted on February 5, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

Just PEACHY!

Fried chicken livers remind me of Georgia. I grew up in Georgia on fried foods and my weight IS under control, my cholesterol good. Of course, it could be argued that my relatively good health is because I left Georgia at age 14, ha. There are lots of healthy, wholesome places to eat in the Peach State; my relatives’ homes just aren’t among them. I don’t think you’ll have the pleasure of scarfing down fried chicken livers at the opening for this next Georgia-based call, but I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you…

FAIR to FIG

If you can say nothing else for my taste in food, it is fair and open to all. I will try almost any culinary invention once. And most of them (even the bad ones) I will give a second and/or third chance. But if you haven’t won me over after three attempts, I’m likely done. I give art, artists and their little-known media the same respect. This next call offers consideration for “any” media. I wonder if they REALLY mean that. Let me know…

TAMALE ME,
something good…

I almost moved to Kentucky because of a pickle/tamale factory. Have I told you this story? I know, I should search my posts before I write. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, for once it ISN’T about the pickles or tamales. Nope. I looked into the Paducah Artist Relocation program and fell in love with a pickle/tamale factory in need of rehab.
