CALL for SUBMISSIONS: Flink12

Posted on May 13, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

DAIRY ME

Remember when ice cream treats came 12 to a box? Then it was 10. Then 8. Now I pay $4.99 for a box of 6. Does that mean I’ll quit eating ice cream? Unlikely. I think this is the same psychology behind cigarette tax too, ha. Well, at least eggs still come by the dozen. (We won’t even discuss Eggland’s Best new 1/2 dozen cartons.) Twelve is the perfect number for this next Call too. A flink to be exact…

Check out this Call for Submissions from Flink12 for the Global Icon Art Competition. There is no fee to enter, and your work could be viewed by millions if Flink12 turns into the new Facebook. It is worth a try…

*Editor’s Note: Do not be alarmed. My beautifully crafted, sophisticated gourmet image has temporarily bitten the dust to make way for Saturday morning, cartoon-like graphics. We will return to your regularly scheduled programming tomorrow.

CALL for SUBMISSIONS:

CALL for ENTRIES: Digital Unity

Posted on May 12, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

FOOD for the EYES

I love food fusion. I’ve eaten in some crazy creations from Tex-Mex crossed with Filipino food to Cajun food crossed with Asian food. Recently I had Rueben eggrolls. Delicious. Not everyone embraces the new of it all. Digital art is like food fusion… not everyone loves it. This call gives you a great chance to participate in a digital show, and it just happens to be in Berlin. Bonus…

Check out this Call for Entries for Digital Unity sponsored by ANNEX:art and Förderkreis Dorfkirche Lübzow. The entry fee is a standard $35 (approximately), and it could get you an international show! This is not an online show…

*Editor’s Note: This show is two-part… the Call for Entries AND a separate Artist Residency to install all the accepted pieces. Enter your work (and maybe even you) could be on its way to Berlin. This Call is a little odd, and the website is not incredibly clear. If you are excited about a call for digital work, email the curator, Dr. Jörg Bauer, with your questions.

CALL for ENTRIES:
Digital Unity

The concept of this project will be to present various forms of digital art in a unified digital installation. Artist submissions are open to digital photography, digital audio installation, digital collage, digital painting and digital video clips. Each entry will be evaluated on its own merit with respect to inclusion in the final digital installation.

At least 10 digital images will be chosen for printing and inclusion in an exhibition which will be part of the installation. All other digital materials will be utilized and included in a digital projection project as part of an artist residency and ultimately included in the final installation. The installation will be presented to the public in Lübzow, Germany on October 2, 2011 with the entire installation then being presented in a Berlin gallery beginning on October 15, 2011.

Artists are welcomed to travel to Germany for the opening event and may also be interested in participating in installing the installation during the week leading up to the vernissage on October 2nd. One artist will additionally be chosen to compile the digitalized material into the final installation. Applications for this residency are separate from the submission of artwork for inclusion in the installation. Any artist wishing to take part in installing the show can inquire about the availability and terms of accommodations for this project.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Digital photography, digital audio installation, digital collage, digital painting, and digital video clips.

DEADLINE: August 31, 2011

NOTIFICATION: September 15, 2011

ENTRY FEE: After completion of the online application each artist is required to submit the non-refundable application fee of €25.00 (approximately $35 USD) via PayPal (due to security reasons only PayPal payments will be accepted). No entries will be reviewed prior to receipt of the application fee.

SALES: 15% commission

CALL for ENTRIES: LACDA Top 40 Juried Exhibit

Posted on May 10, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

CHEESY GOODNESS

I once tried to make a “Top 10” list of my favorite foods. Then I decided maybe a “Top 40” would be easier. I gave up trying when I couldn’t even fit them into a “Top 100” list.

CALL for ENTRIES: Collage, Digital & Mixed Media

Posted on April 30, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

FREAKY & FRUITY

With rare exception, I am not a fan of fruit and meat combinations. Keep your pineapple off my pizza and out of my stirfry. Lemons and limes are acceptable, and figs and plums are only allowed in Mediterranean food. While I don’t care to mix my food groups sometimes, mixed media in artwork is a different story. This Call gives you an opportunity to show your best mixed media work (or collage and digital). Don’t miss this opportunity for artist representation too!

Check out this Call for Entries from Upstream People Gallery for the 13th Annual Collage, Digital & Mixed Media Juried Online Art Exhibition.

Bonus: only 20% commission! Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: I am sorry, Dave. 🙂 If you look at the comments on the CultureHall post, I assured him that I would take it easy on the online gallery calls. But, this one was already written… and a year of representation with really low commission will work for some of you…

CALL for ENTRIES: Axis Gallery Annual Juried

Posted on April 25, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

RECIPE for SUCCESS

Like many of you, I frequently “wing it” in the kitchen. I like the idea of cooking with whatever you have on hand and making adjustments according to taste along the way. However, while editing a recipe card for The Lodge at Buckberry Creek recently, I realized there is a certain comfort in knowing the exact amount of cream and vanilla in bread pudding. There is comfort in not guessing the temperature or constantly checking the oven to see if your concoction is ready. Take comfort in the fact that the Call a well-established show with lots of room for research. Time to create your own recipe…

CALL for ENTRIES: Byte Gallery in Transylvania

Posted on March 30, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

BE BULGAR!

I love that more exotic foods are available in virtually any grocery store. I live in a pretty small town, but because we have a large tourist population, the grocery store selections are a little better. With Spring just around the corner, tabbouleh salad is calling my name. Ten years ago, I would had to have gone in search of an ethnic or gourmet market and paid $10 for a bad boxed mix. Now it is as simple as taking a trip to my local Food City. Once again, my food world has intersected with my art world… this Call for Entries is a great example of new ideas in art accessibility. No invitation to this opening is necessary. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for the 2011 Spring Exhibition at The Byte Gallery–an interactive kiosk at Transylvania University in Kentucky. This show is free to enter, and I love the accessibility feature.

In other words, these should not be recordings of vocal or instrumental acoustic compositions. It is certainly acceptable, however, that works may be derived from acoustic sound sources.

The Video Music category is for works that explore non-narrative abstraction with equal emphasis on electro-acoustic music/sound art and moving images. The video should be accompanied by stereo audio. The Dramatic Video category is theatrical work of short video/film where digital technology as an essential part of the creative process. The video should be accompanied by stereo audio, unless it is intentionally silent. If the work includes sound, it must be stereo. The Animation category is for video works that explore non-narrative abstraction with primary emphasis on moving images. Works may or may not include sound. If the work includes sound, it must be stereo.

DEADLINE: Submissions must be received no later than April 14, 2011.

ENTRY FEE: There is no entry fee.

TOE-MAH-TOE

I absolutely love heirloom vegetables. I love the idea of preserving the genetic “bloodline,” if you will, of a fruit or vegetable easily distinguished from the genetically modified, hot-house varieties we are all used to eating. However, I can admit that sometimes a tomato is just a tomato. This next call recognizes that sometimes art is just art. They don’t want your CV, resume, statment or anything else–just your art.

CALL for ENTRIES: Digital Concept and Construct

Posted on March 2, 2011March 2, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

EAT MY PIXELS

I am annoyed by late-night fast food commercials because my will power doesn’t need the test. But my child falls for those digitally-enhanced, staged food product advertisements everytime. I cannot tell you how many cereals I have bought for him because they “look yummy,” only to find out they are artificially-flavored cardboard. This next Call for Entries shows the positive side of digital manipulaton.

Check out this Call for Entries from Darkroom Gallery (converting from the Vermont Photo Space Gallery) called Digital Concept / Digital Construct. Enter your work for as little as $20. Don’t forget Dark Room Gallery offers free framing & matting on accepted entries!

Editor’s Note: I know how many of you roll your eyes every time you read that the media for a show excludes computer-generated work, new media and digitally manipulated artwork and photography. If you want more opportunities and to be accepted into the same shows with mainstream traditional media, DO NOT let shows like this one pass you by. This show is made for you. No whining… just do it.

CALL FOR ENTRIES: Digital Concept / Digital Construct

This is a digital world. We are surrounded, engulfed by, and reliant upon digital media. It has become a way of life and a way of seeing. As digitally manipulated images become the norm, their fantasy perspectives are becoming the new reality. Is there such a thing as truth and lies in digital art photographs, or is it all just possibility?

Our capacities and aptitudes for creating digital photographic art far exceed what we had imagined. We’re tempted by new technologies – camera phones and point and shoots, the next 80 megapixel medium format digital back, the newest apps, the latest updates – we cannot help but push the proverbial envelope (shadow/highlight recovery, adjustment brushes, the curves line, layer blending modes).

There is art in successful digital imaging and manipulation.

Vincent Dixon, the Wade Brothers, David LaChapelle, the collaborations of Warren Du Preez and Nick Thornton Jones, and our Juror, award-winning Photoshop expert Suzette Troche-Stapp are elevating the digitally manipulated photograph to the next level. How do you use it to develop your concepts and achieve your constructs? Whether you are enhancing or altering reality, creating fantasy, retouching, compositing, constructing, how has digital informed your imaging?

JUROR: A photographer since the age of sixteen, Suzette Troche-Stapp has been working in digital imaging since its inception in the 1980’s. Recognized throughout the industry, Suzette was recently named one of the “Top 40 Photoshop Experts,” awarded the “Guru Award” for excellence in Photoshop by NAPP, and nominated for the “Photoshop Hall Of Fame” several years in a row.

Her images are seen in national ad campaigns, editorial beauty and fashion features, and her celebrity images have been broadcast to millions on shows like “The View”, “The Late Show”, and “Kathy Griffin’s Life on the D-List”.

Troche-Stapp is also a workshop facilitator and author, offering tutorials, several published articles and an award-winning book “The Glitterguru on Photoshop: from Concept to Cool.” The Dark Room Gallery is so pleased to have Suzette Troche-Stapp’s digital expertise and commercial experience as Juror for “Digital Concept.Digital Construct.”

PHOTO SUBMISSIONS:

Age: Entrants must be at least 18 years old. If younger, a parent or legal guardian may make the submission for you.

Ownership: All submitted photos must have been taken by the photographer making the entry.

If you are a parent or legal guardian submitting for a minor, please make it clear on the submission form.

Digital Submissions: All submissions must be made by digital files through:

1. Upload on VermontPhotoSpace.com or

2. Sent via email to submissions (at) VermontPhotoSpace.com. This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it along with an application form. There is a $5.00 surcharge for email entries.

3. Images should be as large as possible but no larger than 1280 pixels on the longest side, type jpg – set to the highest quality. DPI can be set to any number, but if you must specify something to go with 72 dpi.

FEES: Up to three images may be submitted for a fee of $20 US for on-line submission and $25 for email submission. Additional images may be submitted for an additional $5 US per image.

DEADLINE: Images and payment must be received by midnight EST on April 4, 2011.

RIGHTS: Photographers retain all rights to their work, except for submissions accepted for exhibition: artists grant Dark Room Gallery/Vermont Photo Space the right to use their images to promote the exhibition on the website and for inclusion in an exhibit catalog.

Darkroom Gallery provides free matting and framing of accepted entries for the duration of each of our exhibitions, subject to standard sizes. Photographers set their own prices if they wish to sell their work, and retain all rights.

QUEEN OF THE WORLD

I want to do everything. I don’t sleep much because I cannot turn my brain off. I am constantly thinking of the souflee I’ve never made, the exotic vacation I haven’t taken and the art I haven’t produced. It isn’t a sad sort of sleepless anxiety.
