CALL for ENTRIES: Abstraction

Posted on January 24, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

NOT THE SAME OLD
same old

My favorite restaurant added a whole new selection of side items from creamed cauliflower to spaghetti squash Parmesan. I love it when the old standard surprises you with a little refresher. This next Call is a perfect example. One of my favorite photography-specific galleries is offering their FIRST non-photographic solo show. So exciting…

Check out this Call for Entries for Spring Featured Artist – Abstraction from the Kiernan Gallery (Lexington, VA). The entry fee is higher than our norm, but remember…you’re gambling on a SOLO show.

CALL for ENTRIES:
Abstraction

Abstract art is an exploration of color, form, movement, or other intangibles that need not be wedded to a recognizable subject. Such work is limited only by the imagination. Non-figurative art, nonobjective art, and nonrepresentational art are all acceptable.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: The Kiernan Gallery seeks a body of 2D, non-photographic work that partially or fully obscure the recognizable world.

DEADLINE: February 20, 2013

NOTIFICATION: Approx. 8 days later

ENTRY FEE: 8 -10 pieces for $50

AWARDS: A one-month solo show. A feature on The Kiernan Gallery’s blog and website. An electronic show card designed and distributed by The Kiernan Gallery.

SALES: Kiernan Gallery no longer takes commission on sold works. But, they DO still have incentive to sell your work. The Kiernan Gallery was founded by an emerging artist, and recognizes the importance of selling work; they believe that if artists are paying a submission fee, the gallery should not also take a portion of the sale. They do reserve the right to negotiate 20% in order to make a sale.

CALL for ENTRIES: Fork & Knife

Posted on January 22, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

MODERATION
kills?

All of my life, some adult or the other has been saying “everything in moderation” to me. It has always been my favorite justification for pizza, brownies, and other I-should-know-better indulgences. Then I watched Forks over Knives and heard “moderation kills”. You know what killed me? Their version of moderation was eating dairy and meat. Really? Milk is an indulgence now? I have to admit, I have lowered my dairy and meat intake, but clearly, moderation is going to kill me. This next Call is NOT about moderation, but it IS about food. Investigate…

Check out this Call to Artists for Fork and Knife from the Linus Galleries (Pasadena, CA). The exhibit offers an online listing as well as the possibility for a showing in one of their brick and mortar galleries. Take a look…

TEA

PEPPER-O-MI

I vividly remember the first piece of pizza I ate. It was Totino’s (no, they aren’t a sponsor, but they should be). I thought it was the best thing I ever ate. I was around 4 years old. I still think the little cubes of pepperoni are ingenious, and I still turn to this junk food classic when I am sick. I realize it isn’t logical to crave junk food when you’re ill, but I do. Yes, I know this runs contrary to my whole foods mantra. Deal with it; I’m only human. Sometime there is nothing like a first. I’ve eaten a lot of gourmet pizza since then, but I still have the sweetest memories of the first. This next Call is an opportunity for you to be among this site’s first artists. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Urban

Posted on December 21, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

SU-SHI
or not to sushi

I used to think always equate urban settings with sushi; however, sushi can be found everywhere these days. I know of a town with a population of approximately 450, and even their local convenience store carries sushi. I may have to revert to the idea of street vendors or food trucks as urban food. Or maybe truly urban food is represented not by a specific type of food so much as a large variety of options. Hmmm. This next call wants to know how YOU define urban. Investigate this opportunity…

I really wish I had finished cooking school. I made it through knife and sauce skills, but in hindsight, I should have stuck around for baking and production classes.

Did you know that the chokecherry, blueberry, raspberry, blackberry and thimbleberry (pictured left) ALL grow wild in Minnesota? I could use some wild berries about now. My grocery store is getting to that point in the season that only citrus fruit has any taste and you’re best to stay clear of the seemingly gold-plated (based on the price), tasteless berries. This next Call hails from Minnesota, home of my current berry-envy. Take a look…
