CALL for ENTRIES: Verge Art Miami Beach

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

BANANAS

I love Cuban food. The first time I ate Cuban food was in a strip mall in Goose Creek, SC just outside Charleston …no kidding. With a strong military influence in the area before the shut down of the military base and the naval yard, international influence on food was pretty common. The best Cuban food I ever tasted was in Miami and is responsible for my love affair with plaintains. This next Call offers you an opportunity to sample some of the best food in the world during your time at this opening…

CALL for PROPOSALS: Smoking Mirrors in NYC

Posted on April 14, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

PICKLES
& ICE CREAM

Some foods just go together like peanut butter & chocolate, bacon & eggs, even pretzels & mustard. But sometimes, the best pairings are a surprise like french fries & mayo or chocolate & chili. This Call combines all the drama of modern dance with the interactive nature of installation artwork–a perfect pairing. This is a great opportunity to be a part of a two-week pop up gallery in New York City.

Check out the Call for Proposals for Smoking Mirrors from Kinematic Dance and A+ Productions. No entry fee and an uber-cool concept. Don’t miss out on this one… particularly if you are interested in installation work!

*Editor’s Note: If you have ever wanted to try your hand at installations, here is a free opportunity. Remember, all they can do is say no. If they do, send me the rejection letter, and you’ll get a free entry into the $2 Art Contest. See? You win either way.

CALL for PROPOSALS:
Smoking Mirrors

Kinematik Dance and A+ Productions are soliciting proposals for exhibitions at Smoking Mirrors for Fall 2011 in New York City. Artists will collaborate with choreographers and dancers in creating an interactive, multi-sensory performance environment. Winning proposals will be sponsored for a two-week pop up gallery showing and two performance events with reception. Artistsʼ will receive exhibition opportunity, publicity, and documentation of work.

THEME: Smoking Mirrors explores how identity has become synonymous with pixilation in our fast-paced, media-driven world. How have our identities become pixilated through advanced technology and social media and which stages of fragmentation have led us to multiply ourselves? Has this shift given us more freedom and tools to define our own existence or has it, in fact, limited our capacity to simply exist?

From the invention of the mirror to the iPhone, various devices have helped us create replicas of ourselves, often blurring the lines between what is real, imaginary, and symbolic. In this event we are inspired to journey through the various stages of fragmentation to the inevitable negotiation of identity. Starting with the uninterrupted experience of wholeness we move through the detachment of the self by reflection, society, traditional media (advertising) and hypermedia (social networking).

ELIGIBILITY: Open to installation artists, set designers, multi-media and video artists, and lighting designers.

MEDIA: Smoking Mirrors is the first in a series of “Performance Design” events that incorporates dance, design and multi media arts. Part performance, part art installation, and part party, the event will include 60 minutes of dances pieces that fuse movement, technology, imagery, and the unusual use of props. Performances will take place in various areas of a created multisensory and interactive environment, through which the audience will move to view performances.

DEADLINE: May 5, 2011

ENTRY FEE: There is no entry fee.

SPONSORED BY: Kinematik Dance provides visually stimulating and provocative choreography that fuses elements of urban dance such as Hip Hop, House, Breaking and Vogue with contemporary modern dance. Through a synthesis of artistic elements such as movement, visual imagery, lighting and the unusual use of props, Kinematik reconstructs the conventional by addressing common social stereotypes and engaging audiences to rethink existing notions about urban and popular culture. Kinematik aims to vitalize the concert dance world with a fresh new perspective on the conceptual street dance movement.

A+ Productions is a multi-disciplinary production company that seeks to foster integrated, creative communities by creating a platform for dynamic collaborations between visual and performing artists. In our city (NYC) of nearly 10 million people artists too often operate autonomously and independently within their respective communities. By pairing choreographers with designers, architects, sculptors, poets, and the like, A+ promotes a more communal approach to art-making that enhances the work of each artist while making dance more visible and accessible to the general public.

CALL for SUBMISSIONS: Social Rejection

Posted on April 7, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

A-SPARE-AGUS ME

I reject very few foods, but canned asparagus is near the top of my list. Fresh asparagus is a happy, grassy, bright veggie that reminds me of spring when served ice cold after being blanched or roasted served with a little balsamic vinegar reduction. Yum. Canned asparagus is gray, salty, slimy, and unworthy of being purchased. Rejected. Feeling rejected yourself? Vent a little frustration by participating in the Call for and exhibit all about being rejected. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Submissions for Social Rejection, an all-hung exhibit of rejection letters. I know you’ve got them, folks, because you’ve been sending them to me. Here’s your chance to put a Canadian show on your resume too.

CALL for SUBMISSIONS: Social Rejection

Independent Curator, Clayton Windatt is seeking your letters of rejection for display in his new exhibition Social Rejection.

All artists have received rejections; some more frequently than others. The guilt, shame, pain and isolation that an artist feels when they receive a rejection letter can seem insurmountable. This project will empower artists that have been rejected by publicly acknowledging the hostile environment that the arts councils have created.

By exhibiting rejection letters from artists, collectives and organizations, this exhibition will address the stressful condition imposed on the artistic majority by the elite few. Artists participating in this exhibition will be conforming to non-conformity and experiencing the empowerment of embracing their worthlessness.

ELIGIBILITY: Rejection letters can be submitted by artists from all regions, disciplines and backgrounds, collectives and organizations. These letters will be adhered to the walls, ceiling and floor, to cover every surface of each exhibition space Social Rejection exhibits at. A roster of all participating artists will be presented at the rear of the exhibition venue acknowledging the participants, enabling acceptance through rejection.

DEADLINE: June 1, 2011

NOTIFICATION: All Hung Exhibit

ENTRY FEE: Participants are asked to pay a small fee ($10 payable to “Social Rejection”) to help cover costs of creating and maintaining each exhibition as well as the costs of publicizing the event. Letters must be in English or French – there is no funding for additional translation services.

CURATOR/ARTIST: Clayton Windatt is an artist, curator and outspoken advocate for artists’ rights. He holds a BA in Fine Art from Nipissing University and received his Graphic Designer certification from Canadore College. He contributes actively to several provincial and regional organizations as a writer, designer, and curator and is an active visual and media artist. Clayton’s current curatorial vision explores the unclear nature of the funding world, peer assessment committees and what constitutes acceptance.

NO LETTERS WILL BE RETURNED. If you need to retain your originals, please send photocopies.

COMMISSION: No artist fees will be paid to any participants during this exhibition. This is an act of political aggression towards the arts councils of Canada. This statement will communicate the anguish that artists experience as a result of being rejected.

Please send letters to:

Clayton Windatt
ATTN: SOCIAL REJECTION
P.O. Box 23022
North Bay, Ontario CANADA
P1B 4K6

FIRST VENUE: gallerywest is a space for contemporary art, located at 1332 Queen Street West, Toronto, Ontario. They will host the premiere of Social Rejection on July 7th at 7pm! Everyone is invited to come and see rejection letters from dozens of artists from all skill sets and backgrounds plastered together on the walls.

For complete details, Read the Full Call!

Editor’s Note: Whether or not you submit your rejection letters, take a few moments to explore Clayton Windatt’s site. He is certainly living OUT LOUD–a lesson we could all learn.

CALL for ENTRIES: About Face

Posted on January 11, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

FISHY FACE

I have more than one friend that won’t eat food with a face… which should make her a vegetarian on moral grounds, right? Well, while out to lunch with one of them many years ago, my friend ordered fish. I promptly reminded her that she didn’t eat food with faces and that fish definitely have faces. She looked at me as seriously as possible and said, “I’ve looked into a fish’s eyes. They have no story to tell. There’s nothing going on up there. Bring on the tuna.” This next Call will require that your face tell a story.

Check out this Call for Entries from the Annmarie Sculpture Garden (an affiliate of the Smithsonian Institute) for About Face. The entry fee is only $20 for up to four pieces, and this is an excellent opportunity to put your best face forward. Take a look!

CALL for ENTRIES: About Face

About Face explores the artist as storyteller. How does an artist develop and arrange the elements of a good story—character, setting, plot, conflict, climax, and resolution—through the format of a portrait? Though we all have a story to tell, what is gained or lost when we are rendered through an artist’s point of view? Do the completed works represent the person we are, the person we strive to be, or the character the artist sees? How do traditional and new media types affect the impact of a portrait? To this end, the jury seeks portraits that tell a compelling story in a visually interesting way.

About Face will be installed in the spacious Mezzanine Gallery of Annmarie Sculpture Garden’s Arts Building. With over 3300 sq ft of exhibition space, moveable walls, high ceilings, tile floors, an Arakawa hanging system, Internet access, and electricity, the Mezzanine Gallery can accommodate all sizes and types of installations. A few outdoor works will also be considered for inclusion in About Face.

ELIGIBILITY: All media types are welcome. The exhibition is open to all artists age 18 and older working in the U.S. Video entries must be submitted on DVD, playable on QuickTime or RealPlayer, and no more than 30 minutes in length.
DVD or computer based works must be exhibited on equipment provided by artist. Internet access is available. Bases and pedestals must well-balanced and sturdy. Annmarie has a limited number of bases available, please inquire. All frames must be black or silver and simple in design. All works that will be hung on the wall must have brackets that work with the Arakawa hanging system. More information on this system will be provided upon acceptance.

DEADLINE: March 1, 2011 is the deadline for your application.

NOTIFICATION: Artists will be notified of final acceptance status via email by March 7, 2011.

ENTRY FEE: Artists must submit a $20 non-refundable entry fee for up to four entries. Entry fee must be paid by check, money order, or credit card. Each entry must be submitted with three images of the artwork, including one overall view of the artwork, one detail shot, and one installation shot.

ABOUT the ANNMARIE SCULPTURE GARDEN: An affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, Annmarie is a thirty-acre public sculpture garden and arts center located in scenic Solomons, Maryland, on the Chesapeake Bay. The sculpture garden features a walking path which meanders through the forest, past permanent and loaned sculpture, including more than thirty works on loan from the Smithsonian Institution and the National Gallery of Art. The garden also presents a variety of special events, gallery shows, and engaging public art programs. The new Studio School offers creative classes taught by a talented faculty. The award-winning Arts Building, which opened in May ‘08, is a 15,000 sq.ft. museum-grade exhibition space that includes two large galleries, a gift shop, café, and a sunny patio that offers lovely views of the outdoor sculpture.

ARTIST RESIDENCY: Roswell, New Mexico

Posted on October 21, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

LIKE EGGS…
IN THE HOURGLASS

The thought of a little more time with family at breakfast or dinner is a dream in my household. For now we are grouchy, non-speaking, egg-gulping, panic-stricken and running late during weekday mornings, but weekends are full of blue-berry pancakes and eggs benedict.

Are you looking for the gift of time? Check out the 12-month residency opportunity in Roswell, New Mexico that offers space, time, and even a stipend! Don’t miss it…

ARTIST RESIDENCY
OPPORTUNITY:
Roswell, New Mexico

Well known by artists as the “Gift of Time”, the Roswell Artist-in-Residence Program was established in 1967 to provide gifted studio based visual artists with the unique opportunity to concentrate on their work in a supportive, collegial environment for a whole year. This “gift of time” allows artists to work without distraction in an effort to break new ground and focus on individual goals.

The Roswell Artist-in-Residence Program serves as a contemporary counterpoint to the traditional arts of the Southwest, reinforces the Program’s interest in strengthening the vitality of art in New Mexico and has been a catalyst in broadening community understanding of contemporary art.

CURRENT DEADLINE: December 1, 2010

MEDIA: In-residence grants are offered to artists involved in painting, drawing, sculpture, printmaking, photography, installation and other fine art media. Grants are not made in the disciplines of performance art or production crafts.

HOUSING & STUDIO FACILITIES: The studios are large, open spaces that measure approximately 20’x25’x10′. These areas are well-lighted and convertible to the artist’s requirements within reason. The printmaking facility is a small, fully operational studio – basically lithographic/etching in nature.

Artists are housed in a complex of six houses and 10 studios located on forty acres of land. Each artist is provided with a house that can amply accommodate either a single person or a family. Rent, utilities (except telephone), repairs and maintenance costs are borne by the Program. Houses are furnished with major furniture items, appliances and utensils. (continued below)

STIPEND: A stipend, or living allowance, of $800 per month is offered along with $100 per month for every dependent living with the grantee. Currently, the cost of art materials is borne by the grantee.

For more information about the Roswell Artist-in-Residence Program, contact: Stephen Fleming, RAIR Program Director by phone: (575)622 6037 or e-mail them at: stephen@rair.org .
