CALL for ENTRIES: Opulent Mobility 2019

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

Learn more about the 2019 Opulent Mobility exhibit!

practice what you PEACH

I reject the notion that extravagant dishes require exotic foods. I find that the simplest foods, treated extravagantly, remain my favorites.  Have you ever had a vanilla-poached peach? Top it with  freshly whipped cream and a drizzle of raw honey, and it makes for the the most opulent dessert (or breakfast) you could ever want.  I’ve spent many a year unimpressed by this simple stone fruit to only to realize it was my own lack of imagination at fault.

This next Call addresses mobility devices and their common ground the the common peach — a need for re-imagining.  Each year when this Call is announced, I revel in the notion of opulent mobility.  You need look no further than the work of curator A. Laura Brody as inspiration.  At its core, this show suggests that not only are we enough, but that we should celebrate our enough-ness.  That we deserve to move through our lives, through this world with a personal sense of opulence, with purposeful, extravagant creativity.  Sit with the notion of this Call and see where it takes you.

Check out this Call for Entries from curator A. Laura Brody for Opulent Mobility 2019.  This year the exhibit will be at the Dora Stern Gallery in New Jersey.  $20 Entry, 40% commission & a unique curatorial theme.  Stretch your creative muscles with this Call!

CALL for ENTRIES: Urban Legends

Remember to enter the $5 Art Contest!TURKEY

I don’t eat turkey on holidays.  I’ve never liked the pressure of culinary conformity, or any other kind for that matter.  I usually have ham or duck.  Interestingly enough, I cooked a turkey the week before Thanksgiving this year because they were on sale.  But, all of the stories of people burning their houses down while attempting to deep fry their turkey don’t make me want to try that method.  I realize those stories are exaggerated to almost urban legend status, but I am simply not enticed.  I AM enticed by this next Call focused on  urban legends though…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Non-Fiction Gallery (Savannah, GA) for Common Knowledge, and exhibit exploring proverbial sayings, urban legends, folklore and catchphrases.  AND, the entry fee is only $20…

My son loves blueberries, and buying blueberries is a happy indulgence for me to supply for him.  I have been known to buy lots of blueberry-flavored foodstuffs, but I’m also an avid label reader.  I believe people have the right to know the actual identity of what we are eating.  And folks, blueberries are a hot mess in almost any form outside the actual blueberry.  Check out foodidentitytheft.com if you’re interested.  In the meantime, this next show is all about identity.  Check it out…

Work by Guest Juror Geoff Hargadon!CALL for ENTRIES:
Art/Identity

 

Art is an extension of the self, a combination of flesh and soul that is enriched by a variety of experiences, loves, histories, and hopes. Within the criss-crossing of lines, the pooling of paint, the spectacle of performance, the mechanical memory of the photograph, and the interactivity of video, one can catch a momentary glimpse of essential characteristics of personhood. They invite you to submit work of all media that examines identity in all its forms—the personal, the social, the revolutionary, the imaginary.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists residing in the US.

MEDIA: 2D, 3D or Time Media.

Work by Guest Juror Susan Sills!DEADLINE:  May 12, 2013

NOTIFICATION: May 20, 2013

ENTRY FEE: $25 for one entry of up to 3, $40 for 2 entries (total of 6).

JUROR: A resident of Somerville, MA, Geoff Hargadon is a multimedia artist who has shown across the country. His current project, Cash for Your Warhol, has caused a stir all over the world by blurring the lines of fact and fiction, self and society, in an uncertain economic climate.

Susan Sills was born and raised in Chicago and moved to the Boston area in 1973.  After receiving a Masters in Architecture from Harvard, Sills began her career as an architect and designer. In the early 1990’s she returned to painting and combined her innovative spirit with her training and experience.  This led to an endlessly evocative body of multimedia work.  Her artistic vision exists “somewhere between the safe, structured environment of the world around us and the chaos of the textures within us all”.

SALES: Work is For Sale By Artist. Gallery will provide introduction to interested parties.

My taste buds are aging well.  I can still tell the difference between Parmesan, Romano and Asiago cheeses–even in bad grocery-store-powdered form.  And, I have fallen newly in love with beets.  My art is getting better too.  Who knew?  Well, the Haggus Society knew; that’s who.  This next Call want to prove that we all get better with age.  This is a great opportunity!

Edges & Curves,
Nothing in Between

 

Last year, 2011, the Haggus Society presented the 1st annual Edges & Curves, Nothing In Between exhibition which successfully challenged the myth that older artists have little to no edge.

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to any artist 40 years and older

Read the Full Call from The Haggus Society!MEDIA:  2D (no larger than 32″ x 44 inches), small 3D (no larger than 14″ x 10″ x 8″inches).  They are considering opening up the exhibition to performance, music, spoken word/poetry. So, feel free to send those media as submissions, too.

DEADLINE:  July 4, 2012

ENTRY FEE:  $12.50 for up to 6 images for non-members.  Submission fees are waived for Haggus Society members in good standing.

JUROR:  Natalie Abrams’ work examines suspending moments in time; the physical and textural experience of those moments, the delicate beauty of our surroundings and the difficulty of preserving the present.  An environmentalist, Abrams’ abstract landscapes were first exhibited at the R&F Gallery in the three person show “Not Seeing the Forest”.

Learn more about Fractured Atlas!Using a technique as fluid and unpredictable as nature itself, led to the development of her highly sculptural ribbon paintings; pieces which blur the line between painting and sculpture. The ribbon works have been exhibited in national exhibitions including the Third Annual Encaustic Invitational, as a highlighted artist at Ball State University with Encaustic Works 07, as well as the 2010 book “Encaustic & Beyond”.

Abrams’ latest work further explores humanity’s relationship to our surroundings in the form of sculptural landscapes and topography, and the mirrored societal relationships therein. Development of this work into freestanding installation works will be the focus of her upcoming Affiliate Artist Residency with the McColl Center.

SALES:  The Haggus Society receives a 40% commission from all art sold. Please include this in your pricing. If a work is not for sale please indicate with NFS.
