CALL for ENTRIES: A.M.P.E.D.

Posted on January 15, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

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…

Check out this Call for Entries from A.M.P.E.D. (online) for their February Gallery. The entry fee is an impossibly low $10 for up to 5 pieces. If you are looking for a little web exposure, think about giving this one a try…

LAZY NIGHTS

I had salmon “en papillote” tonight. Fear not, it just means “in parchment”. Contrary to what you might think, it is not the French-cool-factor that leads me down the path of parchment cooking. (Okay, maybe a little.) The real reason is because it is healthy since it requires so little fat. Okay, that’s a lie too. The truth? There is virtually no cleanup. No dirty saute pans. Yep, laziness has lead to French cooking. Go figure. This next Call is all about the paper too. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Fort Worth Community ARTS Center (Fort Worth, TX) for 9 x 12 Works on Paper Show. The entry fee is only $5 per piece, and the commission rate is only 25%. This is a great opportunity…

CALL for ENTRIES: Global Mail Art

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

CALL ME
a chicken

I am obsessed with food because I love the TASTE of food. I am not into eating foods for the sake of saying that I have eaten them. Century eggs are a perfect example. I cannot think of a reason to eat a 100-year-old egg that has been preserved in clay, ash and lime. Telling me that the yolk has the smell of sulfur and ammonia does not make me any more likely to want to eat it. Someone else already has a job eating Bizarre Foods, so I’ll pass. This next Call is a much better way to celebrate 100 years. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from LULA Lake Worth Arts for the Global Mail Art Exhibition in celebration of Lake Worth Florida’s Centennial Celebration. This is an all-hung show that might help some of you pad your resumes. Plus, mail art is fun. I love to see what I can get the US Postal system to take….

CALL for ENTRIES:
Global Mail Art

Calligraphers and artists are invited to participate in LULA’s Global Mail Art Exhibition: Lake Worth 100. Mail art is the most democratic form of art. The direct exchange of creative work is a worldwide cultural movement that began in the early 1960’s and involves sending visual art on envelopes. Traveling the world through mail art can be a rewarding experience that operates within a spirit of “anything goes” which brings to the surface everybody’s creative side.

Decorated envelopes are one-of-a-kind artworks with the handwritten address becoming part of the work. Please join LULA and send a decorated envelope as we celebrate Lake Worth’s Centennial.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Mail art. Please use hand-executed lettering to address your envelope. You may use paint, ink, colored pencil, rubber stamps, or other standard media for illustrations on your envelope.

DEADLINE: November 15, 2013 (This is not a typo, folks. The deadline is over a year away!)

NOTIFICATION: Sign your envelope in the bottom right hand corner on back and include your email address and they will notify you of it’s arrival.

ENTRY FEE: None

JURY: None (all hung)

AWARDS: All mail art will be exhibited throughout Downtown Lake Worth during the Centennial year and linked to the Lake Worth Centennial web site, the City of Lake Worth web site, and can be viewed on the LULA’s Global Mail Art Exhibition: Lake Worth 100 Facebook page. In addition, daily arrivals will be posted on their blog.

CALL for ENTRIES: Prison Library Mail Art

Posted on August 8, 2012August 8, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

FOOD for… thought

The more you know about anything the better off you are about everything. I attended Johnson & Wales culinary school just long enough to learn sauce and knife skills that have been worth every penny I spent. I use those skills everyday of my life. (Although I should have stuck around for pastry classes so I could have made this book cake I found a Sprinkle Bakes!) This next mail art call offers you the opportunity to provide education that not only will provide prisoners a chance to learn which impacts their lives, but their chance to learn impacts YOU too. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for Postmarked 2012, California’s largest mail art exhibition that benefits the Prison Library Project. Jump start your creative juices with a mail art project today! Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: If you have read the personal portion of this post, CALL for ENTRIES: Prison Library Mail Art, anywhere other than by email subscription or on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com, it has been published without permission and is considered theft.

CALL for ENTRIES: Postmarked 2012

For many years, inmates from around the country wrote to the Prison Library Project, and they were amazed by the artwork that accompanied requests for books. These beautiful illustrations were their inspiration for a mail art exhibition and fundraiser.

Postmarked was developed eight years ago for the Claremont Forum’s Prison Library Project, which sends books free to prisoners in the U.S. upon their request. Providing education and opportunity to learn about mail art, view new and established mail artists’ works, and to participate in the experience of creating and sending mail art. Now in its 8th year, this exhibition is one of the largest in California.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all.

MEDIA: Mail art of any size and medium. ONLY the side with the official USPS Postmark/barcode will be displayed. Your mail art may be painted, stamped, collaged, printed, and/or otherwise decorated or constructed. It may be any shape and size that will go through the mail and receive an official postmark.

Your submission may get worn or torn through the mail, but the handling process is an important part of the theme. Only the side with the postmark can be displayed, due to space limitations, but the art doesn’t have to be limited to that side. You may include any message inside the envelope, which will be opened only by the person who purchases the art envelope. You may submit more than one piece… and begin sending now!

DEADLINE: Entries must be postmarked by September 30, 2012.

ENTRY FEE: None

WHY SUPPORT the PLP? “Rehabilitation was at one time a stated goal of the prison system. Today, funding for most educational and rehabilitation programs, including prison libraries, has been cut or completely eliminated. It is a distressing fact that today’s U.S. prisons are increasingly about punishing people and warehousing human beings, not about, rehabilitation, or education.”

“This is where PLP steps in. We believe that everyone deserves access to literature and educational materials, including people trying to work towards social change, self-empowerment or rehabilitation within the incarceration system.

The U.S. has less than 5 percent of the world’s population, but more than a quarter of the world’s prisoners.

Nearly one percent of American adults are incarcerated, the highest rate in the world, but many prisoners have little access to books or educational material. They face substantial barriers and are cut off from family and friends on the outside. While some prisons have libraries, many do not. Of those that do, access and selection can be extremely limited. Usually, prisoners are not allowed to receive books from friends or family. Thus, programs like ours are one of the few options available to these individuals.” –from the PLP website.

LUNCH,
Wonder-Full,
LUNCH!

My favorite lunch box had Wonder Woman on it. It didn’t matter what it had in it; even olive loaf tasted better when it came enclosed in a box with Linda Carter’s face on it. But between you and me, a sandwich made with Goober Grape always tasted better than olive loaf…then again, anything tastes better than olive loaf, ha. I hope the opening of this next Call serves hors d’oeuvres in lunch boxes. Save a Wonder Woman petit four for me…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Lunch Box Gallery (Miami, FL) for iPhoneography: Updated Visual Dialogs. The entry fee is low, and there’s no shipping of work either. And it is almost an all hung exhibit. Anybody need a Miami-based show on their artistic resume? So incredibly cool…

CALL for ENTRIES:
iPhoneography:
Updated Visual Dialogs

As an enabler for creative communication, iPhoneography has become a new medium for massive dialog, where images taken and edited with the iPhone are openly shared, sometimes instantly and some other times preceded by a complex creative process; regardless, is undeniable that all of these images project a part of the user’s self.

The exhibition “iPhoneography: Updated Visual Dialogs” as a whole will be an integral, heterogeneous and diverse expression of that avalanche of pixels that are being registered and shared in modern times; yet, in this immensity, every picture in the show becomes a window, a glimpse of the iPhoneographer’s vision, sensitivity and everyday life.

“iPhoneography: Updated Visual Dialogs” is inspired by Chase Jarvis famous quote…

“The Best Camera is the One That’s With You” ™.
Prove it!

ELIGIBILITY: All iPhoneographers, national and international over 18 years of age.

MEDIA:
Pictures must be taken and
edited on the iPhone
(not on any other device).

DEADLINE:
March 4, 2012

NOTIFICATION: All Hung (sort of). All iPhoneographers will be automatically accepted to be featured in the gallery, joining this collective representation of the massive use of the medium; yet, at least 1 out of 3 photographs by every iPhoneographer will be printed and shown.

ENTRY FEE: $15.00 is required for submitting up to 3 JPGs. You can submit more than once. Payment should be solely made via PayPal.

SALES: All works in the show must be for sale. Sale price for each image is determined by the artist. The gallery will take a 30% commission on all sales in the course of the exhibit.

GLUG-A-LUG

Why does beer come in six packs? My house is dotted with six packs. It isn’t like THAT. I am NOT a beer drinker, but my husband IS a beer brewer. My son’s room would be far less cluttered if beer were more efficiently packaged. Did I forget to mention that my husband stores his beer under my 12-year-old’s bed? Okay, I am going to stop before this sounds even worse. This call is a much better use of things that come in sixes. Take a look…

EGG ON MY FACE

I am a wierdo, admittedly. I am obsessed with food. I don’t drink coffee. I rarely wear pants. I won’t do much that can’t be done in four inch heels, and I don’t like prints…unless they are geometric. Oh yeah, that is just the tip of the weirdness iceberg. I like geometric food too…Gorgeous round egg yolks, little logs of goat cheese, and the perfect grid of a golden waffle. This next Call shares my love of the geometric. Take a look…

1) Register (pay):
http://lacda.com/juried/juriedshow.html

2) Upload images (separate upload for ea.):
http://lacda.com/upload.html

GALLERY STATEMENT: “Every year for 50 years the L.A. Municipal Gallery has held its ‘Open Call’ exhibit where any artist can show up with their art and an entry fee (to benefit gallery programs) and the piece is shown. The Los Angeles Center For Digital Art decided to launch an international experiment of the same nature where the artists upload images that are printed and hung by the gallery.

“The hundreds of works are displayed in a grid like installation (reminiscent of postcard art shows of the 1980’s) where every work submitted is exhibited. The usual (less than democratic) selection process where only the precious few are chosen is turned on its head in a curatorial anarchy where everyone gets to participate and the viewer is literally left to be the judge. The show represents a snapshot of a current moment in art history when digital imaging has reached the hands of the many, an age where culture belongs to the ‘mobblogers’ around the globe.

“From Thailand to Texas, amateur to academic, beautiful to banal and beyond the monumental quantity and variety of “Snap to Grid” becomes an aesthetic experience where each individual piece adds to an agglomerative effect that has a life of its own.”

KRAFTY KRAB

Be wary of free food. I get invited to lots of business receptions and charity auctions. The food isn’t terrible, just forgettable. Forgettable food is simply a waste of time. Don’t you have something better to do (or eat) than another Krab dip (the K is always the give away) or cheese ball? Me too. Here’s hoping the reception for this next Call results in better reception food. Fingers crossed…

ALL HUNG EXHIBIT: A Book About Death

Posted on September 24, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

SAD FOOD

Why is tuna cassarole, of all things, the “go to” dish to take to a family in mourning? I find tuna cassarole depressing, and depression is not supposed to be the end result of taking a covered dish to a family suffering loss. You are supposed to comfort them, make their life simpler by elimating the need to cook. I’m telling you… they throw all 14 of the tuna cassaroles in the trash. I’m just saying that if you feel the need to every bring food to my house, I prefer soup or chocolate anything. This next Call asks that you contemplate death…and maybe even the food that inevitably accompanies it. Investigate…
