& vinegar

Good food is all about balance, and it seems that a lot of commercial cooks and chefs are not cooking with a “full deck.”  The most common mistake?  A lack of acid.  A little lemon will transform your cheesecake from cloyingly sweet to perfectly delectable.  A little red wine vinegar will make your tuna salad memorable.  This next Call is looking for your take on working with less than a “full deck.”  Great theme…

I like my eggs over easy and my steak & tuna rare, maybe medium rare–depending on where I am.  In restaurants, I’m rarely able to order anything rare; however, at home where I have a clearer picture of the origin and handling, everything is rare.  The opportunity offered by this next Call is equally rare.  Please pay attention to this one…

Pimento cheese is known as the caviar of the South.  It is fundamentally made with American cheese which isn’t actually cheese.  So can you make authentic pimento cheese with a faux ingredient?  I’m taking pimento cheese back from the faux with my cheddar cheese only recipe. Faux ingredients = faux food.  Share your take on all things faux with this next Call.  Take a look…

Faux Real

 

Though the idea of the ‘real’ has a multitude of meanings, it has been endlessly interpreted by artists and holds particular significance in our ever-changing world.

Artists approach reality and its relationship to representation through numerous types of media and with many distinctive standpoints. The term ‘reality’ has been consistently redefined and broadened to include new realms, like the virtual, the personal, the unscripted, the digital, the hallucinogenic.

Non-Fiction Gallery is looking for works that explore the many facets of the concept of reality.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Open to all media

DEADLINE:  July 11, 2014

snack

I’m a night eater.  15 years or so ago, I began having a late-night snack before bedtime–a habit acquired while pregnant.  I’ve never been able to shake the late night cookies and chips and cereal.  My husband’s theory is that I have to fuel my nocturnal duties that revolve around problem-solving in my sleep.  I’ve quit trying to fight it. Now I’m just trying to improve my choices.  Cookies and cereal have been slowly replaced by cheese and nuts or citrus fruit.  I’m embracing the dark side, and this next exhibit does too.  Take a look…

Night Visions V

 

More than two-thirds of Americans live where they can no longer see the Milky Way galaxy because of light pollution. We have grown so isolated from night that in much of our culture it has become alien and fearful. NightVisions V seeks to re-open our positive connections to the natural night and to bridge the divide separating artistic from scientific perception, promoting the idea that science and art are two intertwined aspects of human experience.

MEDIA: Open to any media

JURORS:  Chicago binder, book & installation artist Karen Hanmer creates intimate, playful works that fragment & layer text and image to intertwine memory, cultural history, and the history of science.  Her work weds the ancient act of book binding with the high tech use of the computer to aid her process.  The intimate scale and the gestures of exploration required to travel through each piece evoke the experience of looking through an album, a diary, or the belongings of a loved one.  However, her works often take the forms of games or puzzles, and many include witty text.

Hanmer exhibits widely, and her work is included in collections ranging from Tate Britain and the Library of Congress to UCLA and Graceland.

AWARDS: Best of show $1000, 2nd Place $500 & 3rd Place $250.

PEANUT BUTTER

I wax nostalgic around holidays, and Mother’s Day made me think of pimento loaf.  When I was around 7, my father & I lived in Little Rock, Arkansas.  My Mom wasn’t around (that’s a long story for another time), and my Dad made all my lunches.  In his mind, pimento loaf was an appropriate lunch meat for a 7 year old.  At night, I would sneak to the bedroom door and whisper “peanut butter & jelly” while he prepared to make my lunch–subliminal influence.  I quit getting pimento loaf, and at least 3 days a week, I got Goober Grape®.  My Dad never mentioned it.  This next Call also conjures images of childhood for me.  Maybe my childhood wasn’t the standard.  Hmmm…

I had brown tomatoes at dinner tonight, and they were NOT rotten.  They were Kumatoes–a hybrid developed in Spain.  I noted they were a touch sweeter, but less exotic tasting than they appeared.  But, I can’t resist a weird fruit or vegetable, so I tried them as a part of a Caprese Salad.  Pretty, but forgettable. This next exhibit is all about Color as well; just make sure you don’t send pretty-but-forgettable work.  Take a look…
