my PIE!

If food were a mural, I think it would be a giant, thin-crust pizza.  You can put anything into it or seperate it into sections.  It is nutrionally dense and can certainly say something about the artist that creates it.  The thin-crust part?  Well, in both art and pizza, I think it is about the toppings, not what they’re on.  This next Call wants your mural ideas (pizza or non-pizza related) and more.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the PAC Gallery (Cincinnati, OH)!  Don’t miss this chance to win a solo ort 2-man show.  This is an unusual way to get a show, but I think that makes it worth at least a look.  How ’bout you?

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists (professionals, students, amateurs).

*Editor’s Note:  This is a mural opportunity in Cincinnati which may seem regional to some; however, if you look at the awards, some of you may feel that the required travel to be the winner is worth the entry.  And, being a finalist could actually work better for you than winning.  Explore…

DEADLINE:  December 31, 2011

NOTIFICATION:  January 15, 2012

INTERNATIONAL CALL for ENTRIES: Gothic

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!FEELING SLUGGISH?

Contrary to the sentiment I usually espouse, not all food has to look appealing to be tasty.  Escargot is a tasty treat that is high in protein and low in fat (assuming you forego the butter sauce), but the diet of the wild-caught snail in nauseating.  Eating escargot, even in the most upscale environment, is a little like Halloween in your mouth–delightfully scary.  This next Call is looking for the macabre as well…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Orange County Center for Contemporary Art also known as OCCCA (Santa Ana, CA) for Gothic, an international exhibit.  The variety of artwork that can be submitted is wide open, and this theme isn’t as common as you might think.  Take a look…

YOU FEEL LIKE A NUT

Today, I miss peanut butter.  When I was pregnant, peanut butter was a wonder food.  It had just enough protein, sugar and fat to transform my mood, one tablespoon at a time.  In celebration of my in-laws 50th Anniversary, I am headed on vacation to a much warmer clime…just in time for Christmas.  You know what is not great about a warm vacation at Christmas?  Being in a bathing suit at Christmas… when I should be eating peanut butter cookies and peanut butter pie and everything else that won’t run from me.  Oh well, my pregnancy days are long over, so I’m gonna lay off the peanut butter for a couple of months.  This next Call involves a completely different kind of womb.  Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Collaboration

I am an only child, and I don’t share well… in the kitchen or any where else.  I am the mother of an only child, and I have tried to teach him to be more tolerant and better able to share.  But honestly, he’s better at it than me.  My husband does most of the cooking in our house, and he is much better at sharing than I am as well, ha.  He kindly allows me to cook for the family in his kitchen on occasion, and every once in a while, we collaborate.  This next Call wants your collaborations.  Play nice, folks…

CALL for ENTRIES: Collaboration

 

Learn more about Collaborations at BAG!Christo and Jeanne Claude. McCartney and Lennon.  Cookies and milk. In collaboration, sometimes a sum is greater than its individual parts.  Compelling works of art have often been produced by the meeting of two creative minds, or as a result of one artist’s exposure to the work of another.

Historically, schools of art were a breeding ground for new ideas, where artists could learn from their masters and grow from one another, bringing the large world in a little closer. To share images and ideas over distances was difficult, but expected as part of one’s training. It was simply a stepping stone to individual fame.

In the age of Flickr, Facebook, and hostyourdomain.com, artists may now share their work with the world at the touch of a button. We can choose to bridge an ocean in an instant, or to isolate our work entirely. It is entirely yours to decide. So the choice to collaborate may now be deliberate; choosing to ‘share’ can be more profound than an RSS feed, more mindful than physical proximity, and more creative than working alone.

your work, your world & your vision with that of another artist?

What have you chosen to create together?

 

ELIGIBILITY:  All entries must be the combined work of two or more artists.  All artists are welcome to apply as long as your work can arrive in the gallery on time.

MEDIA:  Appears to be open to all media.

DEADLINE:  December 18th, 2011

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…

anyone?

I am always amazed by how a simple ingredient can be transformed into a magnificent dish.  Root vegetables are the perfect example.  Who would of thought that something that spent most of the time it has existed under the ground could be transformed into something beautiful, warm and nutty?  I think of a luscious crock of roasted carrot soup with a hint of ginger and nutmeg.  This Call wants you to contemplate transformation.  Give it a try…

MUSIC

When someone hums while eating, its a pretty good sign they like their food.  I had never witnessed anyone hum and eat until my son was about 3 years old.  Everytime he would sit down with his favorite foods, he would absent-mindedly start humming quietlyto himself.  He was completely unaware. We still call it “dinner music”  on the rare occasion we hear it.  My husband and I never made any real effort to stop it (even in restaurants) because, well, let’s face it…food makes me sing too, if only in my heart. (Check out this book about what your favorite bands eat on the road, pictured left.)  This next Call asks you to be inspired–by music, not food.  Take a look…

I become periodically addicted to snack foods.  Recently I’ve been fixated on Hot Buffalo Wing Pretzel Pieces from Snyder’s; however, an upcoming trip to a warm climate in the dead of winter means dragging out my bathing suit in December. Ugh.  So, I am trying to break the addiction by trying out new snack foods.  This week…whole grain fig newtons.  Wow, that’s a punch of flavor in a tiny package.  My logic is that the stronger flavor will result in less consumption.  We’ll see.  This next Call wants to see what can of wallop you can bring in a small package.  Take a look…

Call for Entries: Small Works Exhibition

Why is it that small foods seem more fragile and light?  They aren’t, necessarily.  Carrots are hearty root vegetables that are a staple of winter favorites like chicken noodle soup and beef stew.  However, slice them thin and ring a head of belgian endive, and I suddenly feel like I’m having delicate French food.  Size matters.  This next call for small works would be confirmation of that theory.  Take a look…

I understand that the taste of food is subjective.  It is all opinion. It is about your viewpoint.  I love the spicy, pungent flavors of Indian food, but I don’t care about the milder flavors of sushi or grilled chicken one way or the other.  But then again, I love the subtlety of almonds and don’t care for the pistachio’s “pow.”  Go figure.  This next Call wants to see it from YOUR viewpoint.  Take a look…
