CALL for ENTRIES: Fears & Phobias

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

A-SPARE-ME-AGUS

There was a time when I was scared of asparagus. No, really. My only childhood exposure to asparagus was with the canned variety–grayish green, slimy, salty, icky. I managed to go a span of TWO DECADES without eating it again. I had developed such a taste aversion that irrationally, somewhere in the back of my brain, I thought consuming it would have dire consequences. Luckily, someone served me cream of asparagus soup under the guise of cream of broccoli soup, and now I am addicted. Blanched and marinated in balsamic vinigrette then served cold…I could eat it every day. This next call seeks to explore YOUR fears. Anybody want to talk about bloody beets?

Check out this Call for Entries for the Target Gallery at the Torpedo Factory Art Center (Alexandria, VA) for Fears & Phobias. It is no secret that I love this gallery for their curatorial vision, but I think it is with good reason. Investigate for yourself…

CALL for ENTRIES: Mystery of Man

Posted on October 4, 2011October 4, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

TO THE MOON

I loved drinking Tang as a kid, did you? Formulated by General Foods Corporation, it was first marketed in powdered form in 1959. But sales of the powdered breakfast drink were poor until NASA used Tang on John Glenn’s Mercury flight, and subsequent Gemini missions. If space flight sold an orange-flavored, maybe this next call for scientific exploration can sell you artwork. Time for an experiment of your very own…

Check out this Call for Entries for Mystery of Man at The Satellite Galleries which are a part of Science Museum Oklahoma in Oklahoma City, OK. This is a classic question every artist tackles once in their career. Here’s YOUR shot…

CALL for ENTRIES: Mystery of Man

Mystery of Man is a multi-media exhibition open to all artists. Mystery of Man seeks to revive the classicist notion that both art and science are mediums of understanding. Throughout history, societies have employed both mediums to negotiate ideas of self and the meaning of existence. Through this lens, works selected will address one or many of the following questions:

-Where or what did we come from?
-Why are we here?
-What is reality?
-How do we interpret the self?

Works will be juried based on their relevance to the above questions and the quality of their craftsmanship.

ELIGIBILITY:
Open to all artists.

MEDIA: Multi-Media. *Editor’s Note: I think they meant multiple media or all-media because there are no guidelines that indicate true multi-media as a requirement.

DEADLINE:
January 11, 2012

NOTIFICATION: Febuary 7, 2012

ENTRY FEE: $35 for up to 3 works; additional entries are $10 each.

JURORS: As Executive Director of OVAC since 1999, Julia Kirt has worked to create resources for rural, urban, emerging and experienced artists and transform Oklahoma’s valuation of artists. She was honored as the “Emerging Leader” by the Americans for the Arts in 2008 and participated in the 2009 Leadership Institute organized by the National Alliance for Media Arts and Culture funded by The Andy Warhol Foundation. Kirt completed an MA in Art History at the University of Oklahoma and earned a BA in Communication Studies from Macalester College in St. Paul, MN.

Kelly Foshee received her MFA from the University of Tulsa in 2002. Her work has been exhibited in galleries and museums across the country. For many years, she has served as a teaching artist for the Philbrook Museum of Art, as well as an adjunct instructor of printmaking at the University of Tulsa. She currently works as the studio art and art history instructor for the Tulsa School of Arts and Sciences.

SALES:

CALL for ENTRIES: Art in the Underbelly

Posted on October 1, 2011October 1, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

UNDER
my BELLY?

I am not a beer drinker. Yet, I am married to a home brewer of beer. Go figure. I’ve never been fond of many beers with the exception of Red Stripe and Grolsch, prefering wine instead. Interestingly enough, I love the smell of beer. This next Call is for a space just under a boozer (UK slang for a bar), just in case you want a tasty bite along with a pint. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Art in the Underbelly

Art in the Under Belly is creative exhibition and performance space in Norwich, UK. Housed beneath The Rumsey Wells, its aim is to offer artists the opportunity to exhibit in an intriguing and unusual environment.

Far from being another gallery, the space is a converted cellar packed into intimate surroundings. There are no white walls or large floor spaces, instead the walls and the space retain much of their original character adding to the individuality of the surroundings. The space is open Monday to Friday, 1-3pm and 12-5pm on Saturdays.

After the success of 2009’s Submit & Exhibit, which saw submissions from as far afield as Pakistan and the USA, Art in the Underbelly is having its second open submission show, set to open in January 2012. Submissions are sought from artists and creative practitioners and anyone who makes work that they think would fit the space.

ELIGIBILITY: People of all levels of artistic availability are invited to submit. They are most interested in work we like the look of rather than years of experience. Hurray!

MEDIA: They are mainly seeking 2D work but there is some room for small 3D work and work that hangs from ceiling spaces.

DEADLINE: November 30th 2011

NOTIFICATION: None indicated.

ENTRY FEE: ￡5 (approx. $7.40 USD) for up to 3 images

SALES: Work can be for sale, the space takes a 20% commission.

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…

Last year I told you about a new food rule for our now 12 year old son: When eating at an ethnic restaurant, he must eat ethnic food.

I am fascinated by molecular gastronomy. Yes, you DO know what it is. We’ve all watched the food shows where inevitably someone breaks out the liquid nitrogen.

CALL for ENTRIES: Jerry’s Artarama Catalog Cover

Posted on September 6, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

NOVEL of NOSH

I love reading about food almost as much as cooking it and eating it. Amongst my favorites are polar opposites: Cooking Light and Food & Wine. No surprise, I’ve had a bit of a struggle with my weight over the years. In recent years, I’ve gotten better control of my food issues by figuring out one amazing fact… My menu is far more varied and exciting when I am trying to figure out how to do it in a healthy manner. It was a fascinating personal discovery. So, while I adore the gourmand Food & Wine, I am personally more likely to actually prepare foods found in Cooking Light.
