O-LIVE YOU!

I am simply over the moon when I my 12-year-old son can be convinced to eat something new…anything new, really. I’m not asking him to eat live sea urchins, sheep brains or anything bizarre.

I am still can’t believe his chicken-fingers-and-fries palate enjoyed them. This next Call is from a theatre company that has ventured into new territory–visual arts. I simply love this concept…

CALL for ENTRIES: Yosemite Renaissance

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

CHARTREUSE
ANYONE?

Does your family eat green or eco-friendly? My family has made progress toward going the eco-friendly green route in baby steps over the past few years both in our culinary exploits and energy consumption. However, I’ll admit that it rarely occurs to me to use my art to contribute to environmental awareness. I will do a lot of things to save the environment, just don’t ask me to drink the juice, ugh. This next call gives you the opportunity to use art to help protect Yosemite…

Check out the Call for Entries for the 27th Annual Yosemite Renaissance Exhibit. You can enter one piece for as little as $15 and help protect Yosemite National Park in new generations with your unique interpretation. It’s good to be green…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Yosemite Renaissance XXVII

Yosemite Renaissance is an annual competition and exhibition which is intended to encourage diverse artistic interpretations of Yosemite.

Its goals are to bring together the works of serious contemporary artists that do not simply duplicate traditional representations; to establish a continuum with past generations of Yosemite artists; and to help re-establish visual art as a major interpretive medium of the landscape and a stimulus to the protection of the environment.

Historically, the arts have played a very important role in the establishment of our State and National Parks. It is the hope of Yosemite Renaissance that they can be just as important in future efforts to preserve and protect that heritage.

ELIGIBILITY: The Yosemite Renaissance XXVII competition is open to all living artists. Subject matter is limited to recent works on the landscape, environment, wildlife and people of Yosemite or the environment of the Sierra. Both representational and non-representational submissions are accepted.

MEDIA: Original artwork may be in any medium. Size is limited to works that can be shipped in containers not exceeding maximum U.P.S. dimensions of 130 inches, length and girth combined. Triptychs or other multi-image pieces (exhibited under one title) should not exceed 48 x 48.”

LIMITS: Each artist is limited to eight entries. No more than two entries from any artist will be included in the exhibit.

DEADLINE: November 10, 2011

NOTIFICATION: Late December

ENTRY FEE: There is a non-refundable entry/handling fee of $15.00 for each entry. Payment must accompany your entry submissions. Your check or money order should be made payable (only in U.S. dollars) to Yosemite Renaissance, Inc. One check may cover several entries from one artist (up to the eight entries allowed per artist).

JURORS: The Board of Directors of Yosemite Renaissance (consisting of artists, curators and administrators) will make the initial selection of works for the exhibition. Cash award-winners will be selected by independent judges to be announced.

AWARDS: At least $4,000 in cash awards will be distributed at the discretion of the judges. Purchase awards may be given as well. A special award of $300 will be given to the best piece inspired by Hetch Hetchy (pictured below) that the jurors select to be included in the exhibit.

CALL for ENTRIES: Art & Psyche

Posted on August 10, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

LAY ME DOWN…
on chocolate

It has been suggested that I seek professional help for my food obsession. However, like any well-seasoned food addict, I prefer to think of myself as food-educated or food-curious, not just food-obsessed. I’m certain a psychoanalyst could figuratively feast on my many stufffed, food-related issues. Where’s the couch? (Speaking of couches, check out the cake couch entitled “You Can’t Have Your Cake and Eat It Too”, the chocolate couch was created by Argentinian artist Leandro Erlich for an art-exhibit appropriately named “Let Them Eat Art”.) Maybe this next call would give me some insight. Never miss an opportunity to self-analyze, ha…

Check out this Call for Entries from JF Gallery (West Palm Beach, FL) for Art & Psyche. The entry fee is a little high for the full three entries, but the commission is only 35%. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:

CALL for ENTRIES: Toys Toys Toys

Posted on August 9, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

ORANGE you…
TEMPTED?

We’ve all been told not to play with our food. And, none of us really understood why parents made this blanket statement. As an adult, I still don’t understand why. If my kid wants to play with his food then have to eat it while it is cold… well, those are his lumps in his potatoes, not mine. Apparently, I’m not alone in valuing the play-value of food. Take a look at a great book called Food Play by Joost Elffers and Saxton Freymann (not paid sponsors, I assure you). This next Call certainly encourages you to play, but not necessarily with your food. Investigate for yourself…

Check out this Call for Entries from Annmarie Sculpture Garden and Arts Center (Solomons, MD) for Toys: Re-Invent, Re-Imagine, Re-Discover. This show offers a GREAT OPPORTUNITY for holiday art sales. Don’t miss this…

CALL for ENTRIES:
TOYS, Re-Invent, Re-Imagine, Re-Discover

This exhibit seeks works of art that use toys and children’s playthings as the inspiration, subject matter, and/or medium with the goal of creating playful, amusing, nostalgic, or poignant commentaries on the role of toys in our lives. Many of us hold fond memories of special toys that yielded hours of entertainment and can vividly remember when a treasured toy was lost, broken, stolen, or otherwise retired.

For these reasons and more, toys can be a powerful art medium, conjuring up both treasured and difficult memories of childhood, past friendships, and other recollections. From the utterly outrageous to the sappy and sentimental, this exhibit will include all media, small to large scale. The exhibit will be installed in the Main Gallery of the Arts Building, but a small number of outdoor works will be considered for the Sculpture Garden. The jury seeks works that are engaging, and fun, and above all, playful!

ELIGIBILITY: The exhibition is open to artists age 18 and older working in the U.S.

MEDIA: All media types are welcome; small to large scale; indoors and outdoors.

DEADLINE: August 26, 2011

NOTIFICATION: Via email on or before September 2, 2011

ENTRY FEE: Artists must submit a $25 non-refundable entry fee for up to four entries. Entry fee must be paid by check, money order, or credit card. Each entry must be submitted with three images of the artwork, including one overall view of the artwork, one detail shot, and one installation shot. There is a returned check fee of $25.

JUROR: Andrew Wodzianski, Professor of Art, Division of Communication, Art & Humanities, College of Southern Maryland

AWARDS: Annmarie will present cash awards to outstanding work. Jurors will review installed works (not application images) for award selection. If possible, selection will occur prior to the exhibit opening and awards will be presented at the opening reception. Award amounts are contingent upon sponsorship; typically there are at least three awards ranging from $250-$750 each. All award winning artists will receive an invitation for a solo or group show.

SALES: Works selected for exhibition cannot be removed before the end of the exhibition. Should a sale resulting from the exhibition occur, Annmarie will retain a 40% commission of the listed sale price.

BEANS to NUTS

You know what I haven’t eaten in years? Boston Baked Beans candy. Remember those red, candy coated peanuts you used to love?

Well, you don’t have to go to the Boston area to get either of these culinary treats; however, it might be a goofy distraction while you are in town for your show opening once you apply to this next Call.

SAY
CHEESE!

I am frequently asked about my favorite foods, and of course, there are too many to name. However, it would be fair to narrow it down Mediterranean food, Greek and Italian to be exact.

PIGGIE

DIGIT-LESS
CHICKENS

I am not a fan of chicken nuggets or fingers. My soon to be 12 year old has killed them for me forever. I have suffered through a period when he would only eat orange foods… sweet potatoes and carrots. I have suffered through ranch dressing on everything.

GOUD-A-HEAD

I talk a good food game. My culinary tastes seem brave to some, but they aren’t really. I know what I like, but I’m a chicken about trying some stuff just like you. I cannot bring myself to even try something called head cheese. I get that it is mainly just meat in aspic, but it sounds gross and doesn’t win huge points with me for aesthetics either. One of you should take a picture of yourself eating head cheese and send it to me. The first one that does will get a little ad in the side bar for a couple of months. Make it a good picture though… ’cause I WILL publish it before you get your ad. I wonder if head cheese is an eligible topic for this next Call for Entries. Take a look…
