CALL for ENTRIES: Alternative Techniques

Posted on February 7, 2018February 7, 2018 by R.L. Gibson

a little LEMON or LIME

During the winter, I’m grateful for the extra heat of the oven after lunch or dinner. I usually leave the oven door open until it reaches room temp. However, come Summer, or even Spring for that matter, I will start looking for alternative ways to cook without having to combat the heat of the oven for the rest of the day. Ceviche may be the simplest of them all. Ceviche is a method of cooking fish or seafood in citrus juice alone –without heat. It doesn’t produce the flaky fish you get from the oven, but if you’re a fan of sushi, you’ll love ceviche. This next Call is all about Aternative Techniques. I can’t wait to see this exhibit…

Check out this Call from L.A. Photo Curator (online) for the Alternative Techniques exhibit. $20 entry, no shipping, plus art publication for ALL entrants. Entry fee is $20. Take a look…

SOUR PUSS

Happiness is seeing sheer joy on your teenager’s face when you bring home a ripe avocado. During the chicken finger and fries years, I got so used to the “yuck” face every time something green came across his plate that I was convinced he would end up with rickets or die of malnutrition. Now I just see a happy face at the dinner table except on the rare occasion that pickled beets get a what-the-hell face. Faces are my favorite, and this next Call is a great opportunity to concentrate on them. Just do it; you know you want to…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Faces

An enduring fascination with the photographic portrait.

Each portrait reveals something of the sitter, the photographer and also of us as viewers. No one image can muster a whole and complete being, no matter how much we believe this could be so. This is the part of the photograph we create in our imagination, we fill in each crack and hole with a sort of personalized reasoning. And all these unknowns in the midst of true transparency.

Eye contact is made or retracted, body language boastful, reticent or indecipherable. Facial expressions can be hard at work or numbly slack. While subjects have a power over these photographic outcomes, it is the choice of the photographer to coax or mute said expressions for their artistic offering.

Submit work depicting people, selves, faces. People that baffle us with their complexities, personalities or simplistic nature. Make us question how this person existed at this particular place and time.

ELIGIBILITY: Entrants must be at least 18 years old. If younger, you must have a legal guardian make the submission for you.

WHEAT-OUT YOU

I have been on a personal voyage for the past 9 months, and there is no end in sight. My father died in December, betrayed by his body and love of food that didn’t love him back. My grandmother struggles with Alzheimer’s and the loss of both her memory and her appetite. I have been battling my health and grappling with the loss of my decades-long love affair with wheat. I can’t help but believe that it is all a voyage taking me to some unknown path that will be my future. The voyage has already spurred new art. Let the theme of this next Call take you on your own personal voyage. Don’t miss the opportunity…

There are a lot of reasons not to eat fried foods on a regular basis. You’ve heard most of them: blood pressure, heart disease, vitamin deficiency. Blah, blah, blah. You already know all of the logical reasons. So, let me proffer that fried food is the culinary equivalent of institutional gray. Do you really enjoy a plate of brown and beige food that all basically tastes beige? I hate to misappropriate the Skittles slogan, but taste the rainbow people. This next Call is the best reason to appreciate gray, but walk away from the beige, folks…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Grayscale

The world is a colorful place. Despite this, photographers often choose to excise color from the world they capture. Artists working in black and white eliminate the complexities of color to accentuate form, composition, and lighting. The world desaturated is in some ways made more vivid. For Grayscale, The Kiernan gallery seeks photographs of any subject matter that use and celebrate the vibrancy of monochrome.

POOF, NOT POP
went the corn

I usually believe in moderation in all things, but lately I’m finding myself on the extremes of all the food issues out there–from dairy to beef, wheat to sugar. It seems as though everyone has a very black and white view on what is and is not good for you. Did you every thing there would be a vegetable that you were NOT supposed to eat? Me either, but corn is apparently my new nemesis. Go figure. I try to turn a blind eye to those beautiful ears, but it would be easier if I could be selectively color blind. Trust me…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Color Blind. The entry fee at Darkroom is always low ($24), and they will provide free matting & framing if you work in their standard sizes. Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: If you enter, please make sure to let them know that you found the Call on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com. We’ve got a great history with them…including Best of Show!

CALL for ENTRIES:
Color-Blind

The inability
to distinguish one or
more chromatic colors,
distinction of space
by the edges of
darkness and light.

Color plays an important role in how we perceive the world around us. So when you take that information away what do you get in return? Without color, other elements of the photograph take on a more distinct role in telling the story. Notice how lighting, contrast, and composition are much more important in monochromatic images.

Black & white photography is a timeless art; always relevant, always contemporary despite being so historically ancient. The juror Matthew Gamber states, “There is something about how when you photograph something in black and white, it gets locked in that time frame where it just becomes obsolete as an everyday seeing experience.”

Whether you are a darkroom purist or a Photoshop crafter, show them your love for hue-less images. They want your best black and white or alternative process photographs. Pay tribute to the origins of photography.

ELIGIBILITY: Entrants must be at least 18 years old. If younger, you must have a legal guardian make the submission for you.

BRAISING

As I may have mentioned a few hundred times, we try to be very careful about what we eat. Braising has become my alternative technique for cooking almost anything. A TINY smidgen of olive oil in a non-stick pan allows me to caramelize veggies and meats, then I de-glaze the pan with a little water that helps steam the food to the proper temperature. No frying needed. This next show wants to see you alternative methods. Might have to enter this one myself…

Alternative process photography today is a hybrid of historical techniques and contemporary ideas. Old is new again and the resurgence of non-silver processes has led to The Kiernan Gallery’s second alternative process exhibition.

Savor the firsts. Nothing every tastes quite as good the second time around. I still remember my first taste of pomegranate.
