CALL for ENTRIES: Szpilman Award

ROCK or ROLL
foods

Some foods are fleeting. I love it when foods are only available for a couple of weeks. It is a snooze-and-you-lose kind of situation. Romanesco broccoli is a great example. It is a fabulously alien looking vegetable, and the season isn’t all that short, but it is rarely found for more than a couple of weeks at grocers. This next Call is all about the value in the fleeting. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for the Szpilman Award from Szpilman (a group of artists, based in Berlin and Frankfurt, Germany) given to ephemeral works. There is no entry fee, but the postmark deadline is just around the corner. Don’t miss this opportunity!

NO ENTRY FEE: Rejected Art AWARD

Posted on August 22, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

REJECTION SUCKS

I’ve been rejected personally, professionally and artistically… and they all suck. On rare occaison, I take the artistic rejection personally. I’ve been known to hold a grudge. I’ll omit the name, but let’s just say there IS a gallery out there that rejected four of my pieces for four different shows in ONE year. You won’t find their Calls on this site EVER.

Bitter? Maybe a little.
