CALL for ENTRIES: Lines into Shapes

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

Learn more from Art Center and Gallery of Estes Park!DOUGH not

The hot-fresh-now doughnut purveyor is very popular during tourist season in the Smokies.  Summertime often means a car line for the drive thru stretches for a 1/4 mile down the Parkway.  I don’t understand.  I’ll stand in line, or sit in line, for a lot of foods, but why doughnuts?  Donuts with a K are everywhere aren’t they?  What makes them so special while you’re on vacation?  It baffles me.  This next Call does NOT baffle me, and the name is all about the lines.  Check out the gallery and/or online show choice.  Interesting option…

CALL for ENTRIES: Abstraction

parm & garlic

I’ll take the Abstracted Caesar–hold the deconstruction.  I love it when culinary lingo takes a weird side trek.  Apparently the minute difference is that deconstructed food is technically a dish with ALL of its components separated.  Meanwhile, abstracted food features only the main components separated out.  Hilarious.  In the meantime, this next Call wants your Abstract work, not deconstructive work.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Santa Cruz Art League (CA) for Degrees of Abstraction.  We love this arts organization, and the juror has a well-documented personal style that runs contrary to the exhibition’s theme.  Interesting…

Abstraction

 

Moving beyond verisimilitude abstraction frees the artist from the object.  This opens the door for a vast variety of visual interpretations which indeed makes abstract art the most challenging.  The artist’s facility with the materials & focus on surface makes abstraction particularly interesting today.  But w/o personal content, symbolism or “event”,  it risks becoming conceptually mundane & void of meaning.

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to US artists

MEDIA:  Printmaking, drawing, painting, bookmaking, collage, photography & 3D

DEADLINE:  August 31, 2014

ENTRY FEE:   $45 Non-member up to 3 / $35 SCAL Members ($20 fee/box for shipped work)

JUROR:  Tobin Keller is an artist and educator who works and teaches in Northern California.  His artwork is very much influenced by the community & natural beauty which surrounds him. Tobin received his Bachelor of Media Arts from Emily Carr University in Vancouver, British Columbia and holds a MFA in Illustration from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. He currently instructs courses at Mendocino College in Ukiah & works as a freelance illustrator & muralist.

AWARDS:  The Juror will grant $1,000 in Awards

SALES:  45% commission to Santa Cruz Art League or 30% commission (for SCAL Members).

CALL for ENTRIES: A Show of Heads

weirdness

As I become more food wise, I also become more food wary.  Even proven combinations like chocolate & peanut butter or mozzarella & balsamic become tiresome.  And as I get bored, I start branching out and trying foods together just out of curiosity.  Watermelon with olive oil & basil is delightful, by the way.  That combination is as good as the combination award for this next call.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from SlowArt Productions for A Show of Heads at the Limner Gallery (NY).  The awards for this show include BOTH a gallery show & art publication.  Great combo…
