Famous dishes and food fads are not a new phenomenon.  Consider Hangtown Fry, named after Placerville, CA (then known as Hangtown), where it is reported to have been invented in the 1850s.  A bacon & oyster omelet, yep.  Although it originated in Placerville, it was really made famous years later by San Francisco, an hour from Placerville, from hence the oysters where usually shipped.  Yes, I managed to bring it back around to locally-sourced ingredients.  This next Call is also famous and from San Francisco.  Peas in a pod…

food trough wiper

The holy grail of culinary education is the Cordon Blue, and more recently, the Culinary Institutes of America.  I attended Johnson & Wales for a year and continue to be grateful for all that I learned.  I put me on the path to being the food-lover that I am.  And honestly, without the foodie side of me, I’m not sure this blog would have made it.  It gave me a brand, a platform if you will, to set AAAD apart from all the art deadlines out there.  Many feel that museum exhibits are the holy grail of art shows, and this next Call could be your holy grail.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Griffin Museum of Photography (Winchester, MA) for the 19th Annual Juried Exhibition.  You have to be a member (at least $25 fee), but then the entry fee is only $15 and commission is only 20%.  Investigate for yourself…

CALL for ENTRIES: Still Life Photography

AROUND YOUR FINGER

I always remember the thing I needed from the grocery store about 10 minutes after I leave the grocery store.  I used to put Post-it® notes everywhere.  That didn’t work.  I tried pre-printing lists with check-off boxes.  That didn’t work.  Now I send myself a text message with the essentials and an alarm for the time I plan on going to the grocery store.  Sad, but true.  Consider this your official text message for The Arrangement.

The deadline for entry in The Arrangement at Vermont Photo Space Gallery is Wednesday, December 22nd at Midnight EST.  You can email your entries and pay via PayPal so there are no excuses folks.  I know you don’t like it when I repost, but this is a great opportunity, and I don’t want you to wish you had bought milk 10 minutes after you leave the grocery store.  So, here is the original posting…

CALL FOR ENTRIES: The Arrangement

The tradition of still-life as subject matter has roots deep into the history of art, pre-dating photography as a medium by centuries.

Image by Ken Signorello - Read the full Call for Entries!Fine artists in all mediums, photography included, benefited from the total control they had over the final piece; the art making began with their arrangements of the mostly inanimate objects they intended to represent. As Vermont Photo Space Gallery owner Ken Signorello aptly points out, “…it is art squared, where one first creates a work of art and then another to preserve it.”

The history of still life in Photography is as old as the medium itself. Henry Talbot himself produced the first photographic images using the inanimate objects of still life. In its earliest days, utilizing still life as subject matter allowed for the lengthy exposures necessary for its initial technologies.

Learn more about the Vermont Photo Space Gallery!In the early 1900s, studies in line and form of object contributed to popular abstractions. In the 1950s, still-life concentrated on the kitsch, and re-emerged in the 90s after a few decades in obscurity, in perfect partnership with the new trendy super-saturated film stock. Overall, the genre has been largely ignored, despite periodic bouts of influence – surprising, for a photographic practice with so much potential.

What is still life today?

Vermont Photo Space wants you to show them your arrangements, from advertising to record photography, the abstract to the obvious. Whether you are an amateur or professional, you may have experienced your still-life photographs as some of your favorite images – Juror Paula Tognarelli wants to see them.

Image by Juror Paula TognarelliJUROR: Paula Tognarelli is the Executive Director and Curator of the Griffin Museum of Photography. The Griffin Museum of Photography’s mission is to promote an appreciation of photographic art and a broader understanding of its visual, emotional and social impact.

Tognarelli holds a M.S. in Arts Administration from Boston University; is a graduate of the New England School of Photography (Applied Program) and is a current candidate for her Masters in Education at Lesley University as a visual arts teacher.

Paula describes her photography as her native language. “I’ve always been more visual than vocal. I could draw a picture much faster than I could articulate a story in words. Photography made dialogue that much easier for me.”

Tognarelli is also a digital imaging specialist. She has done extensive postgraduate study in color management, color theory, digital photography and digital imaging processing. She has lectured on digital imaging throughout the United States and in Japan, representing Agfa and Polaroid Graphic Imaging. She has also been a speaker at the Seybold Conferences. She is a former member of the Xerox Technical Advisory Board. Paula was named by Printing Impressions magazine as one of twelve women who made a major contribution to the Graphic Arts/ Imaging industry.

I frequently joke that I would eat anything that won’t run from me.  (Maybe I just need a pair of these Waffle Sneakers from BBC.)  But I must admit that how food is presented, it’s arrangement, if you will, makes a huge difference.  I love petite little bites that cause me guilt because I know that I am disturbing a masterpiece.  Speaking of masterpieces…

It will come as no surprise that this Call for Entries from Vermont Photo Space Gallery called The Arrangement conjures of the exquisite fusion of food and art…the art of presentation.  Yes, I am that obsessed with food.  But I know you will dig deeper for your own “Arrangement”…don’t forget Vermont Photo Space offers free framing & matting on accepted entries!

CALL FOR ENTRIES: Photography

Click to Subscribe to ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!I love portraiture.  Portraiture is yummy…often decadent–like a bowl of exotic chocolate truffles.

Some of my favorite portraitists’ work span the gamut of possibilities from the soulful portraits by Paul Murray of mountain folk still living a life most people don’t dream still exists to the utterly surreal portraiture of Christian Rex Van Minnen to the slightly disturbed clowns of Jerry Portelli.  My own work has often centered around “self as other.”  Self-portraiture–whether literal or not–is a soul-searching, profound experience.

Here is a great call for self-portraiture called “Self Searching” brought to you by The Vermont Photography Workplace and PhotoPlace Gallery.  You may remember a previous call for Photo Abstraction from PhotoPlace that we posted during Photography Week.
