OPEN CALL: Lux Center

Posted on May 8, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

CHEAP,
not crazy

I am a culinary cheapskate, of sorts. I try to limit the cost of a home-cooked meal’s protein to $2 to $4–total, not per pound. It comes from years of having no choice; however, I have these budgetary restriction to partially thank for my culinary creativity. You try having chicken, turkey, eggs or pork 4 days in a row; it will make you creative too. Now I will still buy a lux bottle of vinegar for $15, but I have priorities, ha. This next call is for the LUX Center, but it isn’t necessarily the theme. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: The Surrealist Influence

Posted on April 3, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

ENCHILAD – AHHHs?

The spirit of culinary improvisation is alive and well at my house. Exact ingredients are unheard of, and trips to the grocery store are always necessary. Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and red wine vinegar instead of rice wine vinegar will do in a pinch. We’ll see how the enchiladas turn out tonight, ha. This next Call is for a show located in the heart of improvisation, and I love the theme too. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for The Surrealist Influence on Contemporary Photography being curated by Lanie McCormick for The Hideout Theatre in Austin, TX. I’ve worked with Lanie in Austin before at the Austin Figurative Gallery, and she brings a refreshing curatorial vision. Don’t miss this “no entry fee” opportunity…

*Editor’s Note: If you have read the personal portion of this post, CALL for ENTRIES: The Surrealist Influence, anywhere other than by email subscription or on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com, it has been published without permission and is considered theft.

CALL for ENTRIES:
The Surrealist Influence
on Contemporary Photography

“Surrealism started out as a philosophical movement in the 1920s. The Manifesto, written by André Breton laid out the goals of the surrealist group which was comprised of writers, philosophers and artists. Freud was a huge influence on the movement with his practice of interpreting the meaning of dreams. That idea played out visually amongst the group which left us with rich visual oddities from artists such as Dali, Magritte, Ernst, Miro and Man Ray.

“I feel the surrealist artists impacted my own methods of creating, and encouraged me to look within to find a deeper significance with my art. Now I am looking for other photographers who have followed a similar path and others who have felt a kindred connection to the surrealist artists or movement.” –Lanie McCormick, Curator

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All Photographic media is welcomed and artwork should reflect the influence of surrealism. Artwork that shows forethought as well as strong aesthetic and compositional elements will be given priority. Work should be created within the last two years.

DEADLINE: April 14, 2012

NOTIFICATION: April 21, 2012

ENTRY FEE: None. In lieu of an entry fee selected artists will be asked to bring a bottle of wine, or snack tray for the opening celebration. If you are shipping your work, you are welcome to send a $10 contribution.

CURATOR: Learn more about photographer/curator Lanie McCormick!

SALES: No commission. The Hideout does not take a percentage of sales from artwork that is sold, and neither does the curator. The goal of this show is to celebrate art and have a strong exhibition.

CALL for PROPOSALS: Solo in Vegas

Posted on March 29, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

BEADS of SILVER

Dragées remind me of Las Vegas. You know… the little candy beads, often silver, that you see decorating cakes and cupcakes. Dragées also remind me of a Martha Stewart show many moons ago when Miss Piggy was the guest star, and they made cookies decorated with “dra-geeeees,” as Miss Piggy pronounced it. But, I digress. This next call has nothing to do with Miss Piggy and everything to do with Vegas. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Art & Technology

Posted on February 28, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

A SOUPÇON of SOUP

My kitchen is fairly free of electronic gadgets. While I appreciate the technology, a lack of space and economic tightwad-ness long ago put me on the path of manual gadgets. You should have been there when I tried to explain to my kid how to use a non-electric, hand-held can opener. Hilarity while trying to open a can of soup. This next Call wants to know how technology affects your art. And, it is free…

OPEN CALL: The Soap Factory

Posted on January 27, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

TAMALE ME,
something good…

I almost moved to Kentucky because of a pickle/tamale factory. Have I told you this story? I know, I should search my posts before I write. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, for once it ISN’T about the pickles or tamales. Nope. I looked into the Paducah Artist Relocation program and fell in love with a pickle/tamale factory in need of rehab. I love factory spaces for art. This next Call is how I relieve myself of the anxiety of not taking the pickle/tamale factory. I submit every year. Eventually they will let me in. You wait and see…

Posted on January 21, 2012January 21, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

HUMs
the WORD

Music (and dessert) are the cherry on the proverbial sundae at any meal. I have had the privilege of enjoying everything from a jug band at a pig pickin’ to authentic mariachi while eating tamales on a recent trip to Cozumel. But my favorite dinner music is the humming of my lactose-intolerant 12 year old when he delights in his favorite cheesy indulgence…pizza. This next call wants to hear about the music that delights you. Get to humming…

I love my husband more than life itself, but if he was just a meant-and-potatoes guy…we would never have made it. Relationships have hinged on worse, no doubt.

CALL for ENTRIES: The Art of Rebellion

Posted on November 19, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

FOOD FIGHT

We all have a responsibility to know how our food ends up on our plates. I’ve seen the slaughter videos (horrifying BTW), and I still eat beef. I have witnessed a chicken lose his head (disturbing), and I still eat chicken. But I have to say, I’m not cooking live lobster or crab. My husband is allergic to shellfish, so it doesn’t come up all that often, but I’m not going to fight my food. Lobsters and crab have a documented history of fighting the cooking process. Not this girl. Thanks, but no. This next Call is looking for your brand of rebellion. Lobsters and crabs are not eligible to apply…

Check out this Call for Entries for The Art of Rebellion from Gowanus Print Lab in Brooklyn, NY! Except for the rare “no entry fee” opportunity, entry fees don’t get cheaper than $5 for 5 images. The only catch is that you have to be a student. Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: If you have read the personal portion of this post, CALL for ENTRIES: The Art of Rebellion, anywhere other than by email subscription or on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com, it has been published without permission and is considered theft.

CALL for ENTRIES: The Art of Rebellion

2011 has been a year of rebellion. This year has seen long-standing monarchs overthrown in Egypt and Libya and mass protests for calling change in the economic-political power structure in Europe and the United States, most notably in Occupy Wall Street.

Dissent at this level has not been seen since the late 1960’s, where protesters developed both nonviolent and more radical protest techniques that are still used in today’s struggles.

Young people in particular are standing up and using their voice, and in times of social turmoil and political upheaval art can be used as a powerful and emotional communicative tool.

ELIGIBILITY:
Open to currently enrolled students

MEDIA: The exhibition will include a variety of mediums used to convey political messages, such as street art, fashion, photography and poster design. All political view points are encouraged to submit.

DEADLINE:
November 28, 2011

ENTRY FEE:
$5 submission fee payable via Paypal for up to 5 images
