I am no longer fascinated by deconstructed food. I’ll admit that for a while there, it seemed like an art to be served a deconstructed Caesar salad, but I’m over it. If I wanted deconstructed food, couldn’t I just partially create dishes at home and save myself both the extra preparation of making the completed meal and save the trip to the restaurant? I am just uncertain that abstraction has a place in my diet. So, let’s keep abstraction on the wall like in this next Call, okay? Take a look…
Check out this Call for Entries for In the Abstract from the Kiernan Gallery (Lexington, VA). The entry fee is ALWAYS reasonable at this gallery, and you know how I LOVE this gallery…

In the Abstract
Abstract photography explores color, movement, form, and other intangibles that are not dependent on a recognizable subject. The medium of photography has a unique ability to reproduce with precision and clarity, the world as we see it. Abstract photography deconstructs our world, resulting in new and surprising interpretations. Graphic elements without context, long exposures, blurred subjects, and extreme close-ups are a few of the ways that photographers manipulate their subjects in an abstract manner. These works are limited only by imagination.
ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists
MEDIA: Non-representational Photography
DEADLINE:
March 21, 2014
NOTIFICATION:
Approx. 8 days later
ENTRY FEE:
5 for $25, each add’l $5
