CALL for ENTRIES: City

Posted on May 24, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

CITY FRUIT
country pumpkin

I grew up right outside of Atlanta, but I’ve never really been a city girl. I love downtown anywhere as a temporary destination, but home is always somewhere rural for me. It comes with drawbacks like a lack of ethnically diverse restaurants and markets, but it also comes with the joy of connection to your food. I know who grew my tomatoes. I know who propagated the giant basil plant in my herb garden. I know who to call when I run out of ramps. The City is intoxicating, but I’ll just stay put except for vacation if that’s okay. This next Call wants to know what draws you to the City. Great Opportunity….

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for City. The entry fee at Darkroom is always low ($24), and they will provide free matting & framing if you work in their standard sizes. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
City

Uptown, downtown,
urban spaces, public places
and the life
that inhabits them!

Nothing in the city is stopping, nothing is slow. There’s never a moment of silence, a moment alone. Horns honking, people talking, vendors yelling, children laughing, doors opening & doors closing. The city has a beat, a rhythm, a constant ebb & flow. Strangers brushing shoulders, lovers holding hands, catch it all in an instant. Because in an instant it will be gone.

All except the buildings. The stoic silence of these structures juxtaposes all the life. Distinct architecture, setting the scene, a beauty so quiet in a sea of so much noise. Each brick tells a story. They are characters in this play of city life.

ELIGIBILITY: Entrants must be at least 18 years old. If younger, you must have a legal guardian make the submission for you.

Honeysuckle is blooming outside my kitchen window. The taste of honeysuckle nectar reminds me of childhood and summer. Have you ever eaten honeysuckle syrup over lemon poppy seed pancakes? Mmmm.

In Bloom

Flower among flowers,
soft bud swooning,
opening her lovely petals,
bursting forth with life.

Blooms gladden all they espy; youthful candor and fragrance abounding! They summon romantic gestures, evoke seasonal rebirth and highlight a raw yet delicate beauty. Show us your most sensual works exploring flower power. Rapturous still life images; the bloom on the vine, the bud in the vase. Floral portraiture ever-nuanced, ever-growing. Humans bloom like flora and fauna; the girl on the cusp of womanhood, a boy breaching the threshold to manhood. Romance us with your interpretations of this tenuous beauty, these arrangements of organic sensuality.

CALL for ENTRIES: I’ll Be Your Mirror

Posted on April 30, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

VALUE MENU

Do you remember when fast food was a super fast, super cheap option? If you were on the go or in a hurry, lunch or dinner at a fast food joint wouldn’t break the bank. Today, my little family of 3 stopped for lunch. I ordered from the value menu to keep my portion sizes in check. My two favorite men ordered sandwiches and fries. The total was about $16.50. Really? $16.50 for a fast food lunch? When did this happen? Clearly, I am out of touch with reality. This next Call puts 1650 in a much better light. Don’t miss this…

I’ll Be Your Mirror:
The Portrait

Great portraiture such as that produced by Dorothea Lange, Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, Matthew Brady, Peter Hujar and Diane Arbus comprise one of the main pillars of the Pantheon of photographic arts.

The challenge of capturing the personality behind the person requires both technical know-how and an artist’s eye, combining technique, intuition and empathy. When done right, the unseen power of persona comes into focus and, as if by magic — personality seems to jump from the page. This month 1650 Gallery tips our hat to the power of people pictures, and welcomes your work in the blockbuster genre of photographic portraiture.

ELIGIBILITY: All artists 18 years or older

MEDIA: Photography

DEADLINE: May 12, 2013

CALL for ENTRIES: Portfolio

TAKE ANOTHER
little piece of
my heart

I am craving tapas, and I am too lazy to do it myself. I love the idea of little tidbits of a large variety of foods from savory to sweet. I also love the sharing that is inherent in this sort of eating. It always feels like we are sharing a chef’s whole portfolio of tricks and treats with those we love the most. This next Call will allow you to show YOUR whole portfolio, and I am happy to share it with my readers…the ones I love most. Too sappy for Thursday; I know…

Check out this Call for Entries for The Portfolio Show from the Kiernan Gallery (Lexington, Virginia). The is about a third lower this year than last. So this is an excellent opportunity to show a full body of work for not much more than the average 3 image submission. If the shoe fits…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Portfolio Show

Every photograph tells a story. When part of a body of work, the photograph takes on a new meaning, becoming part of a bigger and more complete narrative. A portfolio allows the photographer to explore the complexities of their subject, providing context that gives it richness and meaning greater than the sum of its parts. The Kiernan Gallery is pleased to announce its second annual portfolio showcase, juried by renowned photography critic Vicki Goldberg.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All photographic media are encouraged.

DEADLINE: May 23, 2012

ENTRY FEE: $50 for 10 – 15 images

JUROR: Vicki Goldberg, one of the leading voices in the field of photography criticism, wrote about photography for the New York Times for thirteen years and has published several books and the texts for more than twenty-five photographic monographs. One review of her latest book, The White House: The President’s Home in Photographs and History, called it “a lovely way to invite people who are a little wobbly on their White House and presidential history to shore up some of their weaknesses, while learning a thing or two about how the medium of photography has shaped our identity and national perspective.”

Goldberg has received numerous awards for writing, including the International Center of Photography’s Infinity Award, the Royal Society’s Dudley Johnston Award, and the Long Chen Cup (China). Ms. Goldberg, who has taught courses at the Institute of Fine Arts in New York, the Centro de la Imagen in Mexico City, the Rhode Island School of Design and the Art Institute of Boston, lectures internationally and writes on photography for various magazines.

AWARDS: For this exhibition, four photographers will be selected to show their complete bodies of work.

SALES: Kiernan Gallery no longer takes commission on sold works. But, they DO still have incentive to sell your work. The Kiernan Gallery was founded by an emerging artist, and recognizes the importance of selling work; they believe that if artists are paying a submission fee, the gallery should not also take a portion of the sale. They do reserve the right to negotiate 20% in order to make a sale.

REMINDER:
PEARLS
of wisdom

I have a long-standing addiction to pasta. More accurately, I am addicted to that slightly drowsy, completely relaxed feeling I have when I finish a beautiful Italian meal. My friends have been trying to get me to read Wheat Belly, but I’ve resisted for fear that I would end up having to give up my favorite pasta, whole wheat couscous. I cannot bear the thought. So, this next Call comes from San Francisco which has nothing to do with couscous, but the last time I made a Rice-A-Roni segue, I got email for weeks. So, my stream of consciousness led me to couscous. I know, random. Regardless, don’t miss this next Call…

CHICKEN

I learned my love of eating from my family, but I learned my love of food from experience far outside my family dynamic. You can’t choose your family as a child, and my family loved fried chicken and collard greens. I love fried chicken, too. You can keep the collards, thanks.

Posted on March 11, 2013March 11, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

BEET it

I spent YEARS disguising food both visually and by name. Spinach quiche spent years as “egg pie.” I’ve hidden zucchini in spaghetti sauce, and carrots, onion and celery in virtually everything. I am pleased that I can now look at my kid and say, “Yes, those are beets.” But, the years of trickery served a purpose; he’ll give anything a try now that his palate has been trained to prove his eyes wrong. This next Call is all about tricking the eye. Great theme…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Trick of the Eye

Magic that is channeled
in a single shot,
a recalibration of reality,
be the clever and cunning
illusionist behind the lens.

Optical illusions conjured by a variance of processes; from physically meticulous studio setups, to spontaneously captured works of luck, and ones hugely composed in post. Manipulate our perceptions with flourish. Deal with foreshortening, vanishing points, sandwiching negatives or the unique mash up of subjects. Employ sleight of hand use of color and composition that begs us to ask the question,”How ever did they do that?”

PICKLES

Did I ever tell you I looked into moving into a pickle factory? No joke. It was a part of the Paducah Artist Relocation program. I fell in love with the beams.

Chicken skin is bizarre. I frequently buy chicken in bulk then take it home and clean it. Skinning chicken still freaks me out.

Luckily, this next Call is all about skin of the non-chicken variety. The deadline is just around the corner…
