CALL for ENTRIES: Encore

Music dictates food and scheduling in my household. As musicians ourselves, we spend a lot of time grabbing food before a gig. Too much of the wrong type of food (read Mexican), makes for unpleasant belching through most of the first set, but insufficient food (read salad) makes for a grouchy guitarist and missed chords. I keep telling you folks…Food makes the world go ’round; you’ll believe me eventually. This next Call is all about the music, not the food. Love this opportunity...

Check out this Call for Entries for Encore: A Look at Music from the Kiernan Gallery (Lexington, Virginia). The entry is very reasonable, and the juror is well-documented. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: By Design

OINK

Package design truly affects my food purchases. From clusters of naturally adorable clementines in a little wooden crate to the little pink pig on my favorite Brown Mix, No Pudge Fudge. Note: These are the best brownies I have EVER eaten in my life. My family is addicted, and I appreciate that just calls for yogurt–we prefer to use Greek yogurt with a little extra vanilla. I’m not certain if my background in graphic design makes MORE or LESS susceptible. This next Call is all about Design. You’ve got the eye; now it is your turn to show it off!

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Photography by Design. The entry fee at Darkroom is always low ($20), and they will provide free matting & framing if you work in their standard sizes. The jury method for this one is a change from the norm with TWO jurors EACH choosing a winner. Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: If you enter, please make sure to let them know that you found the Call on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com. We’ve got a great history with them…including Best of Show!

CALL for ENTRIES:
Photography by Design

There are principles of good design that when used properly, will make a good image much better, and a great image dynamite. With an understanding of how to apply these principles in making your images, you’ve got a excellent chance at elevating even dull subject matter to visually enticing, and in some instances, simply persuasive.

Does your image use point, line, color, form or shape, space, texture, and/or pattern to effectively communicate your intent? Does the image portray a sense of unity, balance, proportion, rhythm/repetition/similarity, hierarchy/dominance/emphasis/figure to ground. Let’s also add a few of the gestalt principles into the mix: Closure (our tendency to see and assume something which is not technically there/to fill in the missing pieces), Continuance (our tendency to follow a visual or suggested path), and Proximity (the two-dimensional relationship of objects to each other within the frame). If you have images that clearly illustrate one or several of the above mentioned elements and/or principles of design, they would love to see them.

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

JUROR: Joe Baraban has been photographing since the age of 24, where he took a job as a Medical Photographer at the Methodist Hospital in Houston (there aren’t many of us who can brag about a field entry like that!) .

Savor the firsts. Nothing every tastes quite as good the second time around. I still remember my first taste of pomegranate. And the first chocolate cake that came from my Easy Bake Oven remains unrivaled. For some reason we always assume that things get better with time, but I find that, at least with food, nothing ever beats the first taste. This next Call requires the photo-equivalent of the Easy Bake. Interested?

SUBLIME

The transition from Summer to Fall foods in the South is an odd muddle of unlikely cohorts. If I hit the farmers market at the right time of year, I can get beautiful lettuce and huge heirloom tomatoes while I am picking out my pumpkin for carving. You’ve gotta love a long growing season; it seems like every veggie gets a second chance to produce. This next Call is all about transit of people and things with places to be and people to see. Investigate…

CALL for ENTRIES:
In Transit

Whether by road, sea, rail, air, or other means, vehicles are both essential and ubiquitous in our daily lives. Photographers have documented transportation history, as NASA launched rockets, Ford assembled cars, and the Wright brothers took flight. As modes of transportation, photographers observe the intersections of cultures on public transit and the isolation of solitary commuters on the highway. Modes of transit spawn communities, and photographers have documented biker gangs and houseboats.

Journeys are photographed out of windows of speeding vehicles; blurred, voyeuristic, and fleeting. The vehicles themselves are cultural icons and status symbols: sailboats, muscle cars, Harley-Davidsons, and fixed gear bicycles. For In Transit, The Kiernan Gallery seeks images from and of the vehicles that move us.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All photographic media are encouraged.

DEADLINE: October 26, 2012

NOTIFICATION: Artists will be notified of accepted work via email approximately eight days after the submission deadline.

ENTRY FEE: 5 for $25, each add’l $5

JUROR: Jock Montgomery has worked as a professional guide and expedition leader – and of course as a photographer – in some of the most beautiful spots in the world. Straight out of college, Jock moved to Nepal to train raft guides and lead trekking, river running and mountain biking trips in Nepal, Tibet, India and Bhutan. He has taken more than 70 groups on a variety of trips in the Himalayas, as well as co-lead numerous kayaking expeditions with first descents in Nepal, Bhutan and India.

After 12 amazing years in Katmandu, Jock is now based in Bangkok, Thailand, with his French wife and co-explorateur Annie Miniscloux where he is in demand as a commercial and editorial assignment photographer. He was the sole photographer for Menam Chao Phraya, River of Life and Legend, a 252-page coffee-table book about Thailand’s principal waterway. He speaks Nepali fluently and is conversant in Thai.

AWARDS: For this exhibition, juror Jock Montgomery will select up to 30 images for display in the main gallery, and up to an additional 40 to be included in the online gallery. All images will be reproduced in an exhibition catalogue available for purchase. A Juror’s Choice and Director’s Choice will also be announced.

SALES: Artists exhibiting at the gallery may offer their work for sale. The Kiernan Gallery retains 30% of the sale price as commission.

CREAM CHEESE ONLY,
hold the cake

I am not a fan of red velvet cake. Someone will be at my door any moment to evict me from the South, but I am just don’t get it. Most of the red velvets I have tasted are lightly cocoa-flavored cakes with the plastic-y overtone of excessive amounts of artificial red coloring.

PEANUTTY
goodness…

I am dumfounded by the number of times I use “I” while writing this blog. But popular opinion confirms that a certain about of narcissim is inherent in the act of blogging…period. I suppose I could start writing about the food quirks of the famous. It’s election season in the US, anyone want to talk about Jimmy Carter and peanuts? I didn’t think so. This next Call encourages a healthy dose of narcissism. Be your own muse…

CALL for ENTRIES:
id – The Object of Self

The self-portrait: Is it your compulsion? Your obsession? An impulse?

Was it out of necessity (the mandatory Photo 101 exercise, a portrait for the office newsletter, or because you needed to self-promote)? Is it the autobiographical record you decided was best told in image?

Sometimes we have to step in front of the lens – we can’t seem to communicate what we want to others, or maybe we’re just the most convenient choice for a model (the least expensive, for sure). Even if we got there by default, there is no one better able to translate our vision to the camera than ourselves. Perhaps you were experimenting with persona or striving for a personal perfection? Were you desperately seeking Self?

For those willing to dig deep and bare all, the self-portrait is a reward for your bravery – because whether you love it or hide it in the depths of your archives for decades, you’ve learned from it. Whatever your intention, there is nothing closer to an authentic portrait, than to sit both behind and in front of the lens. And whether for totally narcissistic or completely humble intents – you have to admit, it’s you.

CALL for ENTRIES:
Still Life

From Dutch masters’ paintings to contemporary photography, the still life has played an important role in art history. This genre grants the artist complete control over their subjects, allowing unparalleled ability to select details and manipulate the scene.

Still lifes often employ symbolism, where the objects assume their own character and identity. An entire story can be told with the arrangement of a few items; toys, dolls, and household goods become surrogates, and natural life is given a persona. For Still Life: The Art of Arrangement, The Kiernan Gallery seeks evocative and symbolic still life images.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All photographic media are encouraged.

DEADLINE: August 20, 2012
