THE ART of FOOD
on the go

My little piece of the country has limited restaurant options. The Great Smoky Mountains are a phenomenal trade-off for many of the area’s flaws, but the food is a huge obstacle, so I cook. Indian and Thai food have made their way, but Greek food, alas, is still missing. I have my finders crossed that the food truck phenomenon will bring the flavors of the world to my little piece of the country. This next Call wants to see the wonders you can conjure–mobile style. Investigate…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Mobile-O-graphy. The entry fee at Darkroom is always low ($20), and they will provide free matting & framing if you work in their standard sizes. 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:
Mobile-O-graphy

Images made with mobile phones are becoming part of the photographic mainstream. Made with a phone camera, processed on the phone and even printed from the phone, these images are showing up in exhibitions both as a genre and alongside classic silver gelatin prints. Show them your latest mobile creations.

What distinguishes mobile device photography from that made with other devices? Less and Less. Possibly the fact that you can do it all on one device is unique. Sometimes the images created with mobile devices are more candid. Having a camera with us all the time lets us capture moments that can otherwise escape. Very quickly mobile phones are becoming just another type of camera taking their place alongside pin hole cameras, toy cameras, point and shoot cameras, SLR cameras etc. Here, in the gallery, we say it over and over – it’s not the camera – it’s the photographer’s vision and skill that makes a great photograph. Last year’s mobile phone photography exhibit said it. They want this year’s exhibit to prove it.

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

FOOD FOR THE EYES

I would love to know what percentage of cell phone pictures are of food. I am willing to bet it is over twenty-five percent…maybe even thirty percent. Thanks to facebook, I am regularly made aware of the gastronomic adventures of hundreds of my friends. Unfortunately, due to the number of my friends that are artists that also read this blog… I must honestly admit that I am among the worst of the offenders. I submit evidence of my guilt by posting this picture to the left of delicious Buckberry Bread Pudding that I took yesterday at The Lodge at Buckberry Creek. And, while I am not suggesting you submit pictures of food, this Call will require use of your cell phone. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Darkroom Gallery called Phone-O-Graphic Arts. Enter your work for as little as $20. Don’t forget Dark Room Gallery offers free framing & matting on accepted entries!

CALL FOR ENTRIES:
Phone-O-Graphic

Likely you’ve got your phone with you at all times, while you’ve forgotten your dSLR or film camera at home. You wouldn’t dare leave your phone at home, would you? It’s liberating, knowing your cell or smartphone can take a picture, anytime, anywhere.

As Photographers, you’ve likely engaged in the heated discussion over the capability, viability, credibility of the camera phone. Purists scoff at the intrusion of a mediocre, fraud of a device, that is marring their photographic religion. And then there are the rest of you, embracing the technology and embracing the all-in-one, multi-media lifestyle of the cellphone-toting imagist, so many of you have become.

JUROR: Dan Burkholder has a long history of looking over the photographic horizon to see, explore and teach the next great thing in imaging. His newest book, iPhone Artistry (Pixiq Press, 2011), is the definitive how-to for creative iPhone photographers. His first book, Making Digital Negatives for Contact Printing (Bladed Iris Press, 1995) became a seminal manual for photographers wanting to blend the power of digital imaging with the charm of the handmade print.

Dan received his B.A. and Master’s degrees from Brooks Institute of Photography, in Santa Barbara, CA. Dan has taught digital imaging workshops for 16 years on three continents and several island countries.

Burkholder’s platinum / palladium and pigmented ink prints are included in private and public collections internationally.
