ANOTHER REMINDER: Prime

Posted on May 23, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

EAT EAT EAT
already

I have to remind my son to eat. The food will be in front of him on the table, and he will take a bite and say, “Wow, this is great!” Then he promptly gets distracted by something, anything really, and I find myself saying at least three times during dinner, “Oscar, don’t forget to eat.” He will snap out of it and reply, “Oh, I forgot.” Just to make SURE that YOU don’t forget, I am reminding you of this upcoming deadline again. Please don’t miss this chance…

Check out this Call for Entries from Saranac Art Projects (Spokane, WA) for Prime, a juried exhibit. The entry fee can be as little as $15 and there is no commission! This show is one I would really like to see all of you get behind. Honestly, I’m just going to keep reminding you to enter… So, please, make me proud.

CHEESE
required

I would hurt somebody for macaroni and cheese right now. No, I’m not pregnant, but my craving for foods has been a little nutty lately. Oddly enough, I usually crave carbohydrate laden, comfort food like macaroni & cheese in Winter, not Spring. I suppose some cravings are just primal (or so I am going to claim when I indulge later). This next Call speaks to the primal as well. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Sense of Place 2013

Posted on April 3, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

CALIFORNIA
dreaming?

I was out of town this week, and traveling makes eating out necessary. But, I was trying to behave so I’ll fit back into my Spring clothes again soon. At one restaurant, I ordered a California Chicken Salad which included mixed greens, mandarin oranges, dried cranberries, blue cheese, candied pecans, croutons, grilled chicken and balsamic vinaigrette. Mine was sans the blue cheese & pecans, but I am still wondering what made it Californian. The oranges? I still don’t know. Check out this next Call with a name that references place, but it isn’t really the theme. Interesting…

CHOCOLATE
or death

I have an almost primal daily craving for chocolate. I’ve recently adjusted my eating habits to accommodate fitting into my Spring clothing, but my need for chocolate has not changed. I believe that there are moments when an Andes Mint is the only thing that has stood between me and the certain death of one of my family members. Okay, maybe not death, but ugliness nonetheless. This next Call is all about the prime, primal and primary. Please do not miss this one…

CALL for ENTRIES: Social Media

NO JELLY
with my satay, please

Food has interrelation–be it natural or forced. In the US, peanut butter is only naturally related to grape jelly, but it is fantastic with raspberry jam. PB&J has a distinct meaning apart from its separate components. My immediate connection with peanut butter is peanut sauce, but my connection to PB&J is childhood comfort. Odd, eh? This next show is about the interrelation of work, one deriving meaning from the other. I like this theme…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Northbrook Public Library (Northbrook, IL) for their annual juried show, called Social Media Artshow this year. The entry fee is reasonable. There is NO COMMISSION taken by the show promoters, and this year’s theme is an interesting twist from the norm! Don’t miss this one…

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

CALL for ENTRIES:
Social Media Artshow 2013

Art is the original social media: it reaches out and draws together, trying to make connections. It incites discussion and draws meaning through relationships. We are looking for works that are either created in a series or multiple elements (like diptychs) that generate meaning through their interrelation, or works that react to existing famous artworks. The mathematics are simple: one is quotidian and two is exponential.

ELIGIBILITY: The show is open to artists 18 years and older.

MEDIA: 2 and 3 dimensional art executed within 3 years of entry date and not previously been displayed in the library.

DEADLINE: May 31, 2013

NOTIFICATION: July 31, 2013

ENTRY FEE: Entry fee is $35. Checks payable to the Northbrook Public Library. A maximum of 3 entries per artist fee will be judged.

JURY PROCESS: Artists should be cognizant that the exhibition is open to the general public & artwork must be viewable for all ages. Pieces will be judged on artistic quality & execution as well as thematic relevance. Artists should consider the theme, Social Media.

SALES & COMMISSION: The NPL does NOT charge a commission for show participation. All sales inquires will be referred to the artists. Contact information, provided by the artist, will be listed in the online and printed show catalog to facilitate sales. The only sale to be handled by the NPL will be the purchase of the first-place award winner.

AWARDS: One (1) $2000 purchase prize, one (1) second place cash award of $1000, one (1) third place cash award of $500, and two (2) Viewer’s Choice cash awards of $200.
