CALL for ENTRIES: Juried NYC Art Competition

Posted on December 26, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

HOLY BAGEL, BATMAN!

The holy grail for most of the emerging artists I know is a solo show in New York City. The myth of the NYC show as the tipping point for wealth, success and fame is as idealized as NYC diners, bagels and street hot dog vendors.

Don’t misunderstand, I LOVE diners, bagels and hot dogs. I recognize that none of them will change my life, but I will enjoy one and all if you offer me one.

Check out this next Call for Entries for the 2011 National Juried Competition from the First Street Gallery in New York City. The entry fee is a standard $35, but the grand prize …a solo show. Don’t miss this opportunity!

CALL for ENTRIES: 2011 Nat’l Contemporary

Posted on November 9, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

BUFFALO…in brief.

When you think of Colorado and food, does it conjure images of snow bunnies and hot chocolate? Then clearly you need to revisit Colorado. When I think of Colorado, I think of Buffalo Burgers. Buffalo burgers, once a fringe food, have now found their place in everyday fare. In South Central Colorado, the buffalo burgers are unmatched. I wonder if there’s any chance buffalo will be on the menu at this next exhibit’s opening night…

Check out this Call for Entries for The Arts Center’s 14th National Juried & Invited Contemporary Exhibition at the Center for the Arts in Western Colorado. The entry fee is low, and I like the idea of a mix of invited and juried artists…that usually means a built in crowd for opening night. Take a look…

14th National Juried & Invited Contemporary Exhibition

Keeping with the tradition of the Contemporary Exhibit, juror Michael Chavez will select six to eight artists to join the exhibit as invited artists who will give us an exciting survey of established and emerging artists in the contemporary art fields of drawing, painting, photography and mixed media two-dimensional work.

Posted on October 30, 2010 by R.L. Gibson

SAY CHEESE (cake)!

It warms my heart that I have been able to feature so many great opportunities from my home state lately. I love art opportunities more than cheesecake…shocking, I know. The $10,000 in cash awards (including $2,000 for Best of Show) in this next show would buy a whole lotta cheesecake though.

In 1965, the League started its annual Central South Art Exhibition – now in its 46th year – which, with the generous support of the Friends of the Tennessee Art League, continues to be one of the oldest and most prestigious art competitions in the South and in the nation.

In all of its dynamic, community-oriented programs, the Tennessee Art League is truly the heart of the visual arts in Tennessee.

Mr. Sulkowski has received numerous awards including the AAPL Grand National Award, the Grumbacher Gold Medallion Award and the Best in Show Award at the Art in the Mountains exhibition sponsored by Southwest Art magazine.

HOT TODDY!

My non-art related work place is The Lodge at Buckberry Creek, a resort in the Great Smoky Mountains patterned after the Great Camps of the Adirondacks in upstate New York.
