Posted on September 20, 2018September 20, 2018 by R.L. Gibson

JELLY much?

Why do we always want what we cannot have? Deprivation drives some people mad. I am not being deprived; I’m just stubborn. It is a control issue. The food at my residency is phenomenal cuisine offered in a beautiful setting. I have eaten every manner of velouté, terrine & and savory foam imaginable, but I am currently craving a PB&J and banana pudding, separately of course. Ridiculous. This next Call is for a residency that does not provide meals, so you are welcome to eat all the junk food you can stand, ha. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Trestle Gallery (Brooklyn, NY) for Trestle Artist Residency and Visiting Artist Residency. This is an opportunity to have work space in Brooklyn while developing a relationship with a great non-profit contemporary art space for only a $10 submission fee. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Tryst and the BP Oil Spill

ONION TEARS

The thing I love most about being an artist is the creation of the work, but a close second is belonging to a community of artists. Most artists are happy to have a local group of close knit creative types with which to share, and I am overwhelmingly fortunate to have all of you. Okay, I’m tearing up more than when I chop onions, folks.

My point is…while many of us already have an artist family, we must remember that families have to grow or the lineage will end. I have a friend in NYC who is trying to expand her fold. Tryst Collective is looking for locals for a show called “BP’s Black Plague,” but never say never…send ’em your stuff because you just never know what could happen.

TRYST COLLECTIVE: BP’s Black Plague

NYC-based arts group, the Tryst Collective, is looking for artists, photographers, sculptors, crafters, musicians, etc. who would like to be a part of a *one-night* group show – an art, music, and networking event.

This is the first installment of a series of themed Trsyt shows that will be held throughout the year. This particular show—BP’s Black Plague: a response in art and music— is centered around the reactions and responseswithin the creative community to the BP oil spill and/or our nation’s oil dependence.

Jessica Rowshandel writes, “We are still waiting for the date, but we are aiming for mid to late Sept. We are looking for local people who can get to the venue the night of the show since it’s a D-I-Y sort of thing.

“The venue is R Bar New York City, which is located at 218 Bowery Street, New York NY 10012. The event will be ticketed.

Artists and musicians are encouraged to sell their work and network -making money and new connections.

“We do not take any commission. We ask that the participants invite friends/followers because we need to pay for the space through ticket sales and more importantly, we are building a community.

“This is a very grassroots group and is held in nontraditional arts space, so participants should expect that. The venue allows us to hang work and we also have presentation and table easels. There will be a cash bar.”

If interested, please email them at:
