FOR YOU
Why is mint chocolate chip ice cream so often green? We know that the essential oils used to produce the mint flavor certainly doesn’t lend the color. Is it the manufacturer’s way of grabbing the attention of someone already searching for the flavor? Does green food say “mint” to you? Green foods say “grassy” or “produce” to me. There is no denying that food imagery helps determine choice, and this next Call drives home that point precisely. Can’t wait to see your entries…
Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Feast. The entry fee at Darkroom is always low ($24), 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! I have such a soft spot for this gallery, and considering the theme, I really want to see one of MY BELOVED FOODIE ARTISTS take Best of Show…and all the other spots as well. Make me proud…
CALL for ENTRIES:
Feast
Feast your eyes & dig in. The taste of food photography.
From farm to table; the harvesting, preparing and plating of culinary masterpieces. Food, we eat it to survive. Yet if grown and prepared with intention, these are the dishes we savor.
Cooking can be a lot like taking a great photograph. Both lend themselves to fearless experimentation, adaptation and, ultimately, the creation of something awe-inspiring.
Photography capturing this process is something that all walks of life can connect to and be stirred by. The act of breaking bread with one another is deeply ingrained in our many traditions and ancestry.
ELIGIBILITY: Entrants must be at least 18 years old. If younger, you must have a legal guardian make the submission for you.
MEDIA: Photography
DEADLINE: October 16, 2013
NOTIFICATION: October 23, 2013
ENTRY FEE: Up to 4 images for $24 US for on-line and $29 for email submission
JUROR: For the past 20 years Matt Armendariz has been immersed in food in one way or another. As a former graphic designer and art director in the food industry, he has surrounded himself with great food before he began branching out into photography and blogging as a way to expand and share his passion for all things food and drink. High and low, near and far, food and flavor have always been his driving force and the stories that shape how and what we eat have always captivated him.
Matt’s photo clients include La Brea Bakery, Target, Food Network, Cooking Channel, Coca Cola, In N Out, Pom Wonderful, Coastal Living Magazine, Time Magazine, Food + Wine, and various cookbooks.
AWARDS: All selected entries are exhibited in the Darkroom Gallery and included in a full color exhibit catalog. Juror’s Choice receives a 30×48″ vinyl exhibit banner featuring their image. People’s Choice gains free entry into a future exhibit.
SALES: Darkroom offers free matting and framing of accepted entries for the duration of each of their exhibitions, subject to standard sizes.
