CALL for ENTRIES: 2019 Trestle Residencies

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…

ARTIST RESIDENCY: AiR Tilburg (The Netherlands)

pie or TAART

When I was a child, my grandmother would occasionally bake a special dessert and exclaim, “as American as apple pie” when she would deliver it to the table. I’m not sure why, just an odd familial colloquialism I suppose. But apple pie certainly isn’t an American original. The Dutch have recorded recipes for apple pie dating back to 1514. An appeltaart is a deep pie with a pastry top and bottom. It’s filled with a apple, sugar, cinnamon & lemon juice and sometimes raisins or currants. Now, I’m hungry. This next Call is for a residency in The Netherlands. It is as Dutch as apple pie. *snicker* Take a look…

the deepest CUT

If you want to learn to cook well, I recommend starting with knives. Every dish is made more difficult with a dull knife. I had a brief affair with being a chef that put me in cooking school for a year. The first thing I had to buy was a full set of very expensive knives. (My mother had mine monogrammed. No kidding. SO embarrassing.) Fear not, you can start with just a couple of not-so-expensive knives. Everyone starts somewhere. This next Call is looking to help artists just making their start. Need funding?

fiesta ANACARDO

I made a little party mix as finger food for my teenager yesterday. It is his favorite snack, and I’m a sucker for the “please” of it all. The reviews are in and while I got I got bonus points for substituting cayenne for garlic, apparently not including cashews is unforgivable. Who knew something so small would make such a difference? This next Call is counting on all things small. Investigate for yourself…

CALL for ENTRIES: 12 Solo Shows

Posted on April 4, 2017April 3, 2017 by R.L. Gibson

et tu, Brute?

Anchovy paste is a standard item in my pantry, but it’s because I have a Caesar salad addiction. Otherwise, I don’t know a single person that eats anchovies outside of my family. Then, I was sitting in a pizza joint in Hendersonville, NC when I heard someone say, “I’m here for the anchovy, black olive pie.” See, I am not alone –never alone. There are benefits to being alone at times though. This next Call is the perfect opportunity to go solo. Don’t miss this chance…

PB & banana

Events have left me at home alone for lunch most days lately. I’m not good at eating alone. I’ll adjust eventually, but for now it is bananas & peanut butter or pasta with butter & parm. I don’t do food solo easily, but art is a much easier solo option. This next Call is a great outlet for solo work. Plus, it comes with a little bit of budget.

an imperfect PLACE for food

My kitchen table drama is ongoing. It is a 45″ round pedestal-style table with a black, faux-milkpaint finish. Black shows every speck, and that’s worse when your driveway is gravel (or, in my case, not a great housekeeper). Every time I clean the table, the stain of of the finish comes off a little more and the chairs are a misery. It gets used as a makeshift desk, studio worktable & only an occasional serving surface, so I can’t bring myself to get rid of it. My mother’s solution was to quilt a new set of wedge-shaped placements. All better, right? Gotta love her optimism. This next Call won’t make everything better either, but it is a lovely improvement. Plus, it is a ongoing deadline…

OPEN CALL: Private Collection

MUSHROOMS hold the pepperoni

Pepperoni rolls are all the rage in West Virginia, often attributed to a historically large Italian immigrant population. However, my food fascination during my 4 days in West Virginia this week has been morel mushrooms. Hunting large caches or collection a large number of morels is a statewide obsession as well as a part-time moneymaker for many. If you’ve never tried this meaty, intensely-flavored variety, search them out. You don’t have to make a special trip to West Virginia, your local grocer may carry them. This next Call is interested in your collection of art, not mushrooms. Investigate…

CALL for ENTRIES: Show #31

Posted on April 4, 2016 by R.L. Gibson

smashingly
DELICIOUS

Do you own a food mill? Think of it as a low-tech food processor. I love them because it makes leftovers multi-use. Run your chunky marinara through the mill for pizza sauce, while the food processor tends to make a watery mess. Baked apples, once milled make a great granita. Veggies from making stock end up as a great, light sauce for a fast noodle lunch. Your time is valuable. Don’t waste it by throwing away the left overs. Eat them. This next Call is a multi-purpose tool. Apply for one show and get considered for multiples. Take a look…

CHOCOLATE
choo choo

The sight of a train trestle always conjures my cravings for hot chocolate. My entire life has been spent in residence within about a half-mile of railroad road tracks. I loved sitting on my front porch in the Fall with a cup of hot chocolate and listen to the trains pass. That all ended when I moved to Gatlinburg. Now my cravings for hot chocolate come about through all the standard means–a chill in the air, holiday decorations, a simple sweet tooth. But, today I found merely the name of the gallery in this next Call sent me in search of cocoa in my cabinet. This is a wonderful opportunity, don’t miss it…
