OPEN CALL: Flow 2013

Posted on August 28, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

A Season for…
everything

There are monthly featured foods at my house. Last month is was asparagus ($1.99/lb). This month it appears to be broccoli (2 double crowns for $3). We’re heading toward Autumn, and I’ll be eating $1 butternut squash for at least 2 months. It is all about eating what’s in season. It is cheaper, healthier, and yummier. Think of it as a seasonal treat. This next Call is all about the upcoming season, and it’s a treat too! Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for 2013 Exhibitions from Flow Art Space (Minneapolis, MN). Great news…NO COMMISSION, no really. This is a rare opportunity in a fairly new gallery. Investigate for yourself…

CALL for ENTRIES: The Naked Truth

Posted on August 27, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

PLUM
nekkid

I am guilty of making the occasional sauce to cover up an over-cooked piece of meat. Yes, I know that any meat that NEEDS sauce shouldn’t be served, but it happens. However, the best things to eat are usually at their prime when featured naked. The pluot is a perfect example. It is a cross between a plum and an apricot. They are the blood orange of the plum world according to my hubby and best served nekkid. This next call also wants to see the naked truth of it all. Investigate…

CHIPPING away

My son has recently decided to try to break a Guinness World Record, but he can’t figure out which one (he’s 13). It takes all the self-control to not suggest that he make the world’s largest chocolate chip cookie. This next call will resort in only a 10 foot circle; I suspect that is far to small for the world’s largest cookie. Nonetheless, this is a great opportunity…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Warrensburg Arts Commission (WAC) for Public Art Design Proposals. The entry fee is cheap, and unlike many public art calls, this is not limited to sculpture. Take a closer work…

une assiette du
BLANC

All the dishes in my house are white. Okay, I have a couple of random colored pieces that I received as gifts, but even those are mostly white. I chose white because we celebrate the food, not the plate, at my house. It is a blank canvas–much like a blank gallery wall. This next Call is offering you the same opportunity, but in a gallery where it counts. Don’t chicken out, people…

CALL for ENTRIES: Patterns

Posted on July 20, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

NOT pizza
AGAIN!

It takes great restraint not to continue food patterns in our menus. I am guilty of taco night, pizza night, and buffalo chicken night. I am trying to rationalize it by changing up the taco and pizza ingredients, but it is a pattern, nonetheless. I’m not saying it si a bad thing, I just think it can lead to dangerous stall patterns that end in pre-packaged and fast food that I try to live without. This next Call wants to know all about your patterns. Let’s see ’em, folks…

REMINDER: Art Inter/National

Posted on June 4, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

REMINDER:

EAT your
HEART out!

While watching a TV show about how salami is made, my son announced that eating the organs of an animal is wrong. However, when I explained all the things that his new belief would eliminate from his menu, he then asked, “Do they at least WASH the intestines first?” Hehehe. These days I prefer my animal organs in the form of chicken pate, but I will have to start keeping the ingredient list to myself, apparently. This next Call for Entries involves a different sort of heart all together. This could be an excellent opportunity…

CALL for ENTRIES: Appropriated Gender

Posted on June 1, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

HEADS and COCKTAILS

Gender roles and alcoholic beverages are laughable. Out of town on business this week, I was sitting in the hotel bar watching women ordering glasses of wine and brightly-colored martinis while men ordered beer and brown liquors. Really, people? I know I live in the South, but do we really have to fulfill this stereotype. Kudos to the couple in the corner– he ordered a daiquiri (umbrella included), and she order a shot of something brown. You saved my night, folks. This next call is all about challenging notions of gender. Take a look…

SHINE ON!

It is all about local food, regardless of where local is. In South Carolina, it was boiled peanuts and mustard-based barbeque.

This next Call wants to know all about where YOU live. Be proud…
