CALL for ENTRIES: Light, Space & Time

Posted on January 26, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

DIPLOMACY STINKS

It is a happy, shiny New Year, and I am excited about the possibilities. Per usual, I am optimistic about the future… nauseatingly optimistic, according to my husband Jon. However, most folks will also tell you that my attitude toward life is often like my taste in food…direct, unapologetic and undiplomatic. Can food be unapologetic and undiplomatic? Absolutely. Have you ever met a cheese named Limberger? That sort of straight forwardness is what drew me to this next Call. Investigate…

Check out the Call for Entries from the Light, Space & Time Gallery for their online Landscapes competition. You know that I am not a huge fan of online competitions; however, I think of this as digital publication which is always a good thing. The entry fee is dirt cheap, and the value of inbound links to your website is priceless. Take a look…

GLUG-A-LUG

Why does beer come in six packs? My house is dotted with six packs. It isn’t like THAT. I am NOT a beer drinker, but my husband IS a beer brewer. My son’s room would be far less cluttered if beer were more efficiently packaged. Did I forget to mention that my husband stores his beer under my 12-year-old’s bed? Okay, I am going to stop before this sounds even worse. This call is a much better use of things that come in sixes. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Musical Influences

Posted on January 21, 2012January 21, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

HUMs
the WORD

Music (and dessert) are the cherry on the proverbial sundae at any meal. I have had the privilege of enjoying everything from a jug band at a pig pickin’ to authentic mariachi while eating tamales on a recent trip to Cozumel. But my favorite dinner music is the humming of my lactose-intolerant 12 year old when he delights in his favorite cheesy indulgence…pizza. This next call wants to hear about the music that delights you. Get to humming…

CALL for ENTRIES: International Painting NYC

Posted on October 29, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

Not GRANNY SMITH,
I presume?

I want to love apples, but truth be known, I don’t. Due to my proximity to multiple apple orchards, my not loving apples seems a little tragic. So, I keep going to the orchards, and I keep buying different varieties in the hopes that one result in an OMG moment. The Arkansas Black variety was nice, but I’m still looking. I had the try-and-try again attitude with painting for a long time, and every once in a while, I still get the painting bug. But, to date, I am not a good painter. This Call is meant for the good painters out there. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Beauty Comes in Many Forms

Posted on October 27, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

BEAUTIFUL,
you ARE what you EAT

Beauty is a perfectly golden crepe stuffed with mint-infused marscapone topped with a drizzle of warm, gooey dark chocolate. But then again, somedays beauty is a turkey sandwich or a bowl of butternut squash soup or the perfect raspberry. It is all about perspective and timing. This Call for Entries wants to know how you see beauty. I promise not to hold it against you if your image of beauty doesn’t involve food. Say it with art…

CALL for ENTRIES: Across, Between & Through

Posted on October 24, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

CARROT SOUP,
anyone?

I am always amazed by how a simple ingredient can be transformed into a magnificent dish. Root vegetables are the perfect example. Who would of thought that something that spent most of the time it has existed under the ground could be transformed into something beautiful, warm and nutty? I think of a luscious crock of roasted carrot soup with a hint of ginger and nutmeg. This Call wants you to contemplate transformation. Give it a try…

Check out this Call for Entries for TRANS: Across, Between and Through in the Clayton Staples Gallery at Witchita State University (Witchita, KS). You’ve gotta love art shows meant to make a comment on art itself. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
TRANS: Across, Between & Through

The concept of ‘trans’ seems to be a significant influence in the postmodern art world—where borders, dialogues, discourses and meanings have become increasingly unstable and negotiable. How have these changes and instabilities been documented in contemporary art and design practices? How does contemporary art engage with issues of transformation, translocation, and other ‘trans’ issues pertinent to identity, culture, politics, aesthetics, and everyday life?

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists.

MEDIA: All media, including photography, painting, sculpture, printmaking, performance, new media, video and emerging media.

November 10, 2011

AWARD: First, Second and Third Place will be decided by the Juror. Three cash prizes will be awarded: $300 for First Place, $200 for Second Place, and $100 for Third Place.

CALL for ENTRIES: What Comes After Modern?

Posted on October 23, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

INDOOR DINING

I love restaurants that reuse old builings and give them life with love and a whole lotta food. The exposed beams make my fried chicken even more of a comfort food, and modern loft-style architecture makes my deconstructed food seem all the more elevated and intellectual. Where we eat affects the taste of what we eat. It just does. Don’t you feel yourself gaining the pounds everytime you eat in front of the television? Me too. This Call asks you to further explore your connection to the buildings in your life. Take a look…

It has taken many failed attempts at breads, muffins and biscuits for me to come to grips with this unfortunate reality. And lately, the same is true with art.

TELL ME RYE

I am a fan of bold flavors, but I’ve never developed a taste for caraway seeds also known as rye. The one exception to my caraway seed rule is pumpernickel rye bread. Maybe it is the earthy texture of the pumpernickel and the more practical everyday uses for bread that make it my exception. This next Call is my second exception for acceptable rye. This is a great holiday opportunity…
