The BEAUTY
of HOME

My mother makes the ugliest chocolate chip cookies. They look like lumpy rocks, and as a teenager, I always longed for a mom that made Martha-Stewart-worthy sugar cookies decorated with colored sugar and dregees. But alas, I got a mom that makes ugly cookie that may taste better than anything I have ever put in my mouth! Home doesn’t always come in the pretty package you dream about, but it is still home. BTW, the secret to my mom’s cookies is semi-sweet mini chips and walnuts instead of pecans. This Call asks you to investigate what HOME means to you …good or bad.

Check out this Call for Entries from the Center for Fine Art Photography (Fort Collins, CO) for Home. This is a beautiful gallery that has repeatedly shown excellent curatorial vision. Don’t miss an opportunity to show at C4FAP!

CALL for ENTRIES: ONWARD Compé 2012

Posted on October 21, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

CUT
THE CHEESE,
please

Cheese plates annoy me. More accurately, cheese plates ON MENUS annoy me. Don’t offer me cheese and crackers or cheese and fruit. The world offers a buffet of cheeses. The term “cheese” is a category, not a description. Give me smoked gouda, or a triple-creme brie or a beautifully aged Stilton, but don’t offer me cheese. This next call is open to a buffet of artwork in the category of photography. Take a look…

RUFF SPUDS

My dogs love raw potatoes. I don’t get it. They love lots of raw veggies: broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, romaine spines…and potatoes. Now, I’m not one of those dog owners that feeds my dogs Doritos or junk food, but I must admit that when I’m cooking, they DO make great garbage disposals for veggie scraps. They are rescued mutts, and I love them– enough to scramble them an egg occasionally, too. There I’ve admitted it. This next Call gives you a chance to show your love for your rescued pups. Sit, stay and read…

Check out this Call for Entries for Rest in Show from the Linus Galleries’ Long Beach Art Gallery (Signal Hill, CA) that will take place at the same time as the Eukanuba National Championship Dog Show at the Long Beach Convention Center. Take a look…

MY STOMACH
is bigger than
MY WALLET

I am frugal, or cheap, depending on your viewpoint. I spend more on food each month than I do on rent, electricity and water combined. Ouch. One of the ways I combat the food bill is the local farmers’ market. We have lots of apple orchards in Tennessee, and one of them, Carver’s (pictured left), also features a farmer’s market. It is my first stop before going to the grocery store. This next call invites you to share a single image or your agricultural influence. Make me proud…

Check out this Call for Entries for Your American Farmer Photo Contest, a FREE online photo competition from Photographer Paul Mobley, the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT), and Hoodman. There is no entry fee and LOTS of great prizes. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: In Time

Posted on October 3, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

TICK TOCK,
TICK TOCK,
TICK TOCK

I prefer immediate gratification, be it chocolate or laundry. I simply don’t like to wait. That is one of the many reasons that I don’t bake chocolate soufflés–because I cannot handle the agony of seeing if it will turn out beautiful and puffed or flat and dreary. I lose enthusiasm for the whole laundry process during the dry time too (not that I am generally very enthused about it to start with). Although, I will take soufflé baking over laundry any day of the week. This next Call is a perfect opportunity for you to contemplate the passage of time, and not just of food and laundry. Think about it…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Kiernan Gallery in Lexington, VA for In Time. This entry fee is low, and I love the concept of contemplating the passage of time, a reflection if you will. Take a look!

CALL for ENTRIES: In Time

Time is an essential element of science, philosophy, and religion. Nonetheless its definition has continuously eluded the greatest minds. For In Time, The Kiernan Gallery welcomes images that interpret and define Time as subject matter, whether it be in a historical context of the then and now, time lapse, events and the interval between them, of a crucial moment, preserved for eternity. In a sense, every photograph is an embodiment of time.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists internationally.

MEDIA: All photographic media are encouraged.

DEADLINE:
October 26, 2011

NOTIFICATION:
On or around November 3, 2011

ENTRY FEE:
$25 for up to $5 images, then $5 per additional image up to a total of 10 images.

JUROR: Blake Fitch received her BFA on full scholarship from Pratt Institute (1994), with a major in photography and a minor in photo history. She earned her MA in Arts Administration from Boston University in 2001. Documentary in nature, Fitch’s work has focused on the human condition, including themes of: identiry, rites of passage, civil rights, belonging and the investigation of community in third world countries. Her work has been described as graceful and confident. The quality and breadth of her imagery has enabled her to receive a variety of grants and sponsorships including support from Kodak and Calumet Photographic. Her work has been exhibited internationally and held in the collections of numerous museums, including the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Worcester Art Museum, and the George Eastman House of Photography.

AWARDS: The juror will select up to 30 images for display in the main gallery, as well as up to an additional 40 for display in the online gallery. All accepted photographs are eligible for inclusion in a full color exhibition catalogue available for purchase from Blurb Books.

SALES: Artists exhibiting at the gallery may offer their work for sale. The Kiernan Gallery retains 30% of the sale price as commission.

GRAPES,
not raisins

Never miss a food field trip, be it big or small. Like anything else in life, if you miss an opportunity, sometimes you simply don’t ever get the chance again. Perfect example, I have lots of business in California these days in regards to this blogging empire (ha), personal art shows, group shows, etc., but because I didn’t visit The American Center for Wine, Food and the Arts when I DIDN’T have business in California, the opportunity is lost. Their doors closed in 2008. Pick the grapes when they are ripe, folks. This next call is an opportunity in an entirely different kind of Center. Don’t miss this one…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Center for Photographic Art (Carmel, CA) for their 2012 Juried Art Exhibition. The cash prizes are great, and you’ve still got over 6 weeks to submit. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Illusion and Chemistry

Posted on September 25, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

VERY DIRTY,
PLEASE

I love the fusion of classic dishes and modern cuisine. Deconstructed dishes are a perfect example. Like the caesar salad that comes with a mound of romaine, a poached egg and a sardine on crostini. Okay, that may be a little on the fringe. Maybe the pomegranite martini is a better example…shaken, not stirred. No, I prefer classic dirty martinis with lots o’ olives. Anyway, this next Call is a perfect opportunity to learn a new process…be it old & new to you or new & new to you. Think about it…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Kiernan Gallery in Lexington, VA for Illusion and Chemistry: The Alternative Process. This entry fee is low, and I love the concept of mixing old and new. Take a look!

CALL for ENTRIES: Illusion and Chemistry

Alternative process photography today is a hybrid of historical techniques and contemporary ideas. Despite, or perhaps because of, the digital revolution, early printing processes are in revival. Whether it is in reaction to digital, or a hybrid process aided by the technology, these techniques remain as evocative and dreamy as they ever were, bringing a unique style to present-day ideas. For Illusion and Chemistry: The Alternative Process, the Kiernan Gallery seeks images that use any alternative processing technique for any idea you wish to express.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists internationally.

MEDIA: Any photographic print created as a product of a non-traditional process is eligible. Processes may include but are not limited to: Albumen, Bromoil, Cyanotype, Daguerreotypes, Gum Bichromate, Platinotypes, Salt Prints, Temeraprints, Tintypes, Wet Plate Collodion. Hybrid or Combination images incorporating conventional (including digital) processes with hand-crafted applications are also eligible. Conventional techniques such as Silver Gelatin, Digital, and C-prints are not eligible.

DEADLINE:
November 25, 2011

NOTIFICATION:
On or around December 3, 2011

ENTRY FEE:
$25 for up to $5 images, then $5 per additional image up to a total of 10 images.

JUROR: Christopher James is an internationally known artist and photographer whose paintings and alternative process images have been exhibited in galleries and museums in this country and abroad.

His work has been published and shown extensively, including shows in The Museum of Modern Art, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The George Eastman House, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The first edition of his book, The Book of Alternative Photographic Process, received unprecedented critical acclaim and was the winner of The Golden Light Technical Book of the Year award.

TENNESSEE
TAPANADE!

Do you think I can grow olives and avocados in the Tennesse Mountains? I realize that the climate isn’t exactly right, but there have to be hybrid versions, right? My husband and I are working on the plans for our new home construction project, and I am obsessed with the green house. I am determined to figure out how to grow and nurture foods from around the world so I can indulge year ’round. This Call wants to know what YOUR vision of the natural world includes. Feel free to venture past just food…

Check out this Call for Entries from Darkroom Gallery in Vermont called Four Corners of the Earth. Enter your work for as little as $20. Don’t forget Darkroom offers free framing & matting on accepted work!

CALL FOR ENTRIES:
Four Corners
of the Earth

There is boundless beauty in our natural environment, from the intimate view of a blade of grass to the vast panoramic horizon. We need only show up with our cameras! How do we translate our personal visions of the natural world, through our photographic tools, and then to our audience?

Each of our relationships to nature is highly personal – they want to see yours. From the tonal depths of an Ansel Adams expansive environment, to the quiet pictorial gestures of an Edward Steichen moment, to contemporary masters’ views, such as our Juror George DeWolfe, who’s contemplative designs on natural beauty insight envy and inspiration.

They are looking for the kind of variety that is in nature herself. Sky’s the limit using contemporary methods, photographic paraphernalia, and a limitless bag of tricks, so whether your landscapes display a traditional approach, leave them questioning reality, or all that is in between, they can’t wait to see your version of this heaven we call Earth.

JUROR: George DeWolfe has been photographing since 1964. He studied with Ansel Adams and Minor White in the 1970’s and holds an MFA in Photography from the Rochester Institute of Technology. DeWolfe is widely published, most notably At Home In The Wild, George DeWolfe’s Digital Photography Fine Print Workshop and B&W Printing – each has received wide acclaim. His work has been seen in over fifty one-man exhibitions and is part of several permanent collections.

Currently a consultant to Epson, Adobe, Hahnemühle, X-rite, and Nik, George is one of the original 15 photographers on the Adobe Lightroom team, and developed Optipix and PercepTool, both Adobe Photoshop plug-ins. He teaches “The Digital Fine Print Workshop”, “B&W Master Print”, and “Contemplative Photography” throughout the United States. Winner of numerous awards, his most recent honor was Award for Artistic Excellence presented by The National Park Service. DeWolfe has photographed for many environmental organizations over the past 40 years: Appalachian Mountain Club, Sierra Club, Friends of the Earth, Mass Audubon, National Park Service, and Friends of Acadia..

Posted on September 13, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

MY BUFFALO
has WINGS

I get stuck on foods. I occasionally become obsessed, usually with a snack food, and eat it over and over and over until I get sick of it. Lately, I have been seriously stuck on Synder’s Hot Buffalo Wing pretzel pieces. Yes, I’m afraid so…your gourmet food loving blogger has a weakness for junk food, to the extreme sometimes. Maybe when you’re out shooting late night photographs for this next Call for Entries you could pick up an extra bag OR THREE for me. Because you have to have a back up plan…

The Dark Side: Night Photography

The jazzy neon glow of a motel sign… the silver hush of a moonlit landscape… the hollow loneliness of deserted city street lamps… the raucous revelry of a nightclub at midnight….NIGHT holds a special place in the heart of photography. The geometry of light and shadow creates an interplay of mystery, possibility, and the foreboding that accompanies paths of the unknown.

This October, as Halloween looms large on the horizon, 1650 invites you to visit THE DARK SIDE: A Juried Exhibit of Night Photography. Photographic greats such as Brassai, George Tice, Peter Hujar, Weegee and Robert Brook are just a few examples of those who have contributed great works in the genre of night photography.

OH MY…
the years of
BUTTERCREAM

I am not a big fan of birthday cake. But honestly, I am not a big fan of birthdays either for all the standard reasons of vanity and mortality.
