CALL for ENTRIES: Happy Accidents

Posted on July 12, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

BANANAS
with salt

I am addicted to salty crunch–but not in the way you would think. It isn’t potato chips, although I do love them dearly. No, I am newly addicted to bananas with peanut butter and chunky sea salt. Odd, I know. It was a happy accident, really. We buy unsalted natural peanut butter and salt it ourselves. And, when my salt grinder started acting up, I ended up with HUGE salt boulders on my bananas with peanut butter. Now, they HAVE to be boulders. This next Call might just appreciate my happy accident. Check it out…

CALL for ENTRIES: Abstraction

Posted on July 8, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

ROMAINE
parm & garlic

I’ll take the Abstracted Caesar–hold the deconstruction. I love it when culinary lingo takes a weird side trek. Apparently the minute difference is that deconstructed food is technically a dish with ALL of its components separated. Meanwhile, abstracted food features only the main components separated out. Hilarious. In the meantime, this next Call wants your Abstract work, not deconstructive work. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Santa Cruz Art League (CA) for Degrees of Abstraction. We love this arts organization, and the juror has a well-documented personal style that runs contrary to the exhibition’s theme. Interesting…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Abstraction

Moving beyond verisimilitude abstraction frees the artist from the object. This opens the door for a vast variety of visual interpretations which indeed makes abstract art the most challenging. The artist’s facility with the materials & focus on surface makes abstraction particularly interesting today. But w/o personal content, symbolism or “event”, it risks becoming conceptually mundane & void of meaning.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to US artists

MEDIA: Printmaking, drawing, painting, bookmaking, collage, photography & 3D

DEADLINE: August 31, 2014

ENTRY FEE: $45 Non-member up to 3 / $35 SCAL Members ($20 fee/box for shipped work)

CALL for ENTRIES: Wheels

Posted on June 30, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

HOT WINGS
not hot wheels

I am proud that we cook most of our meals at home; however, I feel compelled to be honest. I live in a delivery wasteland. I live in a town where the only thing you can get delivered is pizza. If my local smoked brisket purveyor had wheels, we’d all be in trouble. Here’s a call all about wheels. Get a move on…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Wheels. Low entry ($24) plus a great juror. If you gotta be blue, do it this way…

*Editor’s Note: It is important to let the Darkroom know you found their Call on artandartdeadlines.com. They are friends of AAAD, and I want them to know they have our support…

CALL for ENTRIES: Wheels

Next to the discovery of fire, the invention of the wheel has been the most significant achievement in the development of human culture and civilization.

The horse drawn chariot revolutionized warfare, while the stone wheel of the gristmill made it possible to process enough grain to feed increasing numbers of city dwellers, and the oxcart provided transportation for people and produce. In the modern era, life would be unimaginable without wheels. America is truly a “car culture”. The rest of the world is not far behind.

How do you envision wheels in your own life? Maybe you’re a car nut, a lover of anything that looks sleek and goes fast, from a Grand Prix car to a NASCAR racer, to a land speed record vehicle. Or perhaps you’re more aware of other types of wheels, such as those on bicycles, baby carriages, or trains. And then there are Ferris wheels and pinwheels, skateboards and rollerblades. Conveyer belts and steamboats. The possibilities are nearly limitless. — from darkroomgallery.com

CALL for ENTRIES: Blue

FOOD ISN’T BLUE

I have an aversion to blue foods. Blueberries & blue potatoes are really both fairly purple. Every other blue food I can think of is artificial and always screams, “bio-hazard” at me like blue drinks, candies and frosting. But have you every noticed if you go to a carnival, 5 out of 6 kids have blue rings around their mouths or blue tongues from shaved ice or cotton candy or gummy worms? Is it an age thing? I don’t know. Just don’t try to feed me your entry for this next show and we’ll be all good. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Blue

Blue is a favorite color of all people, yet it has more complex and contradictory meanings than any other hue.

Throughout the ages, as the natural world’s color for water and sky, blue lends itself to spiritual and heavenly leanings. In these modern days, blue is embraced as the color of heaven and authority, denim jeans and corporate logos. Most blues convey a sense of trust, loyalty, cleanliness, and understanding. On the other hand, blue evolved as symbol of depression in American culture. “Singing the blues” and feeling blue” are good examples of the complexity of color symbolism and how the color has been evolved in different cultures.

For this show Darkroom Gallery is looking for all types of blue images & meanings. All the variances of the color: electric, royal, baby, periwinkle, azure, midnight, navy, dark and light. We are intrigued by naturally occurring blues and man-made blues alike. Whole images consisting of the color, or the choice sections of a photograph that astutely display the power of blue. — from darkroomgallery.com

The art in my kitchen is more commonly viewed than any other work in my house.

My collection ranges from diary collage applied to toasters to beautiful textural miniature abstracts to large flying pigs. This next Call could help you get your work in someone else’s kitchen.

a MILK MUSTACHE
& public service

I need a food segue about Colorado, but did you know that Colorado doesn’t even have a state food? So bizarre. Truth be told, when I hear Colorado— specifically, Pueblo, Colorado–I always think of the PSAs that ran between Saturday morning cartoons when I was little. I am sure I am giving away my age, but I can clearly remember having a milk mustache and hearing, “For more information, write to ‘Pueblo, Colorado, 81009’,” (home of the Federal Citizen Information Center). It is a shame that sort of random trivia doesn’t make me a genius. This next Call hails from Pueblo, and genius would come in handy. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Kadoya Gallery (Pueblo, CO) for Industrial. This gallery claims its focus as “emerging creative genius”! What’s not to love about that criteria? I’m full of creative genius. You too?

CALL for ENTRIES:
Industrial

One may characterize industrial as large metal structures, both new and aged, twisting and climbing their way into focus, tightly-wound steel cables, factory floors, and the heavy iron of old railroad trusses. Within the notion of the industrial, however, there is an human emotional attachment connected to the laborer and labor movement, as well. We challenge you to take this subject in any direction and focus you may feel fits the theme.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Open to all photographic processes

CHICKY

When I was pregnant, I couldn’t eat anything that looked like a bird. The smell of fresh-roasted chicken made me ill. And, while I could eat a chicken nugget or bad, food-service breaded chicken patty, the mere sight of a drumstick would make me violently ill. At the time, I worked behind the cheese counter at The Gourmet Shop–which was, and still is, famous for the hundreds of pounds of chicken salad they make & sell everyday. That job didn’t last long. This next Call IS NOT for roasted birds; I suspect they would prefer imagery of birds that are still very much alive. Just sayin’…
