STRAWBERRIES

Do you peel tomatoes?  I have a friend that doesn’t like “edges” on her food.  No joke.  She does the standard stuff like no crust on bread, but she also peels EVERY fruit & vegetable–strawberries, grapes, and yes, even tomatoes.  I peel kiwi, bananas & canteloupe, but some stuff really is just easier to eat.  Is it just me?  This next Call wants ALL your edges (and curves).  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Haggus Society (Los Angeles, CA) for the Edges & Curves 4 .  $12.50 is one of the lowest entry fees you’ll ever see.  The Haggus Society is a sponsor of AAAD, and I am also a member.  The theme is open; please enter & make us proud…

Edges & Curves 4

 

Challenging the myth that cutting edge art is created only by young artists, The Haggus Society & Julie Montenegro State Farm, are hosting Edges & Curves 4.

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to artists age 40+

MEDIA:  2D art (no larger than 32″ x 44″) & small 3D art (no larger than 14″ x 10″ x 8″)

DEADLINE:  June 1, 2015

NOTIFICATION:  June 5, 2015

ENTRY FEE:  $12.50 for non-members. No entry fee for Hags.

JUROR:  Terri Lloyd is a San Francisco Bay Area transplant who has called Los Angeles home since 1980.  Under the influence of a Sixties latch-key-kid youth, the circumstances of a working class life did not provide the conventional means to an art education or experience.  Introduced to the Apple computer in the 1980s, a love affair with digital technology was born.  Lloyd’s career has been a two-pronged path between fine & commercial arts.

In 2010, Lloyd retired from the commercial arts path to pursue a lifelong interest of fine arts.  She continues to become more active as a leader in community arts organizations and activities.  When not working in the studio, Lloyd runs The Haggus Society, a feminist art collective for women over the age of 40.

SALES:  The Haggus Society does not automatically take a commission; however, a small donation in the event of sales would be appreciated.  Please include this in your pricing.  If a work is not for sale please indicate with NFS.

*Just one other note.  I showed work in the first Edges & Curves exhibit after meeting Terri Lloyd through the Featured Artist contest.  Since then, I have found a community of creatives I love and enjoyed benefit of a solo show in L.A.  Now I am a lifetime member, AND they are lifetime sponsors of this site.  I can’t imagine not having these folks as a part of my creative life.  It is amazing what $12.50 can do.

MENU

Frequently, the most memorable kitchen creations are happy accidents.  As much as I love a list, theme and a plan, sometimes I find myself in a situation that forces me to create a masterpiece from what I have on hand or try something new on the spur of the moment.  My favorite chicken-cheddar-broccoli soup came about as a necessary use of what I could find in the frig.  Now it is a winter menu staple in our house. This next Call is a show that is both un-juried & un-curated, but I KNOW this organization.  It will definitely be a show not to be missed, and you can be a part of it.  Please investigate this one…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Haggus Society (Los Angeles) for The UN Show.  Enter for only $12.50 or FREE if you’re a member.  This is a great resume builder…

My current kitchen kryptonite is the potato.  I love them. I love them. I love them.  They do not love me.  They spike my blood sugar–which is fun, I’ll admit.  But the eventual crash off the sugar results in my desire to stuff my face and take a 3-day long nap.  I never realized how many I ate until I started trying to reduce my sugar intake. Wish me luck.  This next Call will let you expose your own kryptonite, or not.  Take a look…

I cannot escape corn. It is in everything from maltodextrin to corn syrup; you can’t escape.  And since 80-90% of that corn is genetically modified, I’m not thrilled.  While remodeling a room recently, we were cutting luan (a type of plywood) for a wall application, and what did I smell?  Burnt corn.  I would bet large sums of money that the glue that holds those layers of veneer together is made with corn.  Okay, I’ll stop bitching about corn now.  Need to bitch about something?  This next show is your perfect opportunity.  Take a look…

Wheat is in EVERYTHING.  Even marshmallows are often off-limits because of a common form of flour-coating to prevent clumping.  Even if I weren’t allergic to wheat, why would I want it in everything?  It is in all of your soups, your nacho cheese and even in your caramel-colored roast beef.  It really pisses me off.  Just saying.  This next Call wants to know what YOU have to bitch about.  Take a look…

I think people drink more wine at the holidays because of all the whining.  Wine won’t stop people FROM whining, but it will certainly help you tune them out.  Bitching, when done correctly, can’t be tuned out–regardless of wine consumption.  This next Call is all about the bitching, but I suspect the wine is welcome too.  Take a look…

My taste buds are aging well. I can still tell the difference between Parmesan, Romano and Asiago cheeses–even in bad grocery-store-powdered form. And, I have fallen newly in love with beets. My art is getting better too. Who knew? Well, the Haggus Society knew; that’s who. This next Call want to prove that we all get better with age. This is a great opportunity!

Edges & Curves,
Nothing in Between

 

Last year, 2011, the Haggus Society presented the 1st annual Edges & Curves, Nothing In Between exhibition which successfully challenged the myth that older artists have little to no edge.

This year’s theme “Close Your Eyes” will explore wedge issues presented in the public discourse via all channels of media consumption.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to any artist 40 years and older

Read the Full Call from The Haggus Society!MEDIA: 2D (no larger than 32″ x 44 inches), small 3D (no larger than 14″ x 10″ x 8″inches). They are considering opening up the exhibition to performance, music, spoken word/poetry. So, feel free to send those media as submissions, too.

DEADLINE: July 4, 2012

ENTRY FEE: $12.50 for up to 6 images for non-members. Submission fees are waived for Haggus Society members in good standing.

JUROR: Natalie Abrams’ work examines suspending moments in time; the physical and textural experience of those moments, the delicate beauty of our surroundings and the difficulty of preserving the present. An environmentalist, Abrams’ abstract landscapes were first exhibited at the R&F Gallery in the three person show “Not Seeing the Forest”.

Learn more about Fractured Atlas!Using a technique as fluid and unpredictable as nature itself, led to the development of her highly sculptural ribbon paintings; pieces which blur the line between painting and sculpture. The ribbon works have been exhibited in national exhibitions including the Third Annual Encaustic Invitational, as a highlighted artist at Ball State University with Encaustic Works 07, as well as the 2010 book “Encaustic & Beyond”.

Abrams’ latest work further explores humanity’s relationship to our surroundings in the form of sculptural landscapes and topography, and the mirrored societal relationships therein. Development of this work into freestanding installation works will be the focus of her upcoming Affiliate Artist Residency with the McColl Center.

SALES: The Haggus Society receives a 40% commission from all art sold. Please include this in your pricing. If a work is not for sale please indicate with NFS.
