Woah. Gotta say, our trip up to Sydney this week couldn’t come at a better time – what other kind of show than an aMBUSH show? Held at The Galeries? Curated and put together by one of our favourite dudes in a T – Eddie Zammit? With guests Hit + Run?

“In an exciting partnership between aMBUSH Gallery, The Galeries and founder of T-world, Eddie Zammit, Sydney will play host to a diverse selection of artists and designers from around the world in the heart of the CBD.

Visitors can quite literally immerse themselves in the world of tees when they visit The Galeries. Zammit, himself the owner of over 4,000+ T-shirts, has generously donated almost 200 T-shirts from his collection to build a large scale globe installation made entirely of tees, which will hang from the The Galeries atrium throughout September and October as a testament to the long standing, universal appeal of the T-shirt.

As well as the T-shirt globe installation, visitors can also discover a new Lane Four exhibition called I love T’s, curated by Zammit and aMBUSH Gallery. Appearing straight off the back of the hugely popularCommunity Service Announcements exhibition by Jeremyville, ‘I love T’s’ at Lane Four will feature a personal portrait and information by ten international T-shirt labels.

I love T’s will be exhibiting from 20 September to 26 November with photography portraits by Nicole Reed of Auckland’s Nick Joblin (collective edition), Brisbane’s Jimmy Bligs (Grand Scheme), Chicago’s Ross Zietz (Threadless), London’s Alan Wardle (AnyForty), LA’s Mike Crivello and Brandy Flower (HIT+RUN), Melbourne’s Brendan Elliott (BURN), New York’s Greg Rivera (Mishka), San Francisco’s Joshy D (REBEL8), Sydney’s own Natalie Wood (Something Else) and Umea’s Peter Lundgren (T-post).

HIT+RUN will be at The Galeries from 6-9pm on Thursday, 20 September in a special event hosted by The Galeries. Visit their website here for information.”
