Tonight at Lo-Fi Collective. Scott Owen, Craig Atkins, Slug, Sprinkles, Houl, Birdhat & Amanda Rondonuwu.
Freedom of religion has given way for a departure from traditional religions to more personal forms of worship. Infamous icons such as the cross or Mother Mary replaced by tools to create such as the skateboard or aerosol can. New god like creatures and fictitious fantasies are created to replace traditional stories of religion followed for generations.
Worship Nothing explores the iconography within contemporary subcultures.

The Calligraffiti Upside Down Tour includes exhibitions, book signings, live mural painting and lectures in Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland and Singapore. Rather than ship artwork from abroad, NSM will make site-specific art in each city. At all exhibitions and other events, the artist will be available for interviews, and on hand to sign his book Calligraffiti with personalized dedications.
The Upside Down Tour kicks off in Sydney, where Likeminded Studio is hosting an exhibition from 25 to 30 January at the artist run kind of — gallery on Oxford Street. In addition, the legendary Kinokuniya Bookstore will host an exhibition in their Wedge Gallery from 25 January until February 7, 2012. Sydney will see some live calligraffiti going up in the May’s Lane Street Art Project on 27 January.

We are now half way through December, so it’s about the time when shopping centres start packing full with families, kids, grandma’s, grandpa’s and last minute shoppers. We prefer to stay out of harms way and shop online. Below is a list of goodies to fill either your or someone else’s stocking.
1. We currently have a rare zine/screenprinted bag package from Sydney’s infmaous SLUG.
At only $15 it’s a steal. Click here.
2. Meggs has just released a Boxed Edition T-Shirt which includes a hand screenprinted box, with signed 3 colour A4 screenprint & Meggs stickers. These look really top quality. Get one while you can. Click here.
3. Another Everfresh member, REKA has a few screenprints for sale at the moment. All are equally as good, this one jumped out at us though. Click here.
4. Numskull has released a brand new edition of one colour stencil prints with Stupid Krap. The edition is only a small 25, so get in quick. Click here.
5. After seeing her immense floating girl wall at Outpost, we’re sure everyone will be jumping on these limited prints by Vexta. Click here.
6. Off the back of his Outpost murals and current exhibition ‘Cosmic Nature’, Beastman has also released a limited edition zine documenting ALL of his outdoor walls. Click here.
7. Dangerfork is one of the newest print stores to appear on the scene, with their release by PRIZM catching our eye. Prizm hardly ever releases new artwork so this is a rare opportunity. Click here.
8. Finally, Gallery AS (as we have mentioned) have released a print with Mark Whalen (Kill Pixie). We have picked one of these up for ourselves and we reccomend you do the same. The artwork is classic and the print quality is second to none. Click here.

Back in August we ran quite a generous giveaway of zines by Slug. There were only 15 to give, and they went SUPER quick.
This time round we are announcing the real release of Sugar Shark Issue One. A rare collectors item that will disappear just as quick.
This time around, Slug has created an edition of 20 white cover zines and 40 zine/tote bag combos. The zine/tote bag combo includes a hand made zine AND a hand silk screen-printed (by the artist) tote bag. There are two different designs on the totes, and two different covers (black or white). These are ALL different and cannot be chosen. We pick them randomly for you.

For any enquiries email sales@theopeninghours.com.au
