Amanda Ross-Ho: Untitled T-Shirt, (NONAGENARIAN), 2018

On view in the Chicago Athletic Association Hotel lobby from September 27 – October 25 will be a very special installation featuring one of Amanda Ross-Ho’s renowned large-scale T-Shirt works, in celebration of Mickey Mouse’s 90th Anniversary. The work pays homage to one of the world’s most widely recognized apparel items, the iconic Mickey Mouse T-Shirt and its long-standing status in pop culture.

After the installation closes in Chicago, the artwork will travel to New York City where it will be on display from November 2018 – February 2019 at “Mickey: The True Original Exhibition,” an immersive art experience inspired by Mickey’s status as a ‘true original’ & his consistent impact on the arts in all its forms. Curated by artist Darren Romanelli, aka DRx, the exhibit will feature original works from top contemporary artists including Amanda Ross-Ho, Kenny Scharf and Shinique Smith. Tickets are on sale now at disney.com/MickeyTrueOriginal.
