One of the most surprising titles we receieved last year that made its rounds around the Juxtapoz office was Nailed: The History of Nail Culture and Dzine. We had never seen nail art but into a fine art context, or documented so thoroughly as a sub-culture, and now Subliminal Projects in LA is showcasing an entire exhibition inspired by nail culture called, Nailed. The show features works by Gabriella Davi-Khorasanee, Dzine, Simone Lueck, Jamel Shabazz, and more.

Jamel Shabazz' seminal Back In the Days, a chronicling of hip-hop culture in NYC from 1980-89, is getting a 10th anniversary remix courtesy of powerHouse Books. The new edition will feature additional images, text by Fab 5 Freddy and Jeff Chang. This is the book that started the trend, so we say go with the source. Full cover image after the jump . . .
