After a successful show at Art Basel in Miami, Reebok Classics teamed up again with photographer / director Jonathan Mannion to take his “CLASSIC” exhibition to Los Angeles during Grammy week. Another 17 images were carefully selected to add some west coast flavor, a female dimension and an R&B presence to the show. The expansion yielded a total of 52 prints on display. Continuing his collaborative series with artists, Mannion showcased the visual contributions from Nipsey Hustle, Pharrell, DJ Quik and Big Daddy Kane on their respective images.
Over the course of five days, five classic albums from five boroughs will be revisited in lectures and workshops throughout NYC.
