I also wrote the forward and supplied some archival subway tunnel images for the book,
which is published by Rizzoli and edited by John and Jiae of Theme Magazine.
Here is the official press release and invite :

After a full year underground, The Underbelly Project is resurfacing this December in Miami during Art Basel.
Presented in its own pop up gallery from 30 November – 5 December,
the show will feature original artwork from 35 of the 103 international artists that participated in the hidden subway project.
This exhibition will highlight the essence of the abandoned New York City station known as the Underbelly.

Workhorse has stated: “The New York Underbelly was an important chapter for us, but the story hadn’t been comprehensively told.
The Underbelly Miami show gives us a chance to present the broad scope of documentation ;
Videos, photos, time-lapses and first hand accounts.
The project is about more than just artwork.  This show gives us a chance to show the people and the environment behind the artwork“
PAC has stated: “While the experience each artist had in their expedition underground can never be captured,
it is my hope that this show will highlight some of the trials and tribulations
associated with urban art taking place in the remote corners of our cities.
Too often the practice of making art in unconventional venues remains shrouded in mystery and I hope this exhibition
will shine a faint light on those artists who risk their safety to find alternative ways to create and be a part of the cities they live in.”

Included in the show are street, graffiti and fine artists alike. The full line-up of artists include:
Faile, Dabs & Myla, TrustoCorp, Aiko, Rone, Revok, Ron English, Jeff Soto, Mark Jenkins, Anthony Lister, Logan Hicks, Lucy McLauchlan,

Fashioned to resemble the abandoned station four stories beneath the bustle of New York City,
the exhibit will attempt to capture the experience of artists’ that were invited leave their creative mark four stories beneath the city streets.
The show will feature video footage of artists at work, still documentation, as well as recorded sounds heard in the tunnel.
