When the New York Subway
opened in 1904, its founders NEW NEW NEW
declared that the system was a
“great public work”, where every 8QOIRR-;AJSSV 8QOIRR-;AJSAM 8QOIRR-;AJSDZ
design element showed respect
for customers and improved
the experience of travel through
beauty and design.
Continuing on this philosophy,
in 1985 the Metropolitan
Transportation Authority of New
York created the MTA Arts &
Design, formerly known as the
Arts for Transit and Urban
Design. The program
commissions art from artists
all throughout New York. Since
its formation, the MTA Arts &
Design has installed art in more
than 260 transit stations.
Over 300 artists have been
commissioned for the program, Feel the Rhythm (NPZSW2010) Harlem Serenade (NPZSW2009) Moonlight Moment (NPZSW2011)
