Art in the métro



This book celebrates the 50 anniversary of Montreal's subway. The Montréal métro is truly an art gallery. Dozens of murals, stained glass panels and sculptures of all shapes and colors were installed in most of the network’s 68 stations, for the enjoyment and benefit of all métro riders. The métro is an essential component of Montréal’s civic heritage and often appears in movies and ads filmed on location throughout the city.

This book takes the viewer through the different artworks supported by historical and architectural information. This publication really captures the Montreal spirit and metropolitan feeling that characterize the island.
