An Underground Movement: Designers, Builders, Riders

Description

Owen Smith lauds the designers, engineers, and workers who built the New York City subway system with these large and lively mosaics. The influence of WPA-era and 1930s Mexican muralists on this design, which celebrates the dignity of labor, is clear. An MTA Arts for Transit project.

Constructed, 1998
