ART IN THE METRO

A Montreal treasure

From the works showing off the history of Montreal in the first network, to the audacious abstraction of the later extensions, Montreal’s metro is filled with a profusion of public artwork by some of the biggest names in Quebec culture. This magnificent part of Montreal’s heritage is yours to see for the price of a metro ticket—or with the click of a mouse.

In this section, each artwork will have its own page where you’ll discover plenty of information about its style, history, and message, with access to biographical details about its artist and their other works of public art, especially in Montreal.

Current status: This section of the site is under reconstruction. Presently, links to artist pages redirect here. All metro artworks can be seen on their respective station pages.
