You Can't Miss This:
NYC Subway Art

Since I miss New York so much, I decided to continue talking about the wonderful city with a post I found on UnBeige about NYC Subway Art.

By Friday, I pretty much mastered how to maneuver around on the subway. At every stop, there were different artworks displayed on the walls. On UnBeige's blog post, they showed you an app where you can take a look at all of them!

There are 237 works of contemporary art that you could find on the New York City Subway, Long Island Rail Road, Metro-North Railroad, and MTA bridges and tunnels. There are different artists who have contributed to each stop, such as Alice Adams and Joe Zucker.

After seeing these beautiful works of mural art in person, I wondered who created them and why they were there... hence my interest in this blog post. Some are created through mosaic collage, while others could be painted. If you can appreciate street art design, you have to download this app and check it out!
