I asked the cop where the Lichtenstein Mural is in Times Square.
He had no idea what I was talking about. But when I showed him the picture, he remembered it and sent me in the right direction.
That's the thing about subway art. Its there. People notice it. But they don't actually know they're seeing art.
I am fascinated by art in the subways. Here are a few links
A great video with interviews with the artists -some quite renown
A subway guide- a list of some of the better known pieces of art.
Or download the app Meridian for either Iphones or Androids for a really thorough collection of information on subway art including podcasts, directions and station by station explanations.
