Art in the Napoli Subway




For 1.90 Euro you can ride Napoli’s new and still-under-construction subway system for an hour and a half. That is plenty of time to visit the 6 major subway stops which have art on display. There are a few other stops with art, but they were on a different line and too far away for us—maybe next time.  It is a cool idea to have art in the subway, and gives some rising young artists an audience they may not otherwise reach. Here are some photos of works I really liked below. Luckily, I did not get yelled at for taking photos until the last stop.

  1. Hi Ellen,

    Great job on the photos and commentary. I almost feel like I'm there with you and Liz, enjoying it all vicariously and without the calories.
