"The Mexico City metro has been operating since 1969, with miles of underground tunnels and passageways that are home to the largest public art gallery in the world. As the metro has expanded and evolved over the course of fifty years, it now includes 195 stations on 12 distinct lines. The art collection has grown, too, featuring over 300 artists from 50 different nationalities. Certain stations have notable works, like the Garibaldi/Lagunilla Station, which is a tribute to Mexican boxing. The station has been transformed into a miniature boxing-themed museum, celebrating the sport’s rich history and its iconic figures." - Scarlett Lindeman, Susannah Rigg
