TfL is celebrating 25 years of Art on the Underground with four new artworks

For 25 years, Art on the Underground has been filling the Underground with art. It’s what they do, and they do it well. They’ve put Mark Wallinger, Zadie Xa, David Hockney, Laure Prouvost and tons of others on the Underground: if you’ve spotted a beautiful painting on your way into Brixton tube station, or maybe seen a maze-like image on any number of platforms around the tube network, that’s them what done it. 

And to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Art on the Underground, the programme is launching four new artworks across the city to brighten up your commutes. The works include a sound installation at Waterloo by Rory Pilgrim, a new pocket tube map by Agnes Denes, a large-scale collaborative artwork by Ahmet Öğüt and a new mural at Brixton station (taking the place of Hannah Quinlan and Rosie Hastings’ current work) by Rudy Loewe.

‘Across 2025, the programme will interrogate how art can save us and what it means to gather together, in shared space and with local communities. Seen and heard by millions, the 2025 programme is a response to London today, whilst always reflecting on our past and possible futures,’ says Eleanor Pinfield, the head of the programme. 

Commuting can be tough even at the best of times, but Art on the Underground has helped take the edge off over the past 25 years. Here’s to another quarter century of putting art where it don’t belong.

The four new artworks will be unveiled throughout the year, more details here
