Los Angeles Metro is set to unveil three new stations on the D Line Extension on May 8, 2026, featuring massive site-specific art installations. The Wilshire/La Brea, Wilshire/Fairfax, and Wilshire/La Cienega stations have been transformed into underground galleries showcasing large-scale murals, mosaics, and photographic works by prominent Los Angeles-based artists including Karl Haendel, Eamon Ore-Giron, and Ken Gonzales Day.
This initiative continues Metro Art's decades-long mission to integrate high-caliber contemporary art into public infrastructure, enhancing the commuter experience ahead of the 2028 Olympics. By commissioning works that reflect the archaeological, cultural, and historical contexts of the surrounding neighborhoods—such as Museum Row and Miracle Mile—the project reinforces the role of public transit as a vital space for civic engagement and cultural expression.
