Comment: One of the sources that are cited sounds as if it's both substantive and independent of the project: Moya, Rodrigo (2007). Obras permanentes de Metroarte. Análisis crítico desde una perspectiva semiótica (in Spanish). Universidad de Chile.Is this a published book, or what? We're not told. (If it's an unpublished thesis, it's not a reliable source.) What analyses of MetroArte have been written by art historians, art critics, art journalists etc who are independent of MetroArte? It's these, if they exist, that would demonstrate that MetroArte is notable. Hoary (talk) 08:55, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

MetroArte, officially known as Corporación Cultural MetroArte in Spanish, is a Chilean foundation established by Santiago Metro for the realization of artistic or cultural activities and works within the stations of the network.[1]
History
[edit]MetroArte was established in 1992 by the Department of Corporate Affairs of Metro.[2] One of its main accomplishments is the MetroArte Project, which involves the installation of artistic works "with the goal of transforming the metro stations into cultural experiences and bring art closer to citizens."[3]
In addition to public institutions, the project can be economically supported by private companies and corporations, offering tax benefits for donations as stipulated by the Chilean Cultural Donations Law.[3][4]
The first MetroArte artwork is Interior Urbano (Urban Interior), an oil on canvas by Chilean painter Hernán Miranda, inaugurated in Universidad de Chile in 1993.[5] As of 2023, MetroArte artworks encompass over 10,000 square meters of permanent art both inside and around the Metro stations.[6]
Currently, more than 60 works are on display in the Santiago metro,[7] including Roberto Matta's Verbo America,[8] a 300-square-meter untitled mural designed by Agatha Ruiz de la Prada[9], the 400-square-meter billboard-like photomontage Agora by Javier Godoy[10] and a series of copies of ancient Greek art as part of an initiative between the Greek Ministry of Culture and the Chilean government.[11][12]
