Blog/Art on the Underground

In recognition of the 100th anniversary of the symbol of London Underground and London’s transport system, the Roundel, which was refined by Edward Johnston in 1917, Art on the Underground have commissioned 100 artists to make brand new works of art that are inspired by the Roundel. The artworks are currently on show at the Rochelle School in Shoreditch, London, until October 30 and a selection of works will be exhibited on the Underground during September and October as posters and leaflets.

Pictured above is a poster design created by James Ireland.
