59 St–Columbus Circle (A/B/C/D/1) — Sol LeWitt's 'Whirls and Twirls'

What creators say

  • “This gateway to Central Park was transformed in 2008 by conceptual art legend Sol LeWitt's 'Whirls and Twirls' — a sweeping 300-foot-long mosaic of vivid, interlocking geometric patterns in bright primary colors lining the mezzanine walls. LeWitt applied his signature systematic logic to create a hypnotic wall of color and motion that energizes the entire station. One of the most beloved and photographed works in the MTA's permanent collection.”
