Name and pictogram


The station is named for the Palacio de Bellas Artes opera house and museum, opened in 1934 and located next to the station.[8] The pictogram depicts a stylized version of the palace's art nouveau façade as seen from the main southern entrance.[2][3][4]


History

The Line 2 section of the station was among the first to be opened in the system on 14 September 1970; the transfer with Line 8 was inaugurated on 20 July 1994.[9]

French President Jacques Chirac inaugurated a treasured Hector Guimard style art nouveau Paris Métro entrance next to the western wing of the Palace on 14 November 1998.[10][11][12] The entrance was a gift given in return for the mural El pensamiento y el alma huicholes by Huichol artist Santos de la Torre presented in 1997 to the Paris Métro that is now on display at the Palais Royal – Musée du Louvre station.[13]


General information


Inside the station, the platforms in Line 2 show reproductions of Mesoamerican art. Similarly, the Line 8 platforms are decorated with colourful murals, with Mexican and French motifs: a reproduction of one of the Bonampak murals by Rina Lazo; Visión francesa sobre México by Jean-Paul Chambas, and Visión de un artista mexicano sobre Francia by Rodolfo Morales.[14]

As many stations in the Metro network, Bellas Artes has a cyber center, where users can access internet through a computer; the service is free and it is open from 8:00 to 20:00. From here, it is also possible to transfer to Metrobús Line 4 and Line A of the trolleybus service.[14]
