Mexico - Guimard

This is another example of a Paris-Mexico exchange. One of Bellas Artes metro station's entrance is a copy of a Guimard station's entrance in Paris. I'm not sure, but I think in Paris you have a copy of the entrance to a mexican metro station.

or you can post an original Guimard entrance and we can see if it's really an identical copy.

what is "mexican" style for a metro station???

I don't know that. They're not art noveau, that's for sure, but i don't know if their style has a name. The metro in Mexico city was open in 1969.

En Paris, desafortunadamente no existe ninguna entrada o salida del Metro, estilo mexicano. Sin embargo, dentro del marco de este intercambio, el pueblo de México dono un precioso cuadro Huichol a la RATP, el cual adorna un pasillo del Metro Palais Royal.

Gracias, Jiménez

According to Jimenez, unfortunately, in Paris there is not a mexican style entrance to a metro station. Nevertheless, in this exchange, Mexico donated a precious Huichol painting to the RATP, which is in a Palais Royal metro corridor.
