Blu - A very long story
Opposite to the station, in the underpass that leads into Viale Galilei, you can see "A very long story" by the Italian street artist BLU, one of the most internationally acclaimed. The work is a real story in stages of the evolution of the human being, from the first microorganisms to man in flesh and blood. The artist does not spare a veiled criticism to contemporary society and represents the last human beings of the work with weapons and rifles.
The mural is a bit eroded by the smog and the passage of time, as it has been ten years since its completion. In full respect of the logic of street art, BLU has refused any possibility of restoring the work, since in its conception it was foreseen a death from progressive deterioration.
