The Kendall Band is a three-part musical sculpture created between 1986 and 1988 by Paul Matisse,[1] who is the grandson of French artist Henri Matisse and stepson of surrealist artist Marcel Duchamp.[2] It is installed between the inbound and outbound tracks of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority's Kendall Station located in Cambridge, Massachusetts near the MIT campus. As of 2007, the art work was seen by an estimated 12,518 riders on an average weekday.[3] It had originally cost $90,000 to construct.[4]

The three parts of the interactive work are called Pythagoras, Kepler, and Galileo, and are all controlled by levers located on the subway platforms.[5]
