'''{{lang|fr|Arts-Loi|italic=no}}''' ([[French language|French]]) or '''{{lang|nl|Kunst-Wet|italic=no}}''' ([[Dutch language|Dutch]]) is a [[Brussels Metro]] [[List of Brussels metro and premetro stations|station]] on lines [[Brussels Metro line 1|1]], [[Brussels Metro line 2|2]], [[Brussels Metro line 5|5]] and [[Brussels Metro line 6|6]]. It is located in the [[City of Brussels]], Belgium, under the intersection of the [[Rue de la Loi|Rue de la Loi/Wetstraat]] and the {{lang|fr|Avenue des Arts|italic=no}}/{{lang|nl|Kunstlaan|italic=no}}, after which it is named, the latter street being part of the [[Small Ring, Brussels|Small Ring]] (Brussels' inner ring road).
The station's lower level opened on 17 December 1969, under the name '''{{lang|fr|Arts|italic=no}}/{{lang|nl|Kunst|italic=no}}''', as a ''[[Trams in Brussels|premetro]]'' (underground tram) station on the tram line between [[De Brouckère station|De Brouckère]] and [[Schuman station|Schuman]]. Its name was changed to its current form in 1971. This station was upgraded to full [[rapid transit|metro]] status on 20 September 1976, serving former east–west line 1 (further split in 1982 into former lines 1A and 1B). The station was extended on 2 October 1988 with the opening of the line 2 station, located on the upper level. Then, following the reorganisation of the Brussels Metro on 4 April 2009, it is served by lines 1, 2, 5 and 6.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Line 1 direction GARE DE L'OUEST - stib-mivb.be |url=https://www.stib-mivb.be/horaires-dienstregeling2.html?l=en&_line=1&_directioncode=V |access-date=2024-08-06 |website=www.stib-mivb.be}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{Cite web |title=Line 5 direction ERASME - stib-mivb.be |url=https://www.stib-mivb.be/horaires-dienstregeling2.html?l=en&_line=5&_directioncode=V |access-date=2024-08-06 |website=www.stib-mivb.be}}</ref><ref name=":2">{{Cite web |title=Line 2 direction SIMONIS - stib-mivb.be |url=https://www.stib-mivb.be/horaires-dienstregeling2.html?l=en&_line=2&_directioncode=V |access-date=2024-08-06 |website=www.stib-mivb.be}}</ref><ref name=":3">{{Cite web |title=Line 6 direction ROI BAUDOUIN - stib-mivb.be |url=https://www.stib-mivb.be/horaires-dienstregeling2.html?l=en&_line=6&_directioncode=V |access-date=2024-08-06 |website=www.stib-mivb.be}}</ref>
