Arthur Mettetal is a railway historian and specialist in railway and industrial heritage. For many years, he has been interested in the tangible and intangible traces of industry, using the photographic medium in each of his projects. He also specialises in managing company archives and collections. After working on the working-class memory of the Métaleurop factory in 2011, he is now looking at the place of factory chimneys as “social and working-class verticalities” in the Nord region. Co-curator of a number of exhibitions (Usine des mémoires, Signal industriel, Orient-Express & Cie), he is currently Executive Director of the Endowment Fund Orient Express.
