ED HERLIHY VO: Meet Jean Tinguely , who may be an artist or an inventor or a philosopher, depending on how you look at his masterpieces. They are sort of abstract industrialism. Weird and wonderful machines that work superbly but sort of absolutely no useful purpose. Their only function is to have no function.

Jean Tinguely (22 May 1925 30 August 1991) was a Swiss painter and sculptor. He is best known for his sculptural machines or kinetic art, in the Dada tradition; known officially as metamechanics. Tinguely's art satirized the mindless overproduction of material goods in advanced industrial society. He belonged to the Parisian avant garde in the mid-twentieth century and was one of the artists who signed the New Realist's manifesto (Nouveau réalisme) in 1960. Distributed by Tubemogul.
