Tinguely Fountain (Basel Switzerland)

A very short video about the Tinguely Fountain from our trip in Basel Switzerland last June 2007...

The Tinguely Fountain
In the place where the stage of the old Town Theatre formerly stood, in 1977 Jean Tinguely placed amusing machine sculptures in an enormous pool of water.
They now create action in place of the actors, singers and dancers. With this fountain the artist,
whose work enjoys great popularity in Basel, endowed the town with a new symbol of its identity.
