Jean Tinguely Artwork Details

 

 

Detailed Description

An original artwork by renowned Swiss painter and sculptor Jean Tinguely, who is best known for his sculptural machines, or kinetic art. His sculpture takes a variety of forms, from early hanging pieces, to monumental works welded together from scrap metal, to a number of public fountains. His machines, working illogically and unpredictably, are like caricatures of the utilitarian mechanical world.
