Fontaine Igor Stravinsky #2

The Igor Stravinsky Fountain next to the Centre Pompidou, ornamented with 16 mechanical sculptures inspired by Igor Stravinsky´s compositions, was inaugurated in June 1983. The scultpures are works by Jean Tinguely and Niki de Saint Phalle. I´m working in a museum where the oeuvre of both artists has already been on display, so this fountain has a special meaning to me.
