Lonely Planet review

The Tinguely Fountain will seem familiar to anyone who's seen the famous Stravinsky fountain outside Paris's Pompidou Centre. In Paris, however, Swiss sculptor Jean Tinguely's madcap machinery is accompanied by the plump day-glo figures of his wife and collaborator Niki de Saint Phalle. This Basel fountain is all his own doing.
