We also went to Museum Tinguely in Basel. There are dozens of mechanical sculptures by Tinguely that operate at the push of a button, with pieces of metal squeaking, rattling, groaning, crashing, thumping, rotating, flopping and whirring. It's a noisy and lively museum and a great delight for visitors of all ages. There were lots of families there the day we went. It's a cryptic, tragic, scary, funny, entertaining and thought-provoking exhibition in an interesting building by the architect Mario Botta.
Methinks there is hope yet for all of Phil's old collectibles of agricultural equipment in the laneway at the farm (not forgetting the HQ Holden in the backyard at Geelong!!)
ReplyDeleteHopefully your trip back at the end of the week wont have similar sounds (metal squeaking, rattling, groaning, crashing, thumping, rotating, flopping and whirring) on the Korean Airlines plane.
Lorraine, looking forward to your soft focus, moody photos as the inclement weather continues.
Black Sheep from you know where!
Lorraine, I found the sculptures very interesting and thought provoking.
ReplyDeleteWhen you get back, I must ask Phil how those two roof tilers didn't go through the slate roof, which was shown in one of your much earlier photos.
Cheers Kamil
