Museum Tinguely is located on the banks of the Rhine in Basel. Opened in 1996, it was designed by Ticino architect Mario Botta and houses the world’s largest collection of works by the fascinating Swiss artist Jean Tinguely (1925–1991), a key pioneer of international post-war art.
Our permanent exhibition gives an overview of his work, covering a period of four decades – from delicate early reliefs through to the monumental machine sculptures of the 1980s. Based on Tinguely’s imaginative universe, Museum Tinguely proposes a diverse programme that always seeks topical dialogue with other artists and artforms, offering an interactive experience that appeals to all of the senses. More than 120 exhibitions (and artistic interventions) have taken place since the opening, featuring Jean Tinguely and the artists he knew, including Niki de Saint Phalle, Yves Klein and Marcel Duchamp, but also contemporary artists who address socially relevant issues of our time.
