In 1972, Kunsthalle Basel opened the first overview in Switzerland of the work of Jean
Tinguely, Swiss enfant terrible of machine art. Basel’s National-Zeitung reported: “The red carpet treatment at the Kunsthalle for Jean Tinguely, the ‘kinetic sculptor,’ whom his passport identifies as a Basler, but who has found an opportunity for great work throughout the world—first television and radio, and an unusually large horde of journalists … culminated in the actual opening late Saturday afternoon in front of an audience that marched in in such numbers as have barely ever been seen at the Kunsthalle.”
