Susan Stamberg and family at the Stravinsky Fountain in Paris. Josh Stamberg
A dream of a day at the Centre Pompidou in Paris. We d come out of a huge David Hockney exhibition, and my family and I were pooped. So granddaughters, their mother Myndy and I sat on a rim of the Stravinsky Fountain to rest a bit, while my son Josh took our picture.
The fountain makes me smile four years later, as it did the first time I saw it decades ago. It s a 1983 collaboration between sculptors Jean Tinguely (he did the black mechanical parts) and Niki de Saint Phalle (the puffy colorful figures something/someone in a crown, serpent, heart, lips).
