Paris DIY City Walk: Tried-and-True Guide

The Stravinsky Fountain, located near the Centre Pompidou, is an interesting tribute to the works of composer Igor Stravinsky. Designed by Jean Tinguely and Niki de Saint Phalle, its 16 sculptures are colorful and kinetic, each representing a composition by Stravinsky. While creative in concept, the fountain itself feels more quirky than impressive. The blend of mechanical and playful designs adds character to the square, but it’s not the kind of attraction to go out of your way for. The fountain’s water jets and moving parts bring a sense of energy, but after a few minutes, it’s likely to feel like a quick stop rather than a highlight. If you’re already in the area—perhaps visiting the Centre Pompidou or the Church of Saint-Merri—it’s worth pausing to take a look. However, as a standalone destination, it falls short of being truly remarkable.

Right next to Le Centre Pompidou, The Stravinsky Fountain is such a special spot in the Marais! For a long time, the dynamic sculptures weren’t working and the fountain was dry, so it was an incredible surprise to see the sculptures come back to life, full of movement and creativity again. The colorful, playful designs bring such a unique energy to the square, it feels like art in motion. If you’re looking for a relaxing place in the Marais, this is perfect. You can sit on the stairs around the fountain and just enjoy the atmosphere, or head to one of the nearby bars and cafés that have a view of the fountain while enjoying food or drinks. Definitely worth a stop when exploring the Marais neighborhood. It’s a beautiful mix of art, relaxation, and Parisian vibes.

Située Rue Brisemiche, Paris ( 4e ). La fontaine Stravinsky, ou fontaine des Automates, réalisée en 1983, est l'œuvre conjointe de Jean Tinguely et Niki de Saint Phalle. C'est une commande publique entre la ville de Paris, le ministère de la Culture et le Centre Pompidou. L'œuvre est la propriété de la ville de Paris qui se charge de son entretien. Ce monument évoque l'œuvre musicale d'Igor Stravinsky. Compositeur russe du XXe siècle, celui-ci est un symbole de l'éclectisme et de l'internationalisme artistique. La fontaine Stravinsky, bâtie sur la Place Igor Stravinsky près de l'IRCAM ( centre de recherche en musique contemporaine), est composée de 16 sculptures rendant hommage aux compositions du musicien. Chacune d'entre elles fait référence à Igor Stravinsky, parfois directement comme L'Oiseau de feu, qui est une réduction du gigantesque Sun God réalisé à l'Université de Californie à San Diego par Niki de Saint Phalle, la même année. Parfois les éléments font seulement allusion à Igor Stravinsky comme La Sirène, La Vie, L'Amour, Le Serpent, La Mort. Les sculptures ont été réalisées en résine ou par assemblage d'éléments en résine et d'éléments métalliques ou assemblages d'éléments métalliques. C'est une œuvre composite conçue pour un espace public et une œuvre en mouvement. Les sculptures sont toutes mécanisées, noires ou colorées et sont animées par des jets d'eau. C'est surtout grâce au soutien de Mme Claude Pompidou que cette fontaine a pu être réalisée conjointement par les 2 artistes, le souvenir de la collaboration des 2 artistes à la fois, lors de la création de Paradis fantastique, effrayait encore les commanditaires qui redoutaient une œuvre dans le même style. La Fontaine occupe 17 m de largeur sur 33 m de longueur. Les 16 sculptures sont réparties dans le...
