Basel EuroAirport View
EuroAirport offers a unique platform for events, receptions, cocktail parties and banquets: On the observation deck of the departure hall the “Luminator” is situated, an impressive illuminated sculpture by renowned Basel artist Jean Tinguely. The open platform around the “Luminator” is especially suited for art events and receptions. Above the bustling atmosphere of the departure hall with a panoramic view of the airfield this venue is an ideal platform for events with exceptional setting and state-of-the-art technology.
Jean Tinguely’s Luminator
On the 20th anniversary of Jean Tinguely’s death, EuroAirport has welcomed “Luminator” from the Museum Tinguely; the huge lamp sculpture has since been on display to the general public. Mounted on a plinth on the 5th floor of the Airport building in Hall 4, this great illuminated sculpture is 24 meters long and weighs nearly 5 tonnes. Created by Jean Tinguely (1925-1991), one of the most original Swiss artists of the 20th century, “Luminator” was first exhibited at the Basel Fair Hall in June 1991. It was then purchased by the Swiss Bank Association (later to become UBS).
