Water Duet

In the square in front of the Tettuccio plant you will find the 'Duetto d'Acqua' fountain, a work by the Japanese artist Susumu Shingu, very well known in the Far East and also much appreciated in Europe where he collaborated with Renzo Piano. The fountain was placed in 1998 in the large central flowerbed of Piazza Domenico Giusti. The work is an engaging three-meter-high mobile steel sculpture that produces suggestive musical effects. The water descends from the top of the structure, passes from one to another of the elements that recall the shape of chalices, and gives life to both the movement of the sculpture and to the alternation of harmonious and suggestive sounds.
