Chaos I
''Chaos I'' is a kinetic artwork by Swiss artist Jean Tinguely located inside The Commons, which is downtown Columbus, Indiana, USA. The work was commissioned by J. Irwin Miller, his wife Xenia Miller, and E. Celementine Tangeman (Miller's sister) in late 1971 for The Commons, an enclosed public space designed by Cesar Pelli. The artwork is often simply called ''Chaos'' and is occasionally referred to as ''Chaos No.1''. ==Description== ''Chaos I'' stands 30 feet tall, weighs 3 tons, and originally had 12 motors that operated 13 individual functions.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kid-at-art.com/htdoc/chaos.html )〕 Tinguely designed the artwork to have a “Jekyll and Hyde” personality so visitors can experience it being peaceful, sometimes with only a few functions working and other times with all of them working and it being noisy and loud. ''Chaos I'' was fabricated from new and scrap material purchased in or from Columbus: scrap metal was acquired from Kroot Corporation, the large bearing used on the base was purchased from Southern Machine, Inc, many of the spinning metal shapes were created by Noblitt Fabricating, and the original 12 motors were provided by Daniel-Hayden Electric Co.
