La Fontaine du Buisson ArdentThe Fountain of the Burning Bush |
Geneviève Böhmer
1980 |
The central sculpture, of a vertical cylindrical shape, is erected like a column in the center of a circular basin; four vertical sections, visible to the public, each represent a particular scene. The sculpture of the fountain represents a bush with abundant vegetation showing, in places, erotic scenes.

The artist was inspired by several local artists whose names are engraved on a plaque and more particularly by the artist Mireille Suzanne Francette Porte, dite Orlan (native of Saint Étienne).
