Open Book Fountain

This sculpture was created by Kelecsenyi Gergely and engineer Jozsef Szita.
The fountain uses water to create the illusion of turning pages, and serves as a reminder of the importance of physical books.

You can find it at Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest. On Egyetem Square, in front of the university.

@gbrugman There's a copy in Gülhane Park, Istanbul. I was confused to begin with, as I've seen it in person but I've never been to Hungary.
