A public sculpture given to Milan by the artist Alberto Burri, then demolished by the city administration, will be rebuilt next year in honor of the centenary of his birth.

"Teatro Continuo" (Continuous Theatre), a cement stage surmounted by six rotating steel “wings”, was installed in Sempione Park after being presented for the 1973 Milan Triennale, but the city dismantled the work in 1989, citing its poor condition.
