Matto
Al mismo tiempo, se lleva adelante la reconstrucción de la escultura “El Signo” de cemento
armado en forma de u de tres metros de altura del escultor compatriota Francisco Matto
(1911-1995). Esta obra tiene su estructura afectada por el paso del tiempo y la falta de
mantenimiento desde 1982. Incluso, pocos años atrás un sujeto intentó “restaurarla”
pintando parte de la misma con pintura sintética de color azul. El propio Matto dejó en claro
que quería que esta escultura fueran pintada a la cal. “Porque es un elemento que da vida,
no es un blanco perfecto”, sostuvo en declaraciones al diario El País por aquellos años
cuando dejó en claro que no quería saber nada con la pintura sintética. “Quiero que la obra
se enriquezca con la pátina que el tiempo proporciona al blanco, y que cuando sea necesario
se le dé otra mano de cal para iniciar otra vez el proceso”, dijo Matto por aquellos años.
