The director of Tg La7 Enrico Mentana suggested to the mayor the placement of the work in the Milanese hospital
On the fourth day of controversy there is one proposalwhich was created by the director of Tg La7 and which finds the support of mayor Beppe Salato place the statue dedicated to the motherhood of the artist Vera Omodeo, passed away at almost 100 years old in 2023. The new location will be the gardens of the Mangiagalli hospital. «While I was thinking» about failure of the Commission in charge because the statue, which represents a bare-breasted woman breastfeeding a newborn, «”represents respectable values but not universally
shareable”, Enrico Mentana wrote to metrue Milanese, proposing to place it at Mangiagalliwhere he was born, like many others
Milanese”, wrote mayor Beppe Sala on Facebook on Sunday afternoon.
«It seems like a good idea, perhaps placing it in the gardens surrounding the hospital – concluded Sala -. It would be an extremely symbolic gesture,
precisely in this historical moment in which the birth rate is one of the problems
leaders of our country.” For the mayor, the new location, which will in any case have to be examined by the commission, «would also be a tribute to the sacrifices, not properly recognized, that millions of women face every day to raise us. And this is a universal value. I will ask then
to the Commission to examine my proposal.”
