Reconstruction of the Roman Theatre in Sagunto, Spain, 1985-1993
Rome,

The maximum height of the entire complex (including the stage and the tops of the wooden roofs over the proscenium) was determined on the basis of the elevation deduced from historical documentation referred to in the completion of the structure.
The work performed by Giorgio Grassi is continuous with the restorations of the past, for the aim of the project is a ?camouflaged? form of restoration which seems to focus on the ruin itself, or rather the image of the theatre in ruin, emphasising its picturesque appearance.
