Reb: Am I just a dim-wit, or is that sculpture new?

So how would you fill in the blank spot in this dialogue? Probably depends on your reading of the wattage on my dome.
With an eye toward more educational pursuits, I search the net. Romance languages return us to where the colloquio started:
a) talk; b) meeting; c) conference; d) interview; e) dialogue; f) discourse; g) consultation; h) deliberations; i) colloquy
The “Spoleto” to “Spoletino” construct is familiar enough as well. The location of “Sculptures in the City” (from 1962), we are learning, is not.
We know these figures by Pietro Consagra from the town museum (memory gets a jog), yet they were originally on top of the steps we just talked our way down.
