Default Crazy Horse Memorial

For those interested in native american Art or Stone sculpture....
For those interested in the Crazy Horse Memorial, in South Dakota, visit
and join the discussion group:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CrazyHorseMemorial/

A 600 foot tall mountain is being carved in-the-round into the likeness
of Sioux Cheif Crazy Horse in South Dakota. It's been in progress since
1948 and is the world's largest sculpture. The face alone, which has
been completed in 1998 is already the world's largest sculpted portrait.
They have been working on blocking out the horse's head since then and
it is half blocked out.

This Memorial, which contains one of the foremost museums of Native
American history, truly captures the imagination though there is a lot
of controversy surrounding it.

I have posted several articles on the memorial's creation, engineering
logistics, history and opinion at this discussion group. Anything is
open for discussion. Come by and read the archives or post your
questions or opinions! Whether you are a fan, supporter or detractor,
add your point of view to this group or just read as informative
messages are periodically sent out.

This is a fan-run group and is in no way associated with the memorial.
The memorial's website is: www.crazyhorse.org.
