Crazy Horse Memorial, South Dakota Summer 2015

Crazy Horse Memorial, South Dakota: As part of our American road trip this summer, we visited South Dakota.

Staying with the theme of the past, Lisa and the team made a stop at the Crazy Horse memorial in Western South Dakota. The memorial to this important Lakota leader was carved by Korczak Ziolowski into the granite Black Hills mountain range as part of a 100-year project. The impressive head sits 219 feet high and watches out over the valley with its multitude of stories from past times.

This video is one of 14 from my summer American Road trip: See them all:

Crazy Horse Memorial/Monument/Mountain/Sculpture/Statue

crazyhorse The Crazy Horse Memorial is a mountain monument under construction on privately held land in the Black Hills, in Custer County, South Dakota, United States. It will depict the Oglala Lakota warrior, Crazy Horse, riding a horse and pointing into the distance. The memorial was commissioned by Henry Standing Bear, a Lakota elder, to be sculpted by Korczak Ziolkowski. It is operated by the Crazy Horse Memorial Foundation, a nonprofit organization.

The memorial master plan includes the mountain carving monument, an Indian Museum of North America, and a Native American Cultural Center. The monument is being carved out of Thunderhead Mountain, on land considered sacred by some Oglala Lakota, between Custer and Hill City, roughly 17 miles (27 km) from Mount Rushmore. The sculpture's final dimensions are planned to be 641 feet (195 m) long and 563 feet (172 m) high. The arm of Crazy Horse will be 263 feet (80 m) long and the head 87 feet (27 m) high; by comparison, the heads of the four U.S. Presidents at Mount Rushmore are each 60 feet (18 m) high.

The monument has been in progress since 1948 and is far from completion.[1][2] If completed as designed, it would become the world's second tallest statue, after the Statue of Unity.

Crazy Horse Memorial.South Dakota October 20, 2011

My trip to South Dakota-part 2- Crazy Horse Memorial.Koczak's Remembrance Day.

Born in Boston of Polish descent, Korczak was orphaned at age one. He grew up in a series of foster homes. As a boy he was badly mistreated, but he learned to work very hard. He also gained heavy construction and other skills helping his foster father.

On his own at 16, Korczak took odd jobs to put himself through Rindge Technical School in Cambridge, MA, after which he became an apprentice patternmaker in the shipyards on the rough Boston waterfront.

He experimented with woodworking, making beautiful furniture. At age 18, he handcrafted a grandfather's clock from 55 pieces of Santa Domingo mahogany. Although he never took a lesson in art or sculpture, he studied the masters and began creating plaster and clay studies. In 1932 he used a coal chisel to carve his first portrait, a marble tribute to Judge Frederick Pickering Cabot, the famous Boston juvenile judge who had befriended and encouraged the gifted boy and introduced him to the world of fine arts.

Moving to West Hartford, Conn., Korczak launched a successful studio career doing commissioned sculpture throughout New England, Boston and New York. His Carrara marble portrait, PADEREWSKI, Study of an Immortal, won first prize by popular vote at the 1939 New York World's Fair.

A childhood dream came true when he was asked to assist Gutzon Borglum at Mount Rushmore during the summer of 1939. Media reports about Korczak's World's Fair prize and work at Rushmore prompted hereditary Lakota Chief Henry Standing Bear to start writing to the sculptor, appealing to him to create a memorial to American Indians. The two eventually met and even toured potential carving sites.

Back in Connecticut, Korczak spent two years carving his 13 1/2-foot Noah Webster Statue as a gift to West Hartford. The work drew national attention but embroiled the community and the sculptor in controversy, foreshadowing what was to come at Crazy Horse. At age 34, he volunteered for service in World War II. He landed on Omaha Beach and, later, was wounded.

At war's end he was invited to make government war memorials in Europe. But he had decided to accept the invitation of Chief Standing Bear and other project supporters and to dedicate the rest of his life to Crazy Horse Memorial.

Korczak arrived in the Black Hills on May 3, 1947. He worked on the project until his death on October 20, 1982, at age 74. During his nearly 36 years of working on the mountain, he refused to take any salary at Crazy Horse Memorial.

He is buried in the tomb that he and his sons blasted from a rock outcropping near where the permanent Indian museum will rise at the foot of the mountain carving. For the tomb door he wrote his own epitaph and cut it from three-quarter-inch steel plate. It reads:

KORCZAK Storyteller in Stone
May His Remains Be Left Unknown

Without Korczak there would be no Crazy Horse Memorial. Its history revolves around his own extraordinary story, which is reflected in his log studio-home, workshop and sculptural galleries at Crazy Horse. His life and work are an inspiration to many, especially to young people.
After his death the memorial continued to be built,overseen by Ziolkowski's wife,Ruth and seven of their 10 children.

It might be the largest sculpture in the world measuring when completed at 641feet (192m) wide and 563 feet (169m)high. The head of Crazy Horse is 87 feet(26m) high. In comparison, the faces of the US president carved in Mt. Rushmore are 60 feet (18m)high. Ziolkowski with approval from Chief Standing Bear and other Native Americans envisioned not only a monument to Native Americans, but also an educational and cultural center that currently includes the Indian Museum of North America, the Native American Cultural Center as well as workshops for Native American. Ziolkowski and his relatives have refused government funding for the non-profit project and instead rely on donations and admissions to the memorial for funding to complete the Crazy Horse Memorial.

Crazy Horse Memorial Honors Native Americans--And Freedom!

In this exclusive interview with The New American magazine, the co-CEOs of the Crazy Horse Memorial in the Black Hills of South Dakota explain the history of the largest stone mountain carving in the world. Monique and Jadwiga Ziolkowski, two daughters of the man who began the carving back in the late 1940s, are among the many family members involved in continuing this historic effort. Best of all for taxpayers, the work is financed by private donations and receives NO tax money--just as the founders of the monument intended. Watch and learn about this amazing American creation.

Crazy Horse (PART2) South Dakota

Our visit to the Crazy Horse Memorial in the Black Hills of South Dakota. A Lakota Native American Indian shares the culture, history, and traditions of his ancestors.


-Dr. Ming Woo

One family's quest for a Native American tribute

A towering monument to one of the most revered figures in Native American history is slowly taking shape in South Dakota. Crazy Horse was among the leaders of the Lakota Sioux, who attacked and destroyed a U.S. Army regiment in 1876 -- a two-day battle that went down in history as Custer's Last Stand. The sculpture's creation began in 1947, and is likely to take more than a century to cmplete. Mark Albert traveled to Crazy Horse, South Dakota, to show us why.
