Life-sized bronze sculptures installed on the street corners of the Historical Downtown District of Rapid City, South Dakota. 2005 marks the 6th year of a 10 year project depicting all of the presidents of the United States. We are working in conjunction with the Foundation, the Rapid City Arts Council, and the Rapid City Council. We have installed four of a total of ten presidents assigned to us. Three other artists are involved in the project. We have sculpted exact replicas of George Washington, 2000; James Madison, 2001 (a second copy has been installed at James Madison University in Virginia); James Monroe, 2002; Dwight D. Eisenhower, 2003; John Tyler, 2004; James Polk, 2005; and Zachary Taylor, 2006. The design and critique of each of the presidents are in collaboration with the members of the foundation, and the other artists. One president a year will be installed by each artist until the 2.5 million dollar project is completed in 2010.
