!Art is Everywhere! Welcome to my Art Blog! This year I'm teaching Art I, Art 2, Pre-AP Art 2, Sculpture 1 and Pre-AP Sculpture 2 to 9th & 10th grade high school students. There is never enough time in class to cover all of the art I want to, so this Blog can keep you in touch with the adventure I have outside of class. Check it out and follow the path...

07/08 Academic Decathlon Art Selection #18
Hey, if you want to be remembered, have yourself carved into a mountain! This "Memorial to the Confederacy" was carved into Stone Mountain in George by Gutzon Borglum in 1916. Now, that does not sound like an American name to me! Who was the artist and how did he come about getting this commission to carve this Memorial?
