![Tourists at the Crazy Horse memorial. ..The mountain carving was begun in 1948 by sculptor Korczak Ziolkowski, who had worked on Mt. Rushmore under Gutzon Borglum. In 1939, Ziolkowski had received a letter from Chief Henry Standing Bear, which stated in part "My fellow chiefs and I would like the white man to know that the red man has great heroes, too". ..As a non-profit undertaking, the memorial receives no federal or state funding. Ziolkowski was offered $10 million from the federal government on two occasions, but he turned the offers down. Ziolkowski felt the project was more than just a mountain carving, and he feared that his plans for the broader educational as well as cultural goals for the memorial would be left behind with federal involvement.[2]..Ziolkowski died in 1982. The entire complex is owned by the Crazy Horse Memorial Foundation. Ziolkowski's wife Ruth and several children remain closely involved with the work, which has no fixed completion date.[1] The face of Crazy Horse was completed and dedicated in 1998...(Wikipedia)](https://m.psecn.photoshelter.com/img-get2/I0000ANAEtEVr1Rs/fit=180x180/fill=/g=G0000fILBxSFbBVE/I0000ANAEtEVr1Rs.jpg)
