BORGLUM, GUTZON (1871— ), American sculptor, was born in Idaho on March 25, 1871. He was educated at St. Mary's college (Kan.), studied art at the school of the San Fran cisco Art Association, and during 189o-93 attended the Academie Julien and the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He then returned to America, but in 1896 went to London, and exhibited sculpture and painting there and in Paris. In i9o2 he moved his studio to New York. He was a disciple of Rodin. The huge scale of many of his conceptions can be compared only with that of antique oriental monuments. For example, he proposed a Confederate memorial on Stone mountain near Atlanta (Ga.), to be cut in relief along the face of that granite mountain as a frieze repre senting an army on the march, conspicuous from a great distance. The Stone Mountain Confederate Monumental Association was formed in order to carry out the suggestion and Borglum prepared a design. The work, however, was interrupted owing to difficulties arising between him and the association. A new design by Au gustus Lukeman was adopted on Aug. 27, 1925, in place of that of Borglum. In 1919 he exhibited a head of Lincoln cut from a block weighing six tons. The same year he was chosen to design a monument for Warsaw, commemorating the rebirth of Poland. Among his colossal figures are the Twelve Apostles for the cathe dral of St. John the Divine, in New York, and another head of Lincoln in the rotunda of the Capitol at Washington. Other works include the Sheridan monument in Washington; "Mares of Diomedes" and "Ruskin" in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; a statue of Lincoln, Newark (N.J.) ; and a statue of Henry Ward Beecher at Brooklyn. In 1926 he accepted a corn mission to carve the statue of Alexander Stephens for the Georgia section of the National Hall of Fame. In 1927 he was engaged in carving in the stone of Mt. Rushmore, Black Hills of South Da kota, gigantic figures as a memorial to Presidents Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt ; this memorial was dedicated by President Coolidge Aug. Io, 1927.
