The Gottschalk Project: Four Finalists' Maquettes

In collaboration with the National Sculpture Society, Green-Wood solicited proposals for The Gottschalk Project from some of today's most accomplished figurative sculptors to create the new "Angel of Music."  The finalists selected to submit models of their designs were:  Myra C. Weisgold of University Park, Florida; Kirsten Kokkin of Loveland, Colorado; Tuck Langland of Granger, Indiana; and the team of Jill Burkee and Giancarlo Biagi of New York City.

This is a gallery of the four maquettes that were created by the chosen artists. Each one is a personal interpretation of a new "Angel of Music" for Gottschalk's monument.

The panel of judges—Arnold Lehman, Danny Simmons, S. Frederick Starr, Thayer Tolles and John Turturro—will select the finalist in 2010.
