Controversial Walker Art Center Sculpture Will Be Dismantled And Burned

VISUAL Posted: June 1, 2017 5:47 am

Sam Durant’s piece Scaffold, based partly on the gallows at which 38 Dakota men were hanged in 1862, was greeted with outrage by Native Americans when it appeared in the Walker’s about-to-reopen sculpture garden. It will now be taken apart and burned in a ceremony overseen by Dakota elders.
