Comment on Sculpture

“Zenos Frudakis comes with my highest recommendation as both an artist and a person.  He created a stunning sculpture of Dr. King that today stands on Milwaukee's Dr. Martin Luther King Drive as an exceptional reminder of Dr. King's commitment to peace and justice. Zenos honored us with his presence at the statue unveiling and provided everyone in attendance a thoughtful insight into his design inspiration.”
