Gordon Bond All were created by sculptors who also have celebrated works in Newark, New Jersey. When people hear "Newark," they almost gardenstatelegacy.com/Monumental_Newark.html certainly don't think of a city full of monuments, memorials, and statuary by world renowned sculptors. Yet it is home to some forty-five public monuments reflecting a surprising artistic and cultural heritage—and an underappreciated resource for improving the City's image. With recent investment in Newark's revitalization, public spaces and the art within them take on an important role in creating a desirable environment. These memorials link the present City with a past when Newark was among the great American metropolises, a thriving center of commerce and culture standing its ground against the lure of Manhattan. They are a Newark’s “Wars of America” | Gordon Bond | www.GardenStateLegacy.com Issue 42 December 2018 chance for resident Newarkers to reconnect with their city's heritage anew and foster a sense of pride. After moving to Newark five years ago, I decided to undertake the creation of a new guidebook that will update and expand on that idea. Titled "Monumental Newark," the proposed work will go deeper into the fascinating back-stories of whom or what the monuments depict and how they came to be.

  • Who Was Solon Borglum? - Taken from “Solon H
    Who was Solon Borglum? - taken from “Solon H. Borglum – A Man Who Stands Alone” written by his son-in-law, A. Mervyn Davies. James M. Borglum, a woodcarver in Denmark and a Mormon immigrated to Utah in 1864 with his new bride, Ida Mikkelson, followed by Ida’s family, as they were Mormons also. The following year James also married Ida’s youngest sister Christina. She had 2 sons......John Gutzon, March 25, 1867 (the family always called him Johnnie) and a year and a half later Solon Hannibal was born December 22, 1868. After 3 years of emotional pressures between the two sisters, by mutual consent Christina left the family and rejoined to her parents later remarried. She never stayed in touch with the Borglum family so her where about is unknown . While the boy were still very young James Borglum family changed religions and moved to Fremont NE. Eventually Ida had 4 boys and 3 girls, they raised all 9 children as one family. It became apparent that Nebraska’s treeless plains needed physicians more than they needed a woodcarver. So James studied medicine until he received his M.D. degree at the Missouri Medical (homeopathic) College in St. Louis, February 19, 1874. Now Dr. James Miller Borglum hung out his first shingle in Fremont, NE. Solon was a happy boy and had a passion for the outdoor and for horses and was the only member of his family to really appreciate fully the advantages of a stable full of horses, which the country doctor maintained. Solon learned to ride before he could walk.

    Wars of America 1 Wars of America Military Park Gutzon Borglum 1926 “The Wars of America” tells a wondrous story that will prove worthy of endless repetition to old and young. — Jewish Chronicle1 May 28, 1926, Page 4 “Wars of America” was the last—and the most ambitious—of the three public monuments bequeathed to the City of Newark through funding by the will of Amos H. Van Horn (for more about Van Horn, see page XX). Though the United States had been involved in wars since its founding, the Civil War inspired a particularly strong desire for public memorialization. Yet, as of the 20th century, no such monuments were erected in Newark—something Van Horn’s bequeath was meant to rectify. His will noted how, as “funds for this purpose are not being obtained as readily as desired and as this monument has always been one of my greatest desires,” he left $100,000 for “a Soldiers and Sailors Monument…to be erected in Military Park in the City of Newark.”2 By the time the City got to this monument in 1920, a new wave of patriotic memorialization had been inspired by the sacrifices of the First World War. Sculptor Gutzon Borglum’s (see page XX) reputation had already been established in Newark by his seated 2 Military Park Abraham Lincoln, “The Indian and The Puritan,” and “First Landing Party of the Founders of Newark” (see pages XX, XX, and XX, respectively). “With that much money at my disposal,” Borglum wrote enthusiastically of Van Horn’s bequeath, “I can create a monument that will truly do honor to the brave men who have served America in times of war.”3 His first thoughts for the Newark monument were something in a more typically classical style—a pillar surrounded by military figures from the various wars to date, shown in appropriate action.
