Sculptor John Lopez is a product of a place. His people’s ranches are
scattered along the Grand River in northwestern South Dakota—not far
from where Sitting Bull was born and died. Not far from where thousands
of buffalo were killed during the westward expansion of settlers and
gold miners. In the bone yards of
Tyrannosaurus rex and grizzly
bears. Since farmers and ranchers populated this chunk of reservation
land, real cowboys have been roping and branding and sheering and haying
and harvesting.
