How the Artigas statue came to be in Minnesota

This message just in from Willy Lockhart, past president of Uruguay-Minnesota Partners...

Today I received from a friend that participated in a Branding of Museums Seminar organized by our Chapter, Ana Ines Maiorano, this link for an article that I consider is part of The History of Partners, especially of our Minnesota - Uruguay Partnership.
 
The article tells the history of how the Artigas statue that is in Montevideo, Minnesota arrived there.
 
Best regards, Willy
