Killer Demon Denver Bronco
(Reader Contribution to 12 Craziest Sculptures)
Nicknamed “Blucifer” and “DIAblo,” The Mustang is a 32-foot-tall, neon blue, eyes glowing red sculpture of a raging steed that is currently located on a hill south of the airport along Pena Boulevard. Created by New Mexican artist Luis Jiminez. It's the first thing travelers see after the many miles of near empty prairie driving out to the airport, and the last thing new arrivals will witness before heading to the city.
June 13, 2006. Jiminez was by himself in his studio rushing to finish the nearly-completed Mustang. He was reportedly using a rope to hoist a section of the sculpture into place so it could be welded. The hoist broke and the piece fell on the 66-year-old, pinning him to the ground and slicing an artery in his leg. Jiminez died on his studio floor.
