In the context of this artwork, explain the Completion of the Construction.
Prior to his death, Jiménez had declared the painting of the head complete. After his death, friends and family contemplated whether to leave the sculpture incomplete, to destroy it, or to complete it. To honor his legacy, though perhaps also to avoid having to pay the City of Denver for failure to deliver on a contract, they elected to complete the sculpture, which was completed with the help of the artist's staff, family, and professional lowrider/racecar painters Camillo Nuñez and Richard LaVato. Upon completion, the sculpture was sent to California for assembly and then shipped to Denver. Blue Mustang was unveiled at Denver International Airport on February 11, 2008.
