Are we allowed to scrutinize public art, even if the public doesn't pay for it? It only took the city of Buffalo 15 minutes to shut it off and five days for Mayor Jimmy Griffin to tear down Billie Lawless' sculpture "Green Lightning" in 1984. It may have had something to do with dancing neon figures that resembled Mr. Peanut. But, to this day it's unclear if the artist tricked the city or the city acted hastily. The story of "Green Lightning" is a cautionary tale about the importance of public art education. If the public is not aware of the different meanings and interpretations of art, they are more likely to react to it in a negative way. It is important for people to understand that art is subjective, and that what one person finds offensive, another person may find beautiful. Through exhaustive recreation, the story of "Green Lightning" and artist Billie Lawless is carefully assembled. It is up to the reader to decide who bamboozled who.
