Summary:
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
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.
After 40 years, we perform an autopsy on 'Green Lightning' through interviews, court documents, and press clippings, to find the real story.
