While moving his mother into a Manhattan brownstone, Houston artist Jim Greene happened upon a stack of 200 prints of Picasso's 1961 masterpiece Danse de la Paix. Somehow resisting the impetus to draw Sharpie mustaches on the frolicking figures, he turned the prints over to Buffalo Bayou Art Park so other artists might draw on them for the BBAP Danse de la Paix Party and Fundraiser instead. The interpretations of Danse, ranging from a superhero dog sculpture to petri dishes of dissolved color, are designed to stun and wow you into plunking down your cash in the silent auction for the pieces — in support of BBAP, of course.
