Description

About this Item:


KAEMMERER began painting Danse de Paix without knowing where the piece was going.  When he completed the work, he named it "Danse de Paix" ("Peacedance").  Just as he was finishing the painting, a friend sent KAEMMERER the video of "Stand By Me" performed by Playing For Change, and he was so moved by the parallels between the painting's imagery and meaning with the mission of the Playing For Change, he felt compelled him to donate the piece to the Foundation.
