To reflect the political nature of their performances, THE NEWS IN REVUE, the Emmy Award-winning musical political satire troupe, is currently showing selected works of Connecticut- based artists Bernard Re, Jr. and Adam Polsz, in their new venue.
(On our sister-site, NewBerkshire.com:Review of The News in Revue..)
In late June, five paintings were mounted at The Mountainside Playhouse in a ten-week exhibition. The works are political in nature executed in high-gloss enamel and acrylic paint.
Bernard Re, Jr.’s works include two abstract portraits, one melding Barack Obama and Oprah entitled ‘Obama-O-Free’ and ‘Hill-Bill-ery,’ which combines the many faces of Hillary and Bill Clinton. Adam Polsz’s graffiti-like work includes the ‘GOP, Grand Oil Profiteers,’ ‘Chinese Democracy’ and ‘Weapons of Mass Instruction.’
In a region that appreciates good political humor, Re and Polsz’s art offers the perfect complement to a live performance experience. “We’re excited to feature the works of Bernie and Adam,” said Nancy Holson, creator/writer of THE NEWS IN REVUE. “Our show focuses on the politics of our nation and it’s great to have another political art form occupying the same space and adding deep-seated ambience to The Mountainside Playhouse this summer,” she added.
