Presenting “NEWS,” a new collection of paintings by Joni Mitchell

“In the current climate, I felt a need to express my concern. It is an artist’s duty to speak up.”

Painting has been a constant practice for Joni throughout her life, guided by a visual language that has always been distinctly her own. Over an iconoclastic career, she has always followed her own instincts over anyone’s expectations. “NEWS” brings this practice to the fore in a forthright response to the world as she sees it today.

Across 23 compelling new paintings, Mitchell turns her eye to our 24-hour news cycles with slogans, song lyrics, and uncompromising imagery. Her sharp wit skewers power and politics; her voice articulates protest and resistance. A powerful expression of her undimmed creative independence and vision, “NEWS” is a testament to the enduring power of art.

Every band member is a multi-instrumentalist, making their ability to cover Joni’s expansive repertoire a reality.

From the intimate acoustic moments, horn section swells, tight harmonies and orchestral arrangements, this 9 piece band can cover it all. The band’s love and admiration for Joni’s music, and for each other, will captivate and engage the audience, making this show truly something special. The featured musical guest of the evening is Sue Tierney, Ithaca native since 1986, and founder/contributor to jonimitchell.com guitar and piano transcriptions. Sue was involved with the Ithaca Community School of Music and Art’s annual Joni Mitchell Tribute concerts from 2009 to 2019. To more fully encompass Joni’s creative prowess, Terese Manfredi will be creating live art on canvas while the band performs Joni’s hits and deep cuts. More information here
