ART NEWS In memory of Susanne Feld Hilberry, the pioneering art dealer who died in August, her Ferndale gallery, the Susanne Hilberry Gallery, will open an anniversary exhibition, Thirty Nine Years — the number of years she ran her gallery. Hilberry was an early champion of many internation- ally known artists, including Richard Artschwager, Elizabeth Murray, Judy Pfaff, Joel Shapiro and Alex Katz — all of whom will have work shown in the exhibit. Also included: Carrie Mae Weems, Mike Kelley, Manny Farber, Judy Linn (who took the photo shown), Nancy Mitchnick and more. Editor's Picks Nate Bloom Special to the Jewish News SANDLERMANIA Last week, we told you that Adam Sandler, 49, performed a new version of his "Chanukah Song"; now, it is out on video (on YouTube, titled "Chanukah Song, Part 4"). As usual, Sandler doesn't identify by name every Jewish celeb — so if you view the video here are the "toughies": "Olaf " refers to the character Olaf the Snowman in Frozen, voiced by actor Josh Gad, 34; "Punky Brewster" refers to actress Soleil Moon Frye, 39; Larry Page and Sergey Brin, both 42, co-founded Google; Harry Potter refer- ences Daniel Radcliffe, 26; and Idina Menzel, 44, voiced Elsa in Frozen. On Friday, Dec. 11, Netflix premieres The Ridiculous 6, a comedy that sort- of marries The Magnificent Seven (and uses its great score by the late Elmer Bernstein) to Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles. Sandler plays an outlaw ("White Knife") raised by Native Americans who goes on a mission to rescue his father. He's assisted by his five half-brothers, all of whom have the same father, but are ethnically different (black, Hispanic and others). Co-stars include Rob Schneider, 52, and Harvey Keitel, 76.
