Wait, is that Bill Clinton looking like Arnie?!
Indeed. Bill as Tarzan, with Hill as Jane, is just one of the 30 Clinton “interpretations” on display at “The Bill Clinton Show,” which opens at Broadway’s Locus Media Gallery on October 16. “It showed his power and her devotion to him,” says artist Boris Vallejo, whose painting is on sale for $10,000.

Tarzan maybe. But Jesus?!
Gallerist Sam P. Israel says that the most controversial work is of Bill on a cross with Ken Starr as Pontius Pilate.

But why do a Clinton show now?
“I thought it would be an interesting way to approach the current administration,” says the gnomic Israel.
