On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek sits down with three of the people involved with creating new exhibits under the Art Design Chicago umbrella. Debra Kerr, the executive director of INTUIT: the Center For Intuitive and  Outsider Art, Lynn Warren, curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago and Cesareo Moreno, director of Visual Arts and Chief Curator at The National Museum of Mexican Art join Gary for a roundtable discussion about their respective exhibitions currently on display. The Dueling Critics, Kelly Kleiman and Jonathan Abarbanel, stop by to review Steppenwolf Theatre's new play THE ROOMMATE. A little later in the program, music critic Dennis Polkow talks to renowned conductor Marin Alsop about her connection to legendary composer Leonard Benstein. Gary reviews the new film  DON'T WORRY HE WON'T GET FAR ON FOOT. All that, plus the weekly Arts Section calendar.
