On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek talks to best-selling author Candace Bushnell about her new book, IS THERE STILL SEX IN THE CITY? The New York City writer behind Carrie Bradshaw wanted to look at the lives of a slightly older group of characters. Later in the program, Gary sits down with percussionist Thurman Baker. The Chicago native was back in his hometown for a performance of new suite titled SOUTHSIDE SUITE that pays tribute to his old stomping grounds. Also a look back at a story on the Museum of Contemporary Art’s Virgil Abloh exhibition, which was just extended. And the Dueling Critics, Kerry Reid and Jonathan Abarbanel, stop by to offer their picks for the fall theater season.
