Hi.

On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek talks to the Museum of Contemporary Art’s lead curator about a new exhibit that explores the evolution of contemporary paintings. The Dueling Critics, Kelly Kleiman and Jonathan Abarbanel, join Gary to review a new one-man show that parodies Die Hard as a poem. Later in the show, Gary looks back at the 90 year history of the Chicago Thanksgiving Parade. And we’ll catch up with the author of a book that looks back at the origins of the holiday we now know as Thanksgiving.
