James Kalm snags Thornton Willis for a peripatetic interview and tour of his current exhibition “Step Up”.  As an influential player in the New York painting scene, Willis has witnessed the evolving struggles facing painting, not only as a practice but as a political statement. Viewers can join your correspondent and listen in as we discuss the beginnings of SoHo, Review Magazine, and how being included in Barbara Rose’s “American Painting the 80s” might have changed Thornton’s career arc.  This program was recorded April 9, 2016.
