A City of Questions

The exhibition gathers a group of local artists of Latin American and the Caribbean heritage working in Washington to respond to the idea of promoting more inclusive cities. The result shows a collaborative process where these artists pose questions related to urban development, which are then responded to through their installations, photography, street art, muralism, and soundscapes. This exhibition represents a multitude of questions giving voice to underrepresented groups and offering a fresh perspective on urban life. This is the first time that the IDB Cultural Center invites Washington-based artists to share their insights about more equitable approaches to urban development.

“A City of Questions offers a fresh perspective from our city. Washington, D.C. is very diverse metropolis where people from all over the world come to work on development and public policy, which is at the heart of our mission. We want to start this conversation about inclusive urban spaces and how it connects with the same challenges that we are facing in Latin America and the Caribbean”, said Trinidad Zaldívar, Unit Chief of Creativity and Culture at the IDB.
