Art can make us see hidden realities, hear silenced voices, and discover forgotten narratives. It has the power to make us stop, think, and potentially change our mind. With the rise of digital technology and connectivity, access to diverse perspectives is greater than ever, turning art into an even more influential force in shaping our views of what the future can be.
The Inter-American Development Bank asked a group of local artists of Latin American and Caribbean heritage working in Washington to respond to the idea of promoting more inclusive cities. Through a collaborative process, the artists answered by creating this multidisciplinary exhibition about choices in urban development, which seeks to uncover who gets to ask questions and what sort of questions they pose. A City of Questions consists of a multitude of queries, sometimes giving voice to an underrepresented group or offering a fresh perspective into urban life.
While this exhibition showcases Washington-based artists, their ideas transcend borders. Their insights encourage us to listen more closely to the hopes and dreams of all people and to liberate our imagination and envision more equitable alternatives for our urban spaces.
This exhibition was made possible thanks to artistic research support by Washington Project for the Arts, which envisions the city as a place that welcomes, values, and respects the presence and contributions of contemporary artists.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
