This exhibition by photographer Raúl Urbina explores a hidden Chicago, moving beyond its iconic architecture to reveal unexplored corners and ordinary citizens. The collection of everyday snapshots captures the dynamic and less-known facets of urban life in this major metropolis.
Held in the Sala Fragua de Tabacalera in Madrid from June to August 2013, 'Chicago: impediré que el viento salga' (Chicago: I will prevent the wind from escaping) is an exhibition by photographer Raúl Urbina. The exhibition aims to present a Chicago that diverges from traditional perceptions of the great metropolis. It focuses on unexplored corners, common characters, peripheral landscapes, and magical daydreams, captured through everyday snapshots. Urbina reveals the lesser-known facet of Chicago, emphasizing the immensely dynamic aspect of urban evolution. The exhibition's protagonists are not influential figures or iconic architecture, but rather ordinary citizens from diverse backgrounds and social strata, along with the spaces and places that contribute to encoding the city's hidden vision – its 'B-side' – showcasing the heterogeneous character of this vast urban entity.
