The book presents over 100 photographs shot in Chicago between 2006 and 2011, mainly in black and white. Several aspect of this diverse city are shown. Starting from the most celebrated downtown areas, where so many movies have been shot making them familiar to the entire world, to the suburbs and outskirts of the city, each with its own personality and  charm. Page after page, empty streets mix with the most solemn of buildings and the waterfronts; people who work and live here meet other people who come from the Mid-West to check out unexpected urban landscapes. And then there are a number of photographs dedicated to the world of Blues, from the many clubs where the Blues are played and lived each night, to the Chicago Blues Festival, the great late Spring event attended by an extraordinary and multifarious public, who are as much a part of the scene as the artists on stage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A photographic portrait of Chicago: the city centre with its world-famous buildings and waterfronts, but also the outskirts of the city, the diverse people who inhabit it, and the Blues scene.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5114,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[5485],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-5113","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-photography","7":"author-by-author-luigi-bortoluzzi","8":"author-preface-by-scott-turow","9":"publisher-officina-libraria","11":"first","12":"instock","13":"shipping-taxable","14":"purchasable","15":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>This is Chicago - ACC Art Books UK<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Title: This is Chicago, Pages: 144 Pages, Publish Date: 15th Oct 2018, Author: Luigi Bortoluzzi, Preface by Scott Turow, ISBN: 9788833670034.
