Guadalajara native and photojournalist José Hernández-Claire curently showcases 50 gripping black-and-white photographs in his “Resistencia” (Resistance) exhibition at El Refugio Cultural Center in Tlaquepaque.
His work follows the trajectories of Latin American migrants on their way to the United States, documenting the good, the bad and the ugly. The exhibition is sponsored by the National Fund for Culture and the Arts (FONCA) and will be open to the public until January 31. Hernández-Claire shot to fame after his poignant images of the aftermath of the 1992 sewer line explosions in Guadalajara – in which more then 200 people died – won a slew of international awards.
