Peter Bialobrzeski's "The Raw and the Cooked" (2011)

Check out this body of work here: http://www.m97gallery.com/artist/?artist=peter_bialobrzeski&series=1360121209

Quote from site:
“'The Raw and the Cooked'(2011) is Bialobrzeski’s most recent body of work and continues on the footsteps of his interest in Asian cities and their vertiginous growth. With photographs taken in fourteen countries across Asia, this newest work is a conti-nuation of his study of urbanization and globalization trends in different countries around the world. Enigmatic photographs of glowing cityscapes present an ubiquitous contrast of humble old structures standing besides the shiny high
-rises that will ultimately replace them in a frenzied rhythm of accelerated growth. With his characteristic combination of photo-journalism and artistic mastery, Bialobrzeski draws attention to the often wasteful nature of urban development and its persis-tent aim to destroy the old to give way to the new."
