In his images of Bombay/Mumbai, Peter Bialobrzeski condenses the intense impressions of a city caught between local traditions and cultures and the uninhibited forces of globalization and neoliberalism.

The exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue with photographs by Peter Bialobrzeski and an essay by Ranjit Hoskote (English/German).

"The rhythm of Bialobrzeski’s photographs oscillates between the emphatic vertical momentum of towers that vacuum-seal their residents into a guarded sanctuary, and the flattening and erasure of the horizontal settlement. In Bialobrzeski’s Bombay/Mumbai, the cityscape is dominated by the brash challenges it offers the sky (…) The photographer returns, constantly, to the depiction of a particular paradox that defines Bombay/Mumbai: the claustrophobic panorama." (Ranjit Hoskote in his essay)
