Comprised of 10 different series accompanied by 9 texts, Against all that glitters gathers images by photographer Juan Baraja as an ode to architecture, a constant play with the materiality, light and volumes of structures found in remote places. This compendium is a door to observing the history, design, law and planning that taps into problematics of industry, farming, rural life, urbanization and social sustainability within a specific ecosystem. In a poetic and sculpture-like manner, Juan Baraja approaches the tensions and difficulties that arise between a timeless ideal and the effects of time.
