Following his highly-regarded work on the life of Chinese itinerant labourers (From Somewhere to Nowhere – China's Internal Migrants, 2008), the Tokyo-based Swiss photographer Andreas Seibert addressed a new politically-charged theme.

The project "The Colors of Growth-China's Huai River" highlights everyday reality and the challenges being faced in China today. The main focus is the 1,078 kilometer long river Huai which Seibert travelled from source to estuary.

For the first time, the Swiss Foundation of Photography is presenting the quintessence of that complex photographic work in the exhibition "Andreas Seibert. The Colors of Growth-China's Huai River" ("Andreas Seibert. Huai He – Alles im Fluss"), curated by Peter Pfrunder. From 27 October 2012 to 17 February 2013.
