Oscar Rialubin Wins CBRE Urban Photographer of the Year Title with ‘Xyclops’

October 16, 2015, Shanghai – Oscar Rialubin from the Philippines has been named as the winner of the CBRE Urban Photographer of the Year competition. Mr Rialubin’s image, ‘Xyclops’, shows a watch repairman at work in Doha, Qatar. With more than 21,000 entries from 113 countries, this year was the competition’s largest.

The annual competition, which offers unprecedented insight into urban life, is run by CBRE, the world’s leading commercial real estate services and investment firm. Amateur and professional photographers are challenged to capture the essence of the urban environment through the brief of ‘Cities at Work’. This year, entrants provided a unique insight in to urban life through a range of images including window cleaners scaling great heights, crammed commuters at Japan’s busiest station and a vibrant New York intersection taken from a Manhattan skyscraper.   

The top prize is a luxury trip to a destination of the winner’s choice. Regional prizes are also awarded. The Asia Pacific prize went to Peter Graney for his ‘Poultry Prepared for Market’, a striking image of food being prepared for market in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) prize was awarded to Armen Dolukhanyan for his ‘Couple Policemen’ depicting a young couple, both in the police force, taking a break in Ukraine.  Christopher Martin was the winner of the Americas prize for the image ‘Winter Work’ of a plane being de-iced at Calgary International Airport, Canada.

For the first time, the 2015 competition included a mobile category. Technology’s continual advancement has meant that photographs taken on a mobile device, particularly those snapped in the moment, are as serious contenders as the ones taken by more traditional means. The winner, Cocu Liu from China, captured a fantastic image of the Chicago Board of Trading Building in Blizzard Days.

Martin Samworth, Chief Executive Officer, EMEA, CBRE, said, “The competition constantly provides us with new perspectives on working environments within cities. This year was no exception and Rialubin’s intimate portrait of a watch repairman gives insight into a universal trade. Urban life is constantly changing and the beauty of the competition is that it has captured this every year through the winning images. This year’s competition is our largest most successful to date, however we have never lost focus on capturing the intricacies of everyday life that makes the competition special.”   

Paul Suchman, Global Chief Marketing Officer, CBRE, added, “the competition continues to serve as a source of inspiration and creativity across all the communities we serve. Its reach and ability to build connectivity with the CBRE brand is simply fantastic. Our 2015 brief, ‘Cities at Work’, is a simple idea that invites participants to capture the energy and momentum of their community. As evidenced by the scale and diversity of the submissions we received, and by powerful work of Mr Rialubin, this rally cry resonated across all markets.”

Overall Winner: Xyclops by Oscar Rialubin
