This New York artist, Ben Grasso, takes images of destruction and sets them against bright rural backgrounds reminicent of American Realism.  The bright blues and greens successfully calm the viewer enough to see the beauty of destruction. Well done indeed. You can check out some more of his work here: http://bengrasso.com/
