EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the striking exterior of the Herbert Art Gallery and Museum in Coventry, West Midlands. From a south-facing perspective, we are presented with an intriguing view of corten steel panels that mark the boundaries of buildings that once stood in Bayley Lane from the 1300s until their unfortunate destruction during World War II in 1940. The artist, Steven Baker, skillfully highlights the historical significance of this architectural masterpiece. Each panel is meticulously cut to reveal names of inhabitants who lived within these buildings throughout different periods in history. This artistic detail serves as a poignant reminder of the lives and stories that were intertwined with these structures over centuries. The photograph's composition draws attention to both the resilience and fragility inherent in post-war Coventry architecture. The juxtaposition between modern materials like corten steel and traditional brickwork evokes a sense of continuity amidst transformation. Through his lens, Baker invites us to reflect on how our built environment shapes our collective memory. The Herbert Art Gallery and Museum stands not only as a testament to Coventry's rich heritage but also as a symbol of hope for future generations. In this image, we witness artistry intersecting with history - an invitation to explore narratives etched into every corner of this remarkable cityscape.
