Sacred Modernity versammelt Kirchenbauten der europäischen Nachkriegsmoderne. Angespornt durch die Reformimpulse des Zweiten Vatikanischen Konzils in den frühen 1960er-Jahren, war dies eine Zeit der Suche nach einer architektonischen Formensprache, die zum Ausdruck bringen sollte, dass die katholische Kirche sich als Teil der Moderne verstand. Das Ergebnis ist ein spannungsvoller Antagonismus zwischen kühlem Minimalismus und neuen Grundrissen, die die Gemeinde selbst in den Mittelpunkt rückten. Kühn, unerhört und provokativ für ihre Zeit, löst diese Ästhetik zwischen Brutalismus und strukturellem Expressionismus noch heute heftige Debatten zwischen Modernisten und Traditionalisten aus.
Ein halbes Jahrhundert später zeigt Jamie McGregor Smiths fotografische Studie, dass diese Zukunftsvisionen aus der Vergangenheit bis heute nichts von ihrer visionären Kraft verloren haben und mit ihren futuristisch, ungewohnten Formen nach wie vor zu den einzigartigsten architektonischen Skulpturen im öffentlichen Raum gehören.

JAMIE McGREGOR SMITH (*1982, Weymouth, UK) studierte Fotografie an der Staffordshire University und begann sein dokumentarisches Arbeiten inspiriert von der amerikanischen New-Topographic-Bewegung mit Reportagen über die stillgelegte Töpferindustrie in den britischen Midlands, den Zusammenbruch der Automobilindustrie in Detroit oder die verlassenen Olympiastadien in Athen. Seine Fotos wurden ua. in der New York Times, The Guardian, Financial Times, Wallpaper*, Architectural Digest und Vanity Fair veröffentlicht.

Defective Item
Color: Black, Color: Black
The door broke off immediately out of the package and the screws are stripped so they can’t be tightened into place. I might superglue it because I don’t want to go through the hassle of returning it and it’s the only way they’d offer even a partial refund for a defective product when I asked.

Effective & Attractive with Wireless Charging
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
This "valet" organizer, which is the first time I've heard that term for a product like this, is nearly perfect. For me, it checks all of the boxes and in a perfect world, I would have opted for a smaller piece with only three compartments for mobile, wallet, and keys. It's well made and quite attractive, especially the blue (favorite color, so I'm biased). The only feature I'm not a fan of is how the removeable, wireless charging pad was implemented, which sits up on a small lip at a slight incline. However, I'm not complaining one bit as the wireless charging is great, and it's a differentiator that determines the value of the piece. I would have preferred the pad be built into the piece, however the angle of it does make it easy to grab opposed to using your finger(s) to pry it up.

Power Adapter Not Included
Color: Brown +Wireless
I'm initially impressed with this valet tray. I purchased two for my husband: one for his nightstand and one for his dresser, as he likes to keep things organized. We liked the idea of the wireless charging capabilities, but were a little disappointed to discover that the power adapter (wall plug) is not included with the tray. The tray includes a charging pad and a cord, but no wall plug. We don't have an extra pair in the house, so we'll have to wait until a pack arrives before we can test out the charging capabilities. That aside, the trays are a handsome set. I think 20% larger might serve us a tad better, but this will do very nicely for now. We're able to fit almost everything we need in the tray and that will leave the tables looking much tidier, even if one or two items don't quite make it in.
