abstract
The perception of the Stations of the Cross is constantly oscillating between visual perception and the acceptance of a verbal description. In the beginning, people taking part in historical events (Jesus Christ went to the execution with the cross in the streets of Jerusalem) perceived and experienced what others later tied to words. (Leaving aside the oral history, the first biblical text appeared in the 1st century, and the text tradition of records of the Stations of the Cross’s piety dates back to 1471.) An effort to convey the described historical event through the senses meant adding an image to the text (for the first time in 1423 or 1425). The long period of coexistence of the verbal description and the corresponding visual concepts was gradually disrupted by artists during the 20th century until its last decades in which the artists almost achieved independence of an image from the traditional theme. They did it through an emphasis on expressing inner reality and overcoming the subject reality. They created a new system of symbols suppressing the traditional Stations of the Cross’s image. This artistic concept sees a creative role in the hands of the subject, both the author of the work and his observer. As an accompaniment to this new image, another verbal description appears interpreting blank spaces between the work and the recipient. This transformation will be interpreted on the several artworks.
