THE LITERARY/SCENE SPACE OF LIVING PICTURES BASED ON TRADITIONAL FOLK TEMPLATES

Branka Brlenić-Vujić ; Faculty of philosophy in Osijek

Abstract

This works sheds light on popular folk traditions incorporated into the literary/scene space of living pictures. These paradigmatic pictures, frozen in the sensibilities of middle-age folk traditions, were written into collective memory though the works of Antun Gustav Matoš in Dojmovima i ogledima s pariške izložbe, from 1900 and 1902; the paintings of Bela Csikos-Sessie in the Dekorativni panneau cycle, at an exhibition in Paris in 1900; the travelogue by Nikola Andrić from 1922, titled U posjetima kod dva Isusa i jednoga sv. Petra iz Ober-Ammergaua. The author’s pilgrimage into the spiritual temples of folk art is a theatrical adaptation of the visual spectacle of middle-age visualization, in its highlighted relationship toward transcendent reality in harmony with its poetics and the time of its reception.
