More than two hundred monumental, carved stone crosses survive from medieval Ireland. Art historians have cast them either as romantic survivals from an exotic, pagan past or as scientific specimens requiring classification and categorization by an objective, detached observer. Shifting to focus on the whole iconographic program and drawing from phenomenological methodologies resituate the tenth-century cross of the scriptures at Clonmacnoise within a living, dynamic world, demonstrating how changing perspectives, audiences, times of day, seasons, weathers, viewing pathways, and proximity to the beholder elicit a series of encounters with a polymorphic, performative object.

在有眼的眼睛和生活的世界之间：克隆马努瓦斯的圣经十字架

有200多个巨大的雕刻石十字架从中世纪的爱尔兰幸存下来。艺术史学家将其视为异国异教徒过去的浪漫遗存，或要求客观，独立的观察者进行分类的科学样本。转向专注于整个图像程序，并从现象学方法论中汲取灵感，将Clonmacnoise的十世纪经文安置在一个充满生机，充满活力的世界中，展示了如何改变视角，受众，一天中的时间，季节，天气，观看途径和与旁观者的接近会引发与多态的表演对象的一系列相遇。
