Images of Calvary

Contemporary Christian artists reflect on Good Friday.

Compiled by Susan Wunderink | posted 4/03/2007 09:29AM

During the Middle Ages, a tradition of prayer and reflection on images of the Passion formed into the Stations of the Cross, a sort of Via Dolorosa of the visual arts. This slideshow of contemporary art, although it doesn't stick to the traditional fourteen stations, can be used as a meditation on Jesus Christ's path to the Cross. Each artist's statement below the art explains how it connects to Christ's sacrifice.

I need to see a real picture abstract art doesn't do anything for me. I hope it helps somebody out there and and makes them realize what Jesus went through for all of us, to give everyboday a chance for eternal life with the Lord.
