Se contextualiza la introducción de la imagen de la cruz latina en un proceso de conquista y colonización del imaginario indígena en los Andes del Sur. Se propone la ocurrencia de movimientos significantes desde el universo representacional cristiano a un universo andino, destacando movimientos de negación y/o apropiación selectiva del ícono de la cruz católica en el sistema del arte rupestre. Se destaca a este sistema como un lenguaje visual funcionando desde la cultura propia y en evidente conflicto con los lenguajes formales de la evangelización colonial.
Abstract
The introduction of the image of the Latin cross as part of a process of conquest and colonization of indigenous imagery in the Andes is contextualized. The occurrence of a significant movement of the Latin cross is proposed from the Christian representational universe to the Andean universe, highlighting movements of denial and/or selective appropriation of the Catholic cross icon in the rock art system. This system stands as a visual language operating from their own culture and in obvious conflict with the formal languages of colonial evangelization.
