- This article looks at the (re)invention of Holy Week in post-civil war Spain, taking the case of Valladolid. In Valladolid, a key role was played by Baroque art. The article explores this mobilisation of Baroque art, which acted as a cultural shorthand for these intertwined aesthetic and political values. In its formality, its performance and display, Holy Week was entirely characteristic of National Catholicism. As an urban performance, however, Holy Week assumed a plasticity that allowed it to change its meanings over time and to become the only “rite of victory” to survive the dictatorship.
