ENThe article1 presents the relationship between researchers and performers (woodcarvers) from the nineteenth century to the present in Lithuania. It discusses the role of the researcher in a woodcarver’s creative work when creating a cross as his own. It examines what kind of help the carver expects from the researcher and what actual help is provided. The researcher's requirements from the master that can be observed during the cross-making process are highlighted, as are indirect performer-researcher relations when the performer himself studies ethnographic and iconographic material.
