Abstract: The aim of this paper is to try to summarize and problematize, and then to offer some theses that were discussed at the Scientific Meeting entitled Engaged Art. The gathering was held on April 18, 2024, in the premises of the Faculty of Philosophy in Sarajevo. Eighteen speakers participated in this Conference. Approaches to this topic were interdisciplinary (fine art, novel, poetry, theatre, film, drama, etc.), historically different (contemporary, ancient Greece, 19th century, etc.), so the following questions were highlighted, which this text underlines: what is engaged art today anyway?, is art in itself already engaged or is there really a special genre of "engagement"?, is engaged art connected to ideology, and if so, in what way!? These and similar questions are the subject of this work.
