Abstract:
The article questions the current role of art in society and in mass culture by referring to different contexts, philosophies and situations where its function has been redefined. The rapid penetration of technology, artificial intelligence, and social media has predetermined new positions of art in the global community, reevaluating the understanding, meaning and need for artistic practices where contemporary art struggles to reach wider audiences.
Keywords:
