In this paper, we are focusing on the process of art politicking in Yugoslav art theory in the period from 1945 to 1952. The work time span is determined by the existence of the Apparatus for agitation and propaganda, by means of which the development of art theory and practice was greatly determined in the postwar Yugoslavia. The set problem is to be approached through consideration of demands which official art theory was set to Yugoslav artist of this period, as well as through consideration of artistic and theoretic frames by which perspective of art politicking was determined. In this paper, art politicking is seen like specific manifestation of ideological position by which official political platform in the period from 1945 to 1952 was built. According to this, interpretation of art politicking not only as act of propaganda, but as well as symbol of fight for accomplishment of vision of new Yugoslav society is proposed
