The author of the article, Agata Siwiak, proposes the implementation of a professional support system for artists working with processes of engaging art, with particular emphasis on practices in areas of social crises. As an inspiration, the author presents the forms of support that have been developed on the basis of social work, activism and theatre pedagogy. The article is based on in-depth interviews with practitioners of engaging theatre who represent various theatre environments and professions, and on the knowledge Siwiak gained through her own theatre practices as part of the research-based practice methodology (the author is also a performance arts curator).

The text is a proposal to present the specifics of activities carried out by Węgajty Theatre in the formula of the Other Theatre School, in the second decade of its existence – the years 2010-2019. The author uses categories such as process, road / walking, performative theatre, rhapsodic structure, artivism, in an attempt to present the way of creating performances in Węgajty. She employs the proposed terms with reference to the findings made in various areas of knowledge by such artists as: Arnold Mindell, Rebecca Solnit, Tadeusz Pawłowski, Jean-Paul Sarrazac as well as the practice of Ricardo Dominguez, for example. What constitutes a significant element of the research material are unpublished interviews with the founders of Węgajty Theatre and its associates conducted by the author and Joanna Kocemba-Żebrowska in the years 2018-2020.

The article analyses one of the projects of the Center for Political Beauty – The Dead Are Coming (2015). This operation was a direct response to the disgraceful practices of storing the dead bodies of refugees in plastic garbage bags in a Sicilian hospital and to burial procedures for forced migrants that were deviating from the minimum standards. The collective exhumed the mass grave, carried out the identification of the corpses, and then transported the two dead to Berlin, where they prepared burials to which politicians were invited. The author briefly introduces the activities of the German group, reconstructs the progress of this intervention and analyses the critical discourse that has developed around this project. She also uses Alfred Gell’s theory of agency to establish a new way of thinking about this action – one that takes into account the agency of dead bodies and problematises their necro-subjectivity.

The article addresses the presence of the avant-garde in the discourse and the practice of social resistance in Serbia at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries. The focal point of the text is the thesis that nowadays the avant-garde resonates not so much as an artistic formation, but as an ideological complex. The author investigates the manners of contemporary transposition of ideas and avant- garde imagination through the analysis of the activities of the Centre for Cultural Decontamination in Belgrade. Using the examples of two programmes: Modernism, Serbian National Identity in 20th Century and En Garde – Avant-Garde 20/21, the author shows how the local experience of the interwar avant-garde and the neo-avant-garde formed within the movement of ʼ68 protests, creates a specific ideological current, a model of self-organization and a pattern of activities bordering between art and socio-political reality. In the 1990s, in Serbia, it becomes the reference system for artivism (an approach consisting in influencing social and political reality through art), and today still remains an inspiration for independent intellectual and artistic environments and for critical institutions that create an alternative and polemic cultural space to the official policies of the Serbian authorities.
