Summary/Abstract: Albanian fine art in North Macedonia, which begins at the end of the 50s of the twentieth century, undoubtedly depended on the position of Albanians in the country, and not only appears with a great delay, initially it was also manifested with a limited quantitative and stylistic opus compared to the national artistic scene. It should be noted that currently there are used two versions of labeling related to the fine art work of Albanian artist. One version is formulated as "Albanian fine art in North Macedonia" which is mainly used by Albanian reasrchers, whereas the other as "The art of Albanian creators in North Macedonia" which is imposed by Macedonian researchers. This entire issue is related to the question whether we can talk about Albanian national art in the Republic of North Macedonia. At first glance, it seems that there is no difference between these two formulations, yet essentially, they differ from each other. However, it is clear that this dilemma is unnecessary since now all the conditions and criteria for implementing the label "Albanian fine art in North Maceonia" are fulfilled.
