Raster 2008 is a bilingual directory of 24 authors/groups and their projects in the performing arts field that had their premiere in Serbia in 2008 in independent production. Versatility of the independent performing arts scene ranges from practically ‘no-budget’ works to well supported, yet still independently produced art projects, from discursive to non-verbal theatre, from dance ensemble productions to cyberformance or inclusive productions with disabled people, even to performances from the visual art domain – overlapping or converging when engaged in reflection on contemporary performing arts.

Projects of the following authors/gropus are represented:
D. Aćin, A. Bjelajac, Dah Teatar, B. Denić, dez.org, "Hajde da..." Group, I. Stanišić, Ister theatre, DDT, S. Mitrović, Mudra Theatre, D. Murić, Perpetuum Dance Company, PoToP Theatre, POD Theatre, I. Pravdić, M. Perić, M. Solar & I. Radenković, G. Savić Ra, Studio for Electronic Theatre, SubHuman Teatar, Teatar Mimart, TkH and Žene na delu[Women at Work].
 

This publication also features three essays that theoretise and/or contextualise recent performing arts scene in Serbia through the provisional division in the fields of dance (A. Vujanović), alternative theatre (M. Bogavac) and performance art/actions (A. Vilenica).

Raster 2008 is a special publication of the Forum for Performing Arts Critique TkH platform project that is - through critical and discoursive support (round tables, interviews, reviews, on-line publishing) - engagaged in promotion, auto-reflection and strenghtening conections between theoretical and artistic practice in the independent performing arts scene in Serbia.
