PAF (=PerformingArtsForum) is a place for the professional and not-yet professional practitioners and activists in the field of performing arts, visual art, new media and internet, theory and cultural production, who seek to research and determine their own conditions of work. PAF is for people who can motorize their own artistic production and knowledge production not only responding to the opportunities given by the institutional market. Initiated and run by artists, theoreticians and practitioners themselves, PAF is a user-created, user-innovative informal institution. Neither a production-house and venue, nor a research-center, it is a platform for everyone who wants to expand possibilities and interests in his/her own working practice.

Inicijativu regionalne saradnje aktera nezavisnog kulturnog sektora pokrenule su hrvatske organizacije okupljene u mrežu Clubture, motivisane potrebom da se pojedini zahtevniji kulturni programi ostvare kroz saradnju s gradovima u regiji. Temeljni dugoročni cilj ovog programa je izgradnja samostalne regionalne policentrične mreže - saradničke platforme - nezavisnih, neprofitnih organizacija i inicijativa, koja će biti utemeljena na principima intenzivne direktne saradnje i programske razmene.

Frakcija, Performing Arts Magazine, was established ten years ago by a group of dramaturgs, theatre theoreticians, critics and artists based in Zagreb. From its first issue FRAKCIJA has been providing a theoretical and critical support for projects that were of marginal interest to the (not only Croatian) mainstream media, theatre criticism and official drama and theatre studies. Until 2000 FRAKCIJA has published one international issue every year, in collaboration with various production units, performing arts centres and festivals, such as Intercult (Stockholm), International Sommertheater Festival (Hamburg), Aarhus Festuge, Chapter Arts Centre (Cardiff) and DANCE festival (Munich).

Okuplja organizacije, grupe i pojedince/ke angažovane u radu na poboljšanju pravnog i infrastrukturnog statusa nezavisne scene; preraspodeli javnih prostora; povećanju transparentnosti mehanizama i protokola delovanja nadležnih institucija umetnosti i kulture; i zastupljenosti nezavisne scene u medijskom i javnom prostoru.
