Spin 180 BV

Widening horizons and lowering barriers. Supporting businesses wanting to trade between Japan, the UK and across the European Union.

Culture captures and encapsulates the ways of thought and behaviour of a society at a profound level. The aim of SPIN 180 BV is to promote Japanese artists and culture through the arranging of events such as exhibitions, shows, and participation in design shows and art events. We believe that there are many artists and those working in the cultural field in Japan who are finding it difficult to ha

ve their name heard abroad and thus are not finding the international recognition that they deserve. As a result of this problem, Japan as a nation lacks "soft power", the much sought-after ability to influence other nations through non-military or economic means. Here, at Spin180, we are looking to bridge that gap and provide Japanese artists with the means to achieve international recognition. Furthermore, through sponsorship of such events, we provide Japanese and non-Japanese companies with opportunities to be associated with socially enriching cultural events.

文化とは、その社会の思想、習慣、行動にかかる真髄を深いレベルまで包囲するものだと考えます。私達が立ち上げた「Spin18０」の事業理念は、日本とヨーロッパ諸国の価値観をつなぐ（橋渡しをする）ことです。双方のアートカルチャーの橋渡しを創業事業として、イベントの企画とその実施を行ないます。他方で、日本とヨーロッパ諸国の価値観を大事にしている方々のために、社会のために、「Spin180」は双方のソフトパワーの拡張事業を邁進していきたいと思います。

‘Despite these difficult times, many visitors came to the Exhibition especially.’

Thank you for the kind words of our great partners at the Japanisches Kulturinstitut Köln - which we, at Spin 180 BV, are celebrating at our AGM 2020 in Amsterdam this week.

Earlier in the year, with the help of our amazing partners at London Borough of Camden, we were able to deliver a major extended run in London, followed by our first exhibition in Germany at the Japanisches Kulturinstitut Köln.

Incorporating our first video, filmed in Kyoto, and accompanied by our first simultaneous online Exhibition, we were delighted that our ‘Kyoto Modernism’ show in Cologne attracted significant attention at such a time of serious constraints to normal life everywhere.

Looking forward, we believe that there are big opportunities, particularly now, to strengthen the feeling for and understanding of places through new perspectives - both through online exhibitions and events and in innovative settings. This is a time when audiences can be engaged and widened with exciting content and thrilling new perspectives. Let us know if you agree? Thank you for your great support.
