Project Objectives
The foundation aims to expand international opportunities for Japanese dance artists and creators renowned for their delicate and expressive works. To achieve this, it promotes the development of creative environments and establishes infrastructure to support international tours. By strengthening its networks with international theaters and arts festivals, the foundation also seeks to pioneer Japan’s first dedicated dance agency, connecting exceptional Japanese dance productions with opportunities on the global stage.
Project Approach
This project creates a professional environment with mentor dialogue to develop dance works with strong international appeal. After domestic premieres, works are refined and promoted at art markets, festivals and theatres. Artists, producers, and critics engage in the full process, aiming for international performances. It boosts global recognition of Japan’s dance and cultural arts.
