Casa Asia presents in this digital report a summary of activities that have taken place throughout 2014. We have carried out all this work thanks to the support of the public administrations of the Casa Asia Consortium as well as the collaboration of the institutions and companies of our Board of Trustees.

This report presents detailed information about the most relevant events of the year and adds a comprehensive list of all the activities in a chronological order. The economic field, a top priority for Casa Asia, leads our report with the working lunch Minister García-Margallo held with representatives of the main Asian multinational companies established in Barcelona and the Spanish companies with a presence in Asian countries. This document also stands out the presentation in Barcelona of the economic report published by the Asian Development Bank last year, along with the organisation of several events aimed to attract Asian investments towards our country.

In the field of institutional relations, I would like to mention the contribution of Casa Asia to the Spain-Japan Dual Year and the two dialogue forums held in 2014: Spain-Korea Dialogue Forum (Seoul), and the Spain-Philippines Dialogue Forum (Valencia). The objective of these Dialogue Forums is to promote new projects and increase relations with Korea and the Philippines.

Asian cultures count with a big number of fans in our country and for this reason it is one of the core areas for the activities of Casa Asia. We highlight in this summary the Asian film series we hold along the year, the Casa Asia Film Week and two exhibitions of contemporary art: “A Japanese Garden”, co-produced with Matadero-Madrid and “The Tree and the Shadow”, organised by Casa Asia in collaboration with the Chinese Cultural Centre in Madrid and the Institut d’Estudis Baleàrics.

Casa Asia held in 2014 the 13th edition of the Asia Festival thanks to the support of Barcelona Provincial Council and Barcelona City Council. It is a Festival devoted to the Asian performing arts. The celebration of the Chinese New Year and the project “Barcelona Coral Asia” are also useful tools for Casa Asia to engage with the Asian communities in Spain.

The educational programmes of Casa Asia include an offer of language courses, arts and other disciplines from the Asian continent as well as courses addressed to entrepreneurs and business people about business protocol in a variety of cultural settings, legal and fiscal topics and clues on how to do business in Asia. The Bamboo School is the main educational programme of Casa Asia focused on school kids and teenagers. Finally, the annual meeting of Asian Studies organised by Casa Asia facilitates the coordination and collaboration of Spanish universities that offer Asian studies.

On behalf of Casa Asia’s team, thank you for your support!

It consists of a unique installation of great visual impact that reproduces the topography of the Japanese country through its political division in 8 regions and 47 administrative prefectures. These regions are represented like islands (‘topographies of void’), which are delimited by sculpture containers in a symbolic way. It began in Matadero- Madrid in January, in July it was exhibited in Sant Pau’s Modernist Venue in Barcelona and it closed the year at the Hospital Real de Granada.

This display counted with two large installations, sculptures, murals and paintings that approach spectators to nature. The materials Chiang used in this work came from nature such as tree roots or other plants, spider silk, old lizards, dead rats, organic waste of insects, birds and plants. Art and nature could not be separated in the concept and production of this display.

Coinciding with the opening of Sant Pau’s Modernist Venue, on the 24th of February 2014, and after a process of adaptation of the spaces, Casa Asia Media Library resumed its public service counseling centre, multimedia resources and documentation at the new headquarters of Casa Asia, as well as the information point of the institution, InfoAsia.

Throughout the year, the Media Library signed two agreements with the Consortium of Libraries of Barcelona (CBB) and with the School of Music of Catalonia (ESMUC) in order to spread literature, films and music from Asia and the Pacific through temporary loans of the collections "Travelling Suitcases" (800 documents 1,000 titles, respectively).

The Media Library was present at the 22nd International Book Fair Liber, held from the 1st to the 3rd of October in Barcelona. It also took part in the microsite of the Research Group of Central Asia (www. asiacentral. Stand in LIBER es/grupoub), coordinated by the University of Barcelona, funded by the Institut Català Internacional per la Pau (ICIP) and the Ministry of Education.
