In a period where Japan was almost hermetically cut of from the outside world, the Dutch were the only western country that had permission to trade and exchange knowledge with the Japanese. In this period both countries developed an increasing interest in each other\u2019s way of thinking and etiquettes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>2000 marked the year where Japan and the Netherlands had a 400 year long ongoing relationship. This sparked new life in the attention and appreciation for the unique relationship and dialogue between these two countries.<\/p>\r\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>The name<\/strong><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">The name of the foundation -Berg &amp; van Dalen- is inspired by a small, remarkable anecdote from the rich historical, cultural relationship between Japan and the Netherlands. The story is about two mayors\u2019 families from Shimonoseki; the most southern city of Honshu, the main island of Japan.<br \/><\/span>The family \u2018\u2019Ito\u2019\u2019 and \u2018\u2019Sanobu\u2019\u2019 were respectively called the family \u2018\u2019van den Berg\u2019\u2019 and \u2018\u2019van Dalen\u2019\u2019because of their image as \u2018\u2019Hollandophiles\u2019\u2019. Especially mayor van den Berg had the habit of dressing more Dutch then the actual Dutch people. His whole house was decorated like with Dutch oddities. Because of this the Dutch people called him \u2018\u2019De Malle\u2019\u2019 or \u2018\u2019The madman\u2019\u2019. Against everyone\u2019s expectations the mayor was even more proud of his new nickname then his original Dutch name.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stichting Berg &amp; Van Dalen\u00a0aims to depict and research the artistic, cultural and scientific relationship between The Netherlands and Japan through the means of Art.
