This archive documents the exhibition and program history of Kunstinstituut Melly, Rotterdam, and of Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, the name the institution carried from its founding in 1990 until the renaming took effect in January 2021.

It holds 352 exhibitions, 19 public programs and 24 year-level record groups spanning 1990 to 2026, each gathering the artists, curators and partner organizations involved, together with installation photography, the original audio and video recordings, posters from the printed-matter archive, and films from the institution’s YouTube channel.

Records are drawn from the institution’s website and from its own archive project register; classifications are aligned to the Getty Art & Architecture Thesaurus.
