Witte de With, Rotterdam

Established in 1990, the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art stands as a public establishment situated in Rotterdam. The center curates a dynamic array of artistic commissions, exhibitions, educational projects, and events. Additionally, it boasts an enduring editorial initiative encompassing artist books, publications, exhibition guides, catalogs, and online content.

Witte de With has emerged as a cultural hub, fostering connections between emerging and established artists, curators, writers, and art enthusiasts, both locally and globally. A recurring theme involves contemplating the definition of art institutions in relation to artistic experimentation and cultural advancement.

The center's program therefore delves into the contemporary placement of art in the current moment, while reflecting on historical perspectives of art engagement. Furthermore, it envisions potential trajectories that may mold the realm of contemporary art, as well as the reciprocal influence that art and culture could exert on each other.
