Marianne Zamecznik

Marianne Zamecznik is a curator, exhibition designer and feminist killjoy based in Norway. With a background in both craft and curating, her practice explores how memory, language, and embodied knowledge are manifested in institutional environments. Her curatorial work is grounded in a view of the museum as a civic space, shaped by dialogue, responsibility, and complicated histories. Previously, Zamecznik was the artistic director of 0047 and director of Oslo Open. Since 2020, she has been chief curator at the Trondheim Kunstmuseum, where she has curated projects, such as Passing Motherhood (Hannah Ryggen Triennale, 2025) and Learning from the Artist (2023). In 2022, Zamecznik organized the seminar Towards a Future Museum Glossary, offering a cross-institutional take on values such as trust and care. She has also worked as a curator for public art commissions in various public spaces across Norway, ranging from schools to churches. In 2023, she was a guest editor of the issue "Craft in Public Space" for The Vessel magazine.
