The exhibition Sculpture Now! Marianne Lammersen opened on June 6. The exhibition can be seen until October 11, 2026.

Sculpture Now!

With Sculpture Now!, the Zandvoorts Museum provides contemporary artists with a platform to showcase new sculptural work within the context of the museum and its heritage collection. Amidst the stories of Zandvoort — from fishing village to international seaside resort — space is created for contemporary sculpture that connects the past and the present.

That Which Remains Afloat

For this edition, artist Marianne Lammersen presents the installation ‘That Which Remains Afloat’, a new sculptural work in which she reflects on the transition between the Belle Époque and the period of Reconstruction in Zandvoort. In this historical transitional period, she examines how elegance, loss, and recovery coexist and how these traces can still be felt today.

Marianne Lammersen

Marianne Lammersen (Nijland, 1984) is a Dutch artist who grew up in the countryside, which strongly influences her perspective on the urban environment. In her work, she explores the tension between nature and the human-constructed world. She creates collages, objects, and installations in which she questions themes such as growth, order, and chaos. By combining contrasting materials such as glass, concrete, ceramics, and paper, she depicts the complexity of our time. Her artisanal and slow working method forms a conscious counter-reaction to the speed and production-oriented thinking of modern society.
