Marta Barina
is an Artistic Director working across exhibition practice and cultural production, operating between institutional and independent contexts through collaborative and transdisciplinary formats. Over the course of a decade in London, she worked in leading international contexts including White Cube and David Zwirner, and later as Studio Director to Oscar Murillo. In 2024, she founded Mare Karina, a gallery and cultural production studio based in Venice and dedicated to contemporary culture, where she develops exhibitions and projects that bring together new generations of artists, institutions, and multidisciplinary platforms, conceiving curatorial practice as a tool for activating new imaginaries and hybrid communities of reference.
