Serpentine Galleries
The Serpentine Gallery has two locations - one in Kensington Gardens (Serpentine South) and one on West Carriage Drive (Serpentine North) - in London. It is a celebrated institution for contemporary art, showcasing a diverse range of modern and contemporary artworks. Founded in 1970, the gallery has become a pivotal platform for emerging and established artists from around the world. It comprises two distinct spaces: the original Serpentine Gallery and the Serpentine Sackler Gallery, designed by the late architect Zaha Hadid. The galleries host a variety of exhibitions, installations, and live events throughout the year, including the prestigious annual Serpentine Pavilion commission, which invites an architect to design a temporary structure on the gallery's lawn. This innovative project has become a highlight of London's cultural calendar. The Serpentine is committed to accessibility and education, offering free admission and a range of public programs and educational initiatives. It serves as a cultural hub for both locals and expatriates, providing a space for artistic exploration and inspiration. Visit their website for the addresses to their two locations.
