Serpentine Gallery

ArtArchitectureClosed · Opens 10am

The Serpentine runs two exhibition spaces in Kensington Gardens: the original 1934 tea pavilion and the Serpentine North, designed by Zaha Hadid. Together they punch well above their weight, showing ambitious solo exhibitions by artists like Yayoi Kusama, Marina Abramovic, and Gerhard Richter. The annual summer pavilion commission, where a leading architect builds a temporary structure on the lawn, is one of London's great cultural traditions.
