Serpentine

Championing the possibilities of new ideas in contemporary art since opening in 1970, Serpentine has presented pioneering exhibitions for almost half a century, showing a wide range of work from emerging practitioners to the most internationally recognised artists of our time, providing a place for them to experiment and an open platform for them to be seen and heard. Across two sites in Kensington Gardens, Serpentine South and Serpentine North present a year-round, open programme of exhibitions, including education, live events and technological innovation in the park and beyond. Proud to maintain free access for all visitors, thanks to its unique location, the galleries also reach an exceptionally broad audience and connect with the local community.
