Serpentine Gallery – visitors will get to inspire their visual imagination
Established in 1970, the Serpentine Gallery is located inside an early 1930s Grade II tea pavilion constructed by the British architect James Grey West. Some of the notable artists whose works visitors will find at the Serpentine Gallery include Jean-Michel Basquiat, Henry Moore, Man Ray, Philippe Parreno, Gustav Metzger and more. On the ground right at the entrance of this gallery visitors will find a permanent work executed by Hamilton Finlay and Peter Coates. It was dedicated to the Princess of Wales (Diana), who was the former patron of this gallery.

It comprises an extension that was designed by Saha Hadid Architects. Also, it includes a 900 sq. m of gallery space, shop, restaurant and social space. What’s more? The Magazine Restaurant is adjoining the gallery space. Here is a website with more details about the Serpentine Galleries: https://www.serpentinegalleries.org/support/arts-culture/
