About

The Serpentine is one of London’s best-loved galleries for modern and contemporary art. It attracts up to 800,000 visitors in any one year and admission is free.

In the grounds of the Gallery is a permanent work by artist and poet Ian Hamilton Finlay, dedicated to the Serpentine’s former Patron Diana, Princess of Wales. The work comprises eight benches, a tree-plaque, and a carved stone circle at the Gallery’s entrance.

In 2013, the Serpentine opened an additional space, the Serpentine North Gallery, located nearby in Kensington Gardens. This innovative arts venue for the 21st century is housed in the Grade II-listed building formerly known as The Magazine and its Zaha Hadid-designed extension.
