About Serpentine Gallery:
Serpentine Gallery is one of London's best-loved galleries for modern and contemporary art. Its Exhibition, Architecture, Education, and Public Programmes attract 590,000 visitors a year and admission is free.

In the grounds of the Gallery is a permanent work 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.

Every summer, the Serpentine Gallery commissions an architect to design a temporary Pavilion for its lawn.
