Serpentine is a London-based cultural institution that operates two galleries in Kensington Gardens, Serpentine South and Serpentine North. Founded in 1970, it supports contemporary art by presenting exhibitions across a spectrum from emerging artists to internationally recognized practitioners, offering spaces for experimentation and for artists to be seen and heard. It delivers a year-round program that blends exhibitions with education, live events, and the use of technology, leveraging its park-side setting to reach diverse audiences. Free admission and the gallery setting help Serpentine connect with a broad local community and visitors from beyond the area. Based in London, the organization functions as a mid-sized cultural institution with a continuous slate of programming. In 2026, it announced a long-term partnership with Rolex, naming the Swiss brand as Official Timepiece of the Serpentine Pavilion from 2026 onward.
