Serpentine Gallery Reviews

Good little gallery, never too busy and has some interesting exhibitions from time to time. Location is brilliant too.

Very nice place. The galleries themselves are snobbish in my opinion, but the outdoor sculptures and the 2016 pavilion were both amazing. The shops located within the galleries sell many different books, art cards and postcards. Lots of art and architecture books can also be found here. Worth a visit if you are going to Hyde Park.

Christo and Abbot are well worth a visit, but that's not all

Amongst the best galleries in London -- certainly up there with the best location. You can expect a lot of great exhibitions often celebrating unsung heroes.

A beautiful small but well placed gallery showing contemporary art.

Excellent stop for lovers of modern art. Do not expect a thousand salt, but in its small is captivating. Free entry.

One of the best in London to see art shows of great artists

A lovely, small gallery, with free-entry, worth fifteen minutes if you're passing round the lake.

The gallery is a marvel of architecture, the exhibits are always interesting and definitely enrich our culture.

A little island of ideas in the middle of a royal Park.

Lovely Venue, in a lovely setting. Not a huge space but large enough to move around easily and see amazing art. Went to see Faith Ringgold, 89 years young from US and has lived so her work reflects much of what she has seen & experienced. So worth a visit

Small gallery, very nicely curated, lovely exhibitions. Very manageable, and a nice walk through the park.

Staff are rude. Interesting building but current exhibition boring

The stacked barrels display is fascinating. Lots of unknown history behind it. One of the tiny stacked barrels display is floated on the serpentine. Amazing !!!

Went to the BIG exhibition, one of the best i've seen

It's super tiny. It's good but too small to justify back travel on it's own.

Free and usually interesting, and in the middle of the park. What's not to like? Well, if the exhibition is rubbish, there's not much for it.

This year we did not like the Pavilion. Green slate on top of some irons. But it is edition 19 and it is a must-visit site.

Worth stopping in if you're at Hyde Park. I wasn't fond of the current exhibition, but a good space, and admission is free.

Saw the Ringgold exhibition. Lots of painted faces and quilts.

There are two exhibition spaces the Serpentine gallery and the Serpentine Sackler gallery. It's a good place to see artist's work from all over the world. Both galleries situated in a beautiful park therefore it's a great place for families.

Small but interesting gallery in the middle of Hyde Park

goodness was absolute stun by the impressive of this place. Barrels! Lots of. When entered, thought, 'ok, here's lots of barrel' in first room which was full of barrel. them had stack barrel on top of one another. it was incredible. next room them have done same thing. have also done draw of barrels. wow, so many barrels! then, when thought had seen enough barrels, nope, false alarm, more of them. them stack them tall and them stack them wide and them really only really have three conformation of barrel (pyramid, flat top pyramid, vertical pile) but still was chock full of these three conformations. must be idiot because assumed this was enough of the barrels but was not even half way round the barrel gallery. must be uneducated in art because stopped seeing what was so interesting about barrels but people still look at barrels as if barrels showing them something. absolutely amazing. 2*

Small but very interesting exhibition by Faith Ring gold. Thought provoking.

Very nice park. I did not particularly appreciate the exhibition of July, but it is necessary for all the tastes ...

Both galleries are great and tend to present small but really thoughtful exhibitions. I had a very disappointing experience at the Pavilion cafe though. The staff are just rude and not trained as baristas. It's a pity given the public facing nature of the project.

The Pavillion of Sou Fujimoto is very beautiful, but very very hot!

Nice gallery with the serpentine pavilion being the high light. The pavilion changes every year

Small but cool gallery with the kind of art many people don't understand. Love it

Good gallery inside one of London's biggest and best parks. Cannot fault it.

This is worth visiting if you are in the park for art and architecture.

Usually good contemporary stuff going on here. Really depends on the show.

One of my favourites in lovely Kensington gardens great exhibition fantastic bookstore.

A highlight in the park, very important architects create different pavilions from time to time.

I visited for the Connect BTS project exhibition of Catharsis by Jakob Steensen. I highly recommend a visit to the Gallery.

Great architecture installation are done by various architects and designers. It keeps on changing. Every one was enjoying the installation.

Very nice gallery, changes often but always good, go on a sunny day!

The Hilma af Klint exhibition was incredibly beautiful. I wish it could come to the Turner Centre in Margate!

Loved it, good daring choice of exhibitions, nicely located as well.

Really nice contribution to what is a rare beauitful park in London. It took some tome to find it but the walk was well worth it. The exhibition wasn't to my taste but luckily there's always two exhibitions (one at the nearby gallery). It would be interesting if they could use the gallery for more than one artist.

This year's (2019) pavilion was disappointing in many ways.

Always enriching exhibitions! And a great art-book/mag shop!
