Serpentine Pavilion 2026, Lanza Atelier on view till October 25, 2026! Details below!

 The lineup listed  is interesting for all. Details below. 

LAST CHANCE TO SEE

THE SERPENTINE PAVILION 2026, BY LANZA ATELIER | SERPENTINE SOUTH | ON VIEW UNTIL 25 OCTOBER 2026

This year's Pavilion was designed by the Mexican architecture studio LANZA atelier, founded by Isabel Abascal and Alessandro Arienzo. This groundbreaking commission, first launched in 2000 with Dame Zaha Hadid, has introduced the UK’s inaugural structures by many of the most influential figures in international architecture.

LANZA atelier emphasises the role of design in everyday interactions and identifies the pursuit of beauty as a recurring theme in their work. The Mexico City-based architecture studio founded by Isabel Abascal and Alessandro Arienzo, has anchored the 2026 Serpentine Pavilion on the English architectural feature known as a serpentine, or crinkle-crankle, wall. The wall derives its stability from its curving form, requiring fewer bricks than a straight wall. The name of the Pavilion, a serpentine, is inspired by this feature, which makes up the Pavilion’s south wall and subtly references the nearby Serpentine Lake, whose gentle curve evokes the form of a serpent.

The north wall of the structure is in dialogue with the surrounding landscape, curving around the nearby tree canopy. A translucent roof allows light and air to permeate the space, softening the boundary between enclosure and openness. The roof rests lightly on brick columns which evoke a grove of trees.

LANZA atelier chose brick as the primary material to celebrate the distinctly English garden tradition and establish a conversation with the existing brick façade of the Serpentine South Gallery, which was originally built as a tea pavilion. The Pavilion is constructed from a rhythmic repetition of brick columns that transform the wall from opaque to permeable.

PUBLIC ART | JESÚS RAFAEL SOTO: PÉNÉTRABLE BBC JAUNE (1999; 2023 EDITION | SERPENTINE SOUTH | ON VIEW UNTIL 25 OCTOBER 2026 


Serpentine features the presentation of a public sculpture by Jesús Rafael SOTO, launching a dynamic summer programme in the park. Situated in the vicinity of Serpentine South, Pénétrable BBL Jaune (1999; 2023 Edition) is on show until 25 October 2026. This is the first outdoor presentation of the artist’s work in the UK. Art situated in the park has become central to Serpentine’s year-round activities, extending its exhibitions beyond the gallery walls and into the surrounding landscape.
 
Pénétrable BBL Jaune (1999; 2023 Edition) exemplifies the artist’s lifelong interest in movement, space and tactility. Born in Venezuela in 1923, SOTO became one of the leading exponents of kinetic art and created more than seventy Pénétrable sculptures of various sizes and colours throughout his seven-decade long career: works composed of metal rods and nylon strands suspended in space through which viewers are invited to enter.

Prune Nourry~Visionaries, Petit Palace, Palace celebratng little know women sculptors. October's lecture on the 23rd. from 12:30-1:30. Celebrate women in art ,

VISIONNAIRES, PETIT PALAIS, PARIS

© Laurent Edeline, © Éléa-Jeanne Schmitter

À l’invitation du Petit Palais, Prune Nourry met en lumière, dans l’exposition
« Visionnaires», des sculptrices méconnues ou oubliées. Malgré des contraintes sociales et un accès limité aux formations artistiques, ces pionnières sont parvenues à s’imposer dans un milieu majoritairement masculin.


Invited by the Petit Palais, Prune Nourry pays tribute to little-known or forgotten female sculptors in Visionnaires. Despite social constraints and limited access to artistic training, a handful of pioneering women succeeded in making their mark in a predominantly male field.

La collection du Petit Palais en témoigne : à peine quatre pour cent des œuvres conservées ont été réalisées par des femmes. De la galerie des sculptures au jardin, les dix-huit portraits créés par Prune Nourry ravivent la mémoire de sculptrices de la fin du XIXe et du début du XXe siècle. 

À la demande de l’artiste, trois historiennes de l’art ont rassemblé les écrits et les portraits photographiques de sculptrices ayant vécu ou travaillé à Paris. Parmi elles figurent Sarah Bernhardt, Hélène Bertaux, Selma Hortense Burke, Daria Gamsaragan, Käthe Kollwitz, Jane Poupelet, Nancy Elizabeth Prophet, Consuelo de Saint-Exupéry et Wang Jingyuan.

The Petit Palais collection reflects this: barely four percent of its works were created by women. From the sculpture gallery to the garden, the eighteen portraits created by Prune Nourry for the spaces of the Petit Palais bring to life a panoply of female sculptors from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. 

At the artist’s request, three art historians collected writings and photographic portraits of female sculptors who lived or worked in Paris at that time, a cosmopolitan artistic capital. These include Sarah Bernhardt, Hélène Bertaux, Selma Hortense Burke, Daria Gamsaragan, Käthe Kollwitz, Nancy Elizabeth Prophet, Consuelo de Saint-Exupéry and Wang Jingyuan.

Inspirée par la puissance de leurs créations et la force de leur engagement, Prune Nourry met à l’honneur leur parcours à travers des portraits monumentaux dont le style synthétique affirme une présence forte.

En écho à la collection de sculptures du Petit Palais, l’artiste choisit le plâtre pour la réalisation de ces bustes inédits. Chacune des visionnaires possède des yeux en marbre inspirés de la statuaire polychrome du Petit Palais. 

Inspired by the power of their creations and the strength of their commitment, Prune Nourry pays tribute to their careers and choices in monumental portraits stripped back to their essentials to let their presence speak for itself. 

She chose plaster to echo the Petit Palais sculpture collection, and marble for the eyes, drawing on the museum's polychrome statuary.
