Serpentine - Introducing our next exhibition at Serpentine South

 

COMING SOON Peter Doig House of Music Serpentine South 10 October 2025 - 8 February 2026 FREE Serpentine presents a new project by Peter Doig that explores the role of music, film, and sites of communal gathering, listening and creative exchange within his practice. Transforming the gallery into a listening space, House of Music brings together recent paintings and, for the first time, integrates sound into Doig’s work. The exhibition features two sets of rare, restored analogue speakers, originally designed for cinemas and large auditoriums. Music selected by the artist – from his substantial archive of vinyl records and cassette tapes accumulated over decades – plays through a set of ‘high fidelity’ 1950s wooden Klangfilm Euronor speakers. BOOK NOW UPCOMING EVENT Davi Pontes & Wallace Ferreira: Repertório N.1 Porchester Hall, Porchester Rd, London W2 5HS 18 & 19 October 2025, 7pm £18, £15 Conc. Discover a new performance commission that explores self-defense as choreography. Repertório N.1 is the final piece of a trilogy by Brazilian artists Davi Pontes and Wallace Ferreira. Drawing on postcolonial, gender and race studies, the Repertório trilogy, a long-term performance project, interrogates the mechanisms of brutality and attempts to dismantle them.  BOOK NOW NEW LIMITED EDITION SERIES Refik Anadol: Artificial Realities: Coral Serpentine unveils Artificial Realities: Coral, a new limited edition series by Refik Anadol, now available for purchase for a limited time, until 31 October 2025.
