Overview
- Serpentine confirmed Salma Hayek Pinault, Alfonso Cuarón, and Alejandro González Iñárritu as co-hosts for its London gala in Kensington Gardens.
- The event will take place under “a serpentine,” the 25th annual pavilion designed by Mexico City’s LANZA atelier with a brick structure that shifts from solid to open.
- Designers Isabel Abascal and Alessandro Arienz describe the pavilion as a bridge between the English garden setting and Mexican masonry traditions.
- Serpentine chair Michael R. Bloomberg, CEO Bettina Korek, and artistic director Hans Ulrich Obrist will host the fundraiser to support free exhibitions and artist projects.
- Guests will follow an artist-led walk with highlights from exhibitions by Cecily Brown and David Hockney plus Mexican food and fashion activations shaped with LANZA atelier.
