Résumé:

The Serpentine is delighted to celebrate the fifteenth year of the Galleries' annual Pavilion commission with a design by Spanish architects selgascano. Engaging with selgascano's work - which is characterised by distinctive bold colours, dynamic shapes and a play of light and shadow - is an immersive and sensory experience. As seen in this year's Pavilion, their structures use various synthetic materials and new technologies, which underscore their exploration and experimentation within the field of architecture. Each summer the Serpentine invites an internationally renowned architect to create their first built structure in England. The immediacy of the process - a maximum of six months from invitation to completion - provides a unique model for commissioning architecture. The selection of the architects, chosen for consistently expanding the boundaries of architecture practice, is led by the Serpentine's core curatorial thinking, introducing contemporary architects to a wider audience. The brief is to design a 300 square metre Pavilion that is used as a café by day and a forum for learning, debate and entertainment at night. -- Page 5.
