The Serpentine Gallery is by far and away one of the most exciting and constantly inspiring art galleries in London.
Situated in the middle of Hyde Park (its actually on the edge of Kensington Gardens across the way from the Diana Memorial).
They've had exhibitions from a wide range of people, most recently Bjork hubby Matthew Barney and my favorite was the Damian Hirst private collection which featured works by Emin, Warhol and Koons.
Once a year in the summer they have the 'Pavillion' which is a temporary structure designed by some architect du jour in which they have a coffee sop and often talks and screenings.
Also of note is the great book shop and the clean loos (which are a god send for those boozy summer afternoons in the park).
