blahflowersI have angry red skin at the moment, why is it I can never remember to put the sun cream on before I leave the house? I hope you all come and visit me in hospital when I have to fight the skin cancer I'm risking here.
Anyway, Frank Gehry is responsible for this. I quite like it, it has a nice agora feel though, as it IS the Serpentine Gallery and this IS modern art biatch it'll be uncomfortable to sit down in for any time and while the individual roof pieces are sensibly slanted to direct rain away from the pavilion they do rather a good job of letting the sunlight in to fry people inside. Still, if you wanted a comfortable place to sit there's trees all around innit?
