Abstract

The aim of the research is to analyse basic tendencies in modern architecture on the example of temporal summer pavilions of art-gallery of Serpentine, located in Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park, London, into the creation of which during 2000s–2018s the best-known architects from all over the world were engaged. Research methods. The methods of synthesis, comparison, generalization, and historical approach have been used, as well as a thorough analysis of the project practice and the works of leading theorists in history of architecture. The scientific novelty is in the analysis of modern tendencies in architecture of exhibition pavilions with the discovery of new approaches in the architectural planning, formation, application of new building materials, taking into consideration stylistic transformations and creative handwriting of the author. Conclusions. The retrospective review of eighteen pavilions of Serpentine Gallery in London allows to distinguish a number of tendencies in modern architecture. At first, prominent architects of senior generation, by and large representing the style of deconstructivism, were engaged in creation of pavilions. More recently, a tendency has emerged to invite young avant-garde architects who successfully combine both technological innovations and authentic ethnic patterns in their works. Besides architects, artists, sculptors, landscape designers and engineers take part in a creative process, joining together to create a unique УДК 72.036 СУЧАСНІ ТЕНДЕНЦІЇ В АРХІТЕКТУРІ НА ПРИКЛАДІ ПАВІЛЬЙОНІВ ГАЛЕРЕЇ СЕРПЕНТАЙН У ЛОНДОНІ Вікторія Маланюк, https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8002-4613 кандидат архітектури, старший викладач кафедри дизайну і технологій, Київський університет культури, Київ, Україна vik_malanyuk@ukr.net
