The first mass market book to chronicle the history of one of the world's leading contemporary art galleries, it includes the work of 150 of the most important artists in the last twenty years.

Charles Saatchi opened his gallery at Boundary Road north London in 1985. Over the years, The Saatchi Gallery has launched the careers of many young artists, who have since become household names. This publication chronicles for the first time the breadth of work exhibited at the Saatchi Gallery from Lucien Freud to Damien Hirst, Andy Warhol to Cy Twombly and Richard Serra, to name but a few. the book is divided into sections, each reflecting different aspects of the work, which has been exhibited over more than twenty years, including the infamous Sensation and controversial Young British Artists, as well as The Triumph of Painting, New Chinese Art, Unveiled, Abstract America, The Empire Strikes Back and Newspeak. Elegantly designed with many unique features. The text includes essays by leading art critics Richard Cork, Brian Sewell, Sir Norman Rosenthal, former Secretary of Exhibitions at The Royal Academy of Art, and actor Steve Martin.
