The Saatchi Gift celebrates the generous gift of 100 works of art made by Charles Saatchi to the Arts Council Collection in spring 1999. The works are by artists who have formed the foundations of the Young British Artist phenomenon, and include Richard Billingham, Glenn Brown, Simon Callery, Adam Chodzko, Keith Coventry, Rose Finn-Kelcey, Mark Francis, John Frankland, Siobhan Hapaska, Alex Hartley, Abigail Lane, Langlands & Bell, Brad Lochore, Mariele Neudecker, Gary Perkins, Hadrian Pigott, James Rielly, Jane Simpson, Kerry Stewart, Marcus Taylor and Richard Wilson. The gift greatly augments the Collection’s holdings of modern British art which have been purchased over the last fifty years. This catalogue includes colour reproductions of all the works and biographies of the artists.
