Review:
In the early 1990s, Charles Saatchi began to collect a range of works that would change the face of British art. Damien Hirst's giant shark in formaldehyde, Tracey Emin's unmade bed and a chilling portrait of Myra Hindley by Marcus Harvey are among the artworks that have since become icons of the decade. The Saatchi Gallery in London is a permanent home for a changing selection of Saatchi's world-famous collection. This fast-paced and fascinating film, featuring one hundred of these artworks, is accompanied by reflections and anecdotes from the artists themselves. Sarah Lucas's confrontational self-portraits are among the highlights, as are the bold paintings of Gary Hume, photographs by Richard Billingham, sculptures of genetically mutated children by Jake and Dinos Chapman, and many more.
