Saatchi's Art Goes Up In Smoke

Charles Saatchi is used to generating headlines for his taste in art. Last week he was in the news because of the destruction of it. The U.K.’s biggest collector of modern art fell victim to a massive fire in an East London warehouse that consumed more than 100 works by some of Britain’s best-known contemporary artists. Saatchi owned much of the art, including Tracy Emin’s piece Everyone I Ever Slept With, From 1963 to 1995 (the names are hung inside a tent) and Jake and Dinos Chapman‘s Hell, a disturbing arrangement of thousands of miniature German soldiers.
