Saatchi Collection Media Success

The success of an art collection or artist heavily depends on media coverage. The journey of Charles Saatchi's collection and its media attention demonstrate how sales and public attendance at exhibitions rely on such coverage. From the Royal Academy of Arts in London to the Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin, from the Brooklyn Museum in New York to Gavin Brown's gallery in Chelsea, the agreements and disagreements among organizers, sponsors, and censors seem to benefit everyone involved.
