  • Charles Saatchi Interview - A reader pointed out that I missed an interesting interview with the British art collector Charles Saatchi last month. The Guardian newspaper popped into the house of Saatchi and his famous cooking partner Nigella Lawson to ask him a few questions about art and life.
  • Rent a Saatchi - The advertising man and art collector Charles Saatchi is renting out a selection of 600 works from his collection.

  • Saatchi's Triumph of Painting - Contemporary British art collector and gallery owner Charles Saatchi has cleared out his dead sharks, cow heads in glass, dirty beds, and anything of a conceptual nature, to replace them with good old fashioned paintings on canvas, hanging on walls, and sometimes with frames on them.
  • Sharks and beds take a rest as Saatchi turns to paintings - In a shocking lapse of form, the art collector Charles Saatchi is to demonstrate some good taste. The first exhibition of next year in London's Saatchi Gallery will turn to the old-fashioned practice of colour being applied to a flat surface.
