Charles Saatchi founded the Saatchi & Saatchi advertising agency in 1970, which quickly grew to become the largest in the world. He started collecting art at about the same time and opened his first public gallery, a 30,000 sq ft ex-paint factory in Boundary Road, London in 1985. His new gallery occupying the 70,000 sq ft Duke of York HQ, Kings Road, London opened in October 2008.

Art collector, gallery owner and founder of a global advertising agency, Charles Saatchi is famously publicity-shy, a reluctant interviewee who never attends his own gallery openings, let alone anyone else's. This book brings together his unflinching responses to more than 200 questions he has been set over the last few years by leading journalists and critics as well as members of the public. Whether the questions are about the art world, collecting, advertising, money or his personal life, Saatchi answers them all with disarming and sometimes brutal frankness, creating an enlightening and entertaining first-hand account of the most influential art collector of our time.
Questions include:
-How do you decide whether something is worth £10 or £10 million?
-So much contemporary art looks the same to me. Am I missing something?
-Do you think you have messed up anybody’s life by flogging off all their work?
-Is too much art now about shock value rather than creativity, like Tracey Emin’s unmade bed?
-How can you tell a good Picasso from a bad Picasso? Come to that, how can you tell a good Damien Hirst from a bad Damien Hirst?
