Gifted by Anthony d’Offay, with the assistance of The Art Fund, the National Heritage Memorial Fund (NHMF) and the Scottish and British Governments, ARTIST ROOMS is jointly owned and managed by National Galleries of Scotland and Tate on behalf of the nation.
The guiding principle for the creation of ARTIST ROOMS is the concept of individual rooms devoted to particular artists. The collection of 725 works comprises 50 rooms by 25 artists and includes major bodies of work by seminal figures such as Diane Arbus, Joseph Beuys, Vija Celmins, Gilbert & George, Damien Hirst, Anselm Kiefer, Jeff Koons, Jannis Kounellis, Robert Mapplethorpe, Bruce Nauman, Ed Ruscha and Andy Warhol.
ARTIST ROOMS on Tour - the UK-wide tour of Anthony d’Offay’s post-war and contemporary art collection, is set to continue in 2010 with support from The Art Fund and The Scottish Government.
