The twentieth anniversary of the Saatchi Gallery was celebrated in 2005 with "The Triumph of Painting", a landmark exhibition. The show presented painting as a fundamental root of artistic expression. It demonstrated how in an age of endless artistic possibilities painting remained a primary medium.

Especially influential was the work of a generation of German artists who had grown up in a post-war and divided nation.The book accompanying the exhibition, the first publication to make Abstract America - Jonathan Cape od authora a nakladatelství za skvělé ceny na e-shopu Martinus.cz
