ARTIST ROOMS is a collection of international contemporary art which has been created through one of the largest and most imaginative gifts of art ever made to museums in Britain. The gift was made by Anthony d'Offay in 2008, with the assistance of the National Heritage Memorial Fund, The Art Fund 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.--Tate website.

As a self-appointed prophet of banality, Jeff Koons has fuelled debate over the very character of art. Koon's work deals with the commemorative aspects of our culture. The theme is celebration - ranging from religious festivals to children's birthday parties. Monumental renditions of helium balloons, balloon dogs, Easter eggs bedecked with ribbons and valentine heart-shaped necklaces are meticulously rendered in polished metals and synthetic marbles. Guggenheim Museum SoHo in 1996.
