The Ingram Collection
at The Lightbox
The Ingram Collection is a private collection of Modern and Contemporary British art. It is on loan to The Lightbox from Chris Ingram, a Woking businessman and owner of Woking Football Club.
Chris Ingram started collecting art following a trip to The State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia in the early 1990s. Since then he has amassed over 200 artworks by Modern and Contemporary British artists, including a number of well known, rare and sought after items. The collection spans nearly 100 years of art from the 1900s to the present day.
Why is The Ingram Collection at The Lightbox?
The Lightbox is committed to making art accessible for everybody. To this end, Chris has kindly offered to put The Ingram Collection on long-term loan to The Lightbox. There will be a number of temporary exhibitions composed wholly or partly of works from the collection.
Sculptures from The Ingram Collection can be seen on changing display in the public areas of the building. Paintings from the collection also adorn the walls of The Ambassadors Room, a stunning corporate hire facility overlooking the Basingstoke Canal.
By offering his collection for public display, Chris has given the people of Woking and the South East an opportunity to share in his enjoyment of this treasure-trove of national significance.
