The Ingram  Collection spans over 100 years of British Art and includes works in oil and on paper,  sculptures,installations and videos. Chris is passionate about sharing the collection and  wants as many people as possible to enjoy it.

Seventeen modern sculptures, including works by Jacob Epstein and Elisabeth Frink, have been given to The Lightbox by Joan Hurst through the Art Fund. The collection, which represents some of the most significant and influential artists in modern sculpture, is the first major gift to the Woking gallery.
