The Ingram Collection

The Lightbox Gallery regularly exhibits The Ingram Collection through an annual exhibition programme as well as displays in the Ingram Sculpture Gallery, courtyard, and other public areas.

The Ingram Collection is one of the largest and most significant publicly accessible collections of modern British art in the UK, available to all through a programme of loans and exhibitions. Founded in 2002 by serial entrepreneur and philanthropist Chris Ingram, the majority of the collection was donated by Chris in 2016 to the Ingram Art Foundation, which was established and funded by Chris to assist in fulfilling his ambition to make such works widely available for public display.

The collection now spans over 100 years of British art and includes over 600 artworks. More than 400 of these are by some of the most important British artists of the twentieth century, amongst them Edward Burra, Lynn Chadwick, Elisabeth Frink, Barbara Hepworth and Eduardo Paolozzi. The collection's main focus is on the art movements that developed in the early and middle decades of the twentieth century, and there is a particularly strong and in-depth holding of Modern British sculpture.

The Ingram Collection also holds a growing number of works by young and emerging artists, and in 2016 established the Ingram Prize, an annual purchase prize created to celebrate and support the work and early careers of UK art school graduates.

The Ingram Collection is fully accessible online at www.ingramcollection.com, where you can also find more information about the collection’s wider activities and exhibition programme. For further enquiries please contact Alison Price, Collections Manager, alison.price@ingramcollection.com
