Ingram has been described as “one of the most active and thoughtful collectors of Modern British Art today.”[1] Robert Upstone (former director of The Fine Art Society and Tate curator) considers the collection to have been "created with exemplary visual flair and an unerring eye for quality".

The collection spans over a hundred years of British art and includes works in oil and on paper, sculptures, installations and videos.

The sculpture holdings are significant, featuring works by artists such as, amongst others, Robert Adams, Kenneth Armitage, Reg Butler, Lynn Chadwick, Geoffrey Clarke, Robert Clatworthy, Sir Jacob Epstein, Eric Gill, Bernard Meadows, Eduardo Paolozzi, William Turnbull and Leon Underwood.

The collection includes watercolour works by artists such as Eileen Agar, John Craxton, Mary Fedden, Elizabeth Frink, Terry Frost, David Remfry and Keith Vaughan.

The Ingram Collection also includes contemporary art, holding works by young and emerging artists as well as those who have now gained international reputations: Haroon Mirza, Suki Chan and Alexander Hoda.
