JOHANNA or ‘Jo’ Baring speaks about Chris Ingram, media entrepreneur, serial investor and philanthropist, in respectful tones that occasionally give way to indulgence.
“He’s already got lots of Neo- Romantic works,” she says with a slight smile during our meeting in her Oxford Circus office. “Then he sees another Keith Vaughan and says, ‘I know I don’t need it, I know, I know, but I just love it’.”
Baring is curator of the Ingram Collection, widely acknowledged as one of the leading private collections of its kind.
