The new space will feature the Dyson's major collection of modern and contemporary artworks by the likes of David Hockney, Peter Blake, Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol and more.
Wilkinson Eyre architects has been chosen to design the gallery to be situated on the Dysons’ Dodington Park property in South Gloucestershire.
The new space, known as Dodington Art Gallery, will be free for the public to visit on set days (pre-booking will be required.) It is scheduled to open in 2021.
