The couple donated $100 million towards the building, it was announced on Tuesday, and it will be named The Fox: NGV Contemporary.
The gallery will be built in Southbank, showcasing contemporary art, design, fashion and architecture of local, national and international significance.
It will sit within a wider, new 18,000sqm public space in the heart of a transformed Melbourne Arts Precinct.
NGV Contemporary is due to open in 2028 after the design by Angelo Candalepas and Associates was revealed in March.
