Art That Transforms the Workplace
Over four decades introducing original artwork into the world's leading corporations, law firms, hospitals, and universities.
Arts of the Americas (AOTA) was a pioneering art consulting firm that spent more than four decades transforming the way corporations thought about workplace art. At a time when original artwork was typically reserved for executive offices and boardrooms, AOTA introduced a more inclusive vision by creating diverse collections displayed throughout offices, corridors, conference rooms, and shared spaces—allowing everyone, not just executives, to experience and enjoy art every day.
AOTA championed emerging artists from across the Americas and around the world, giving talented artists opportunities to be discovered while celebrating the cultural diversity of the workplace. Employees could connect with artwork that reflected their own heritage and discover the artistic traditions of other cultures, fostering a greater sense of inclusion, curiosity, and belonging.
Rather than relying on traditional art centers and established galleries, AOTA traveled extensively to discover exceptional artists in countries that were often overlooked by the international art market. By working directly with these artists, AOTA made original fine art more affordable and accessible. This approach enabled organizations to build distinctive collections while helping countless individuals realize that owning original art and building a personal collection was within their reach.
Over the years, AOTA partnered with more than 100 Fortune 500 companies, leading law firms, hospitals, universities, and financial institutions, creating art programs that enriched workplaces, inspired creativity, celebrated cultural diversity, and demonstrated that original art should be experienced by everyone—not just a privileged few.
