Novo Arts: Bespoke Fine Arts Consultancy and Custom Fabrication

Novo Arts is a premier fine arts consultancy and custom fabrication firm based in New York City, founded in 1975 by Marlaina Deppe with the foundational mission of making high-quality art accessible to everyone. For nearly five decades, the organization has pioneered the concept of the Art for Everyone philosophy, evolving into a leading resource for corporate, hospitality, healthcare, and residential spaces. Novo Arts operates a dual-model approach, uniquely combining a Fine Arts Curation Program that sources existing works from global markets with an in-house Studio Production Program. This studio, located in an 8,000-square-foot facility in Brooklyn, employs a diverse team of professionally trained artists, including painters, sculptors, graphic designers, and photographers, to create original site-specific works tailored to client identities. Under the creative direction of its leadership team, Novo Arts facilitates every stage of an art program, from initial ideation and curatorial direction to fabrication, procurement, and final installation. The firm is known for its creative collaboration with architects and designers, translating brand narratives into tactile visual experiences. Their portfolio features high-profile projects for organizations such as Viacom and Sentinel Capital Partners, utilizing a vast range of mediums including murals, laser-cut grills, repurposed materials, and traditional fine art. By bridging the gap between the business and art communities, Novo Arts offers an economic and inspired alternative to traditional art sourcing, ensuring that dynamic visual culture is integrated seamlessly into modern environmental design.
