Alta Art Production advises, conceives, and delivers major cultural initiatives at the intersection of contemporary art, architecture, and public life.
We partner with institutions, developers, private patrons, and civic stakeholders to define cultural vision and translate it into enduring artistic projects. Our work spans public art master plans, landmark installations, international exhibitions, and cross-disciplinary cultural programming.
We operate as strategic cultural producers, and align artistic excellence with spatial context, institutional objectives, and long-term legacy. We ensure that ambitious artistic ideas are realized with intellectual rigor and public impact, while ensuring financial discipline, and operational precision.
Prior to founding Alta Art Production, Thomas Arnold was formerly the Director of Mary Boone Gallery, one of New York’s most prominent and history-making contemporary art galleries.
During his tenure, he was instrumental in the production of over 150 influential exhibitions across two gallery locations and helped expand a roster of internationally celebrated artists.
Today, he works with a global list of clients, and serves as a trusted partner for ambitious, high-visibility cultural projects.
