About Tacit



Tacit is an online gallery and art consultancy dedicated to women artists. Tacit was born out of the disparity in the art industry between women and men -- where art by women accounts for a mere 2% of the art sold. Today, we represent over 90 artists worldwide and curate both residential and commercial art collections. Through our direct-to-consumer platform, collectors can browse Tacit's curated selection of artworks ranging from editions to originals. Our art consulting vertical collaborates with interior designers, commercial businesses, and private residential clients to curate art for a variety of spaces -- from condominiums to hotels, restaurants, retail stores, medical clinics, and beyond. You can learn more about us through features in Vogue Living, Forbes, and Elle Decor. Our clients include the AGO, The Drake Hotel, Aritzia, Soho House, ba&sh Paris, and more.
