Welcome to DVV! We are so glad you’re here…
Devon Vander Voort is a private art advisory firm. Founded in 2023 by Devon Vander Voort, we work with collectors helping them build and maintain their fine art collections.
We guide our clients according to their primary collecting intentions: whether building an investment portfolio, acquiring works for new homes, or deepening their role as patrons and supporters of the arts. Our advisory serves both private collectors and corporate clients with discretion and curatorial precision.
Our team at DVV is currently woman-run and gen-z founded, energetically focused on working with our clients to find them pieces that fit within their collecting while focusing on the future of the arts.
We work with clients domestically and internationally.

TESTIMONIALS
I met Devon at Art Basel through a colleague. Having very little knowledge of the art world, she was so willing to provide knowledge and insight of not only the exhibits we visited but of current trends and future outlook as well. It has been an incredible and fun experience learning from her. With their guidance, I’ve been able to better develop my preferences in art. She’s done a great job at curating exceptional pieces tailored to my interests and I would recommend their services to anyone.
