Private art dealer settles for only the best.
Never underestimate the power of art.

Fine art dealer and consultant Taba Dale understands how a work of art can change a room, reflect a personality, lift a mood and infuse incalculable beauty in a living or work space.

Her decades of experience and impeccable reputation have earned her prestigious clientele from Arizona to New York and Washington, D.C.

“Art is my core passion. It’s like oxygen to me, and I can’t live without it,” said Dale, a private art dealer who handles contemporary, blue chip and secondary market works.

“I show Wolf Kahn, Herb Jackson and John Van Alstine exclusively in Arizona — all top-tier, living artists who have extensive museum representation.”

“I take a very consultative approach, visit your space or work from architectural plans, and use my vast network to find works that meet your criteria,” said Dale.

She also provides in-home consulting services to improve the arrangement of existing collections and offer ideas to enhance the beauty of a home or office.

Dale will evaluate a work’s need for restoration, provide museum-conservation framing with the finest materials and craftsmanship, and oversee framing and installation. She also will offer advice about cataloging collections for insurance or legacy purposes.

Her considerable contacts give her unique access to the New York art world. Upon request, she will accompany clients on private art tours where they will be invited into the inner sanctum of the most revered g.alleries and be treated like royalty. To reach Taba Dale, call 480-219-0280
