What do we do?
Hippen Arthouse is rewriting the rules of the art world. We manage and mentor artists with bold career strategies, consult on projects that push boundaries, and stage unexpected installations in boutique hotels, restaurants, bars, and workspaces that refuse to feel ordinary. For collectors, we make buying and commissioning art seamless through the Ujamaa platform—backed by digital COAs and a network of artists ready to bring your vision (and budget) to life.
