Carmichael Gallery of Contemporary Art exhibits international, emerging artists with backgrounds in street art, illustration, outsider art, and design. With an emphasis on creating an environment for contemporary artists to experiment and exhibit new directions of their work, Carmichael Gallery provides many of their artists their first U.S. group and solo exhibitions, quickly establishing artist growth and recognition in a global art marketplace and introducing eclectic cultural styles to collectors and audiences.

After moving to Los Angeles in September 2006, husband and wife duo Seth and Elisa Carmichael began to curate shows in various locations around the city, frequently converting raw retail spaces, high-end luxury lofts, and other non-traditional spaces into alternative galleries. In August 2007, the co-curators secured a permanent space on La Brea Avenue in West Hollywood, CA, founding Carmichael Gallery of Contemporary Art. The Carmichaels bring this raw, spontaneous aesthetic of project spaces to their gallery, allowing for artist collaboration and community.
