Elisabeth Houston Gallery

Founded in 2015 on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, Elizabeth Houston Gallery quickly established itself as a refined space for contemporary art, celebrated for its curatorial precision and intellectual rigor. The gallery represents a tightly focused group of artists working across photography, video, installation, and mixed media, unified by their technical excellence and conceptual richness.

At the heart of the gallery’s mission is an intermedia philosophy—an openness to artists who blur traditional boundaries between genres and disciplines. Whether confronting social issues, psychological landscapes, or formal abstraction, each artist engages with materials in ways that provoke thought and invite dialogue. This emphasis on both craftsmanship and critical inquiry has earned the gallery a strong reputation among collectors, curators, and critics.

Elizabeth Houston Gallery has been the subject of positive coverage in respected publications including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, and The Village Voice. The gallery regularly participates in major art fairs such as AIPAD, PULSE New York, VOLTA, and UNTITLED, bringing its artists to a broader national and international stage.

Elizabeth Houston brings more than a decade of experience to her role as director, having previously led Hous Projects, another respected platform for contemporary art in Manhattan. In addition to running the gallery, she remains deeply engaged in the wider art community, serving as a juror and reviewer for institutions like the International Center of Photography, Photo Lucida, Fotofest, Review Santa Fe, and Critical Mass.

Under her guidance, the gallery continues to serve as a thoughtful and vibrant space for the discovery of innovative voices and compelling visual narratives. Elizabeth Houston Gallery stands as a testament to the enduring power of contemporary art to connect, question, and illuminate.
