In 2008, Carrie Scott opened Carrie Scott & Partners, a business that is at once an art consultancy, gallery, and curatorial endeavor.  Carrie is an American/English curator, art historian, TV presenter and art writer living in London. Over the past 16 years she has worked with numerous galleries, businesses, collectors and artists worldwide. While at the University of Washington, Seattle doing a Master’s in Art History, Scott was noted curator of the Hedreen Gallery at Seattle University's Lee Center, and Director of the James Harris Gallery also in Seattle, Washington. While working with James Harris she curated the first solo show of Rashid Johnson’s work outside of Chicago. From there she went on to be Director of Nicole Klagsbrun gallery in New York.

In 2009, when the financial world was in total chaos, Scott launched her own business, at once an art consultancy, gallery and curatorial endeavour that could exist beyond the walls of the traditional gallery and therefore not be beholden to huge overheads and instead look after artists and collectors more unswervingly.

Over the past 11 years, Carrie Scott & Partners has had the privilege of working closely with numerous artists, including Nick KnightJohn PawsonWalter & ZonielMarina ShacolaThe Harold Feinstein Estate, and Federico Pestilli - to help them establish strong and sustained markets.  The business participates in many aspects of this process, from selecting pieces in their archive, assisting and overseeing artwork production, and putting together a considered sales strategy that sees placement of the work in museum and exhibition settings.

Scott also worked side-by-side with visionary photographer Nick Knight for a decade - from 2009 - 2019 - as Director and Curator of his archive as well as Curator of the SHOWstudio Shop, a gallery that exhibited high profile contemporary artists like Douglas Gordon, Raymond Pettibon, Keith Tyson, Terrence Ko, and Anj Smith, alongside the work of dynamic younger artists like Tim A. Shaw, Courtney Andrews, Charlotte Kingsnorth, and Walter & Zoniel.
  
​In 2018, Scott curated the largest independent photography show for the Store x, 180 Strand, A Shade of Pale, exhibiting 470 photographs and most remarkably featuring 320 images from John Pawson’s series Spectrum suspended in space.

Scott has published numerous articles and essays on artists, and appeared as a presenter on  The Art Show, where she interviewed artists in their studios. In 2020, Scott teamed up with David Hill a curator and gallerist in London to present Harold Feinstein’s work, as well as a groundbreaking exhibition on West African Portraiture. In 2021, they will debut new work by Ben Hassett and Rachidi Bissiriou with two solo shows.
