Famous Accountants is a contemporary art gallery located in the Bushwick neighborhood of Brooklyn. It was founded in October 2009 by artists Kevin Regan and Ellen Letcher.

The gallery is located in the basement of a building that was owned for nearly 15 years by performance artist Genesis P-Orridge. [1] In a profile in the New York Times Ms. P-Orridge claimed that she was "forced out [of the neighborhood] by the hipsters" and that she would relocated to the [Lower East Side].[2]

Along with other galleries (names and links here), Famous Accountants is part of a concentration of art spaces that are bushwick culture.
