Generation Jones: A Yearbook
A solo exhibition of photographs from 1971 -1979 by Jeremiah Dine

Jeremiah Dine first learned basic photography in 1971 at a summer day camp in Putney Vermont. He was twelve years old, and soon was photographing all of the people around him, inadvertently documenting a micro-generation know as Generation Jones.* These portraits, captured during his teenage years, spanned from seventh grade through high school, a period of rapid change for anyone, and a particularly tumultuous era for individuals growing up in the 1970s.

“These include family, friends, schoolmates, girlfriends, enemies, nerds, jocks, hippies, stoners, punks, proto-punks, weirdos, people who are no longer with us, people I don’t remember, people I loved, people I still love. Everybody was young and beautiful, and as members of the yet unnamed Generation Jones, we had an innate pessimism based on our experience growing in in the Sixties, with its social upheaval, political unrest and general air of cynicism. We were carefree, ignored by our parents and blissfully androgynous.” –Jeremiah Dine

A zine, Generation Jones: A Yearbook, published by ROMAN NVMERALS (Catskill NY), will be available, with a book signing scheduled for Sunday, June 28.

*Generation Jones is the generation or social cohort between the baby boomers and Generation X. The term was coined in 1999 by American cultural commentator Jonathan Pontell, who has argued that the term refers to a full distinct generation born from 1954 to 1965. Williams, Jeffrey J.

Playground
A solo exhibition of works by Carin Kulb Dangot

Peep Space is pleased to present Playground, the inaugural exhibition for Peep’s newly launched Back Room, an experimental project space dedicated to site-responsive installations.

Playground is a tactile intimate world by Carin Kulb Dangot, where paint behaves in unexpected ways. Installed on a series of swings suspended from the ceiling in Peep Space’s Back Room, Dangot’s visceral sculptures offer moments of lightness that still carry the weight of material and process. Made entirely of acrylic paint, they sit within a playfully constructed environment, echoing the improvisational nature of the work. Here, paint becomes the subject rather than the surface, taking on roles beyond color or image.
