Peep Space is pleased to present Grayson Cox: Nepo Maybe, a group exhibition curated by artist Grayson Cox. The exhibition explores the tension between earned opportunity and social proximity—what some might call nepotism—and reimagines it as a gesture of care, reciprocity, and magnetism.

Informed by Lewis Hyde’s notion of the “gift community,” the show proposes a space where the circulation of meaningful objects becomes a form of generosity and mutual recognition. Cox invites artists with whom he has recently shared moments of connection—some deep, others fleeting—to contribute artwork that carries personal meaning. These offerings may be small, poetic, transactional, or experiential. Some are for sale, some are for giving, and others are simply to be shown.

“Art must have generosity built in if it is to survive as useful,” Cox states. In that spirit, Nepo Maybe challenges the conventional dynamics of access and opportunity in the art world by framing friendship and shared curiosity as valid, even necessary, conditions for exhibition-making.

The show is as much about objects as it is about the magnetic forces that bring people together—the eros between artists, between object and viewer, and between communities in need of new forms of gathering. The opening will function as a meeting ground for storytelling, exchange, and quiet witnessing.

Thank you to all the artists and curators who submitted proposals to the 2021 Spring Open Call

We are thrilled to officially announce the selected proposals from the Spring 2021 open call:

Exhibition 1: March 12-26, 2021 – A solo exhibition featuring a collaged drawing installation, by Queens, NY artist Beth Livensperger

Exhibition 2: April 9-23, 2021 – A two-person exhibition of paintings by Debbi Kenote and sculpture by Alyssa McClenaghan, both from New York

Additional selection for 2022: We were also so taken by the work of Philadelphia artist Lauren Pakradooni, combining printmaking and sculptural techniques, that we invited her for a solo exhibition to be exhibited in January 2022.

PeepSpace in Tarrytown, NY is committed to maintaining low & no fee opportunities for emerging and established artists. However, as an artist-run space, we humbly request your donations. 

As artists and curators you are aware that the standard fees for open calls typically range from $10-$50. PeepSpace needs your support to continue to offer opportunities for artists for whom fees may be a hindrance.

As you consider the open call, and if you have the means, please consider including a donation.  A donation of whatever you can afford would make a difference in the success of our gallery and in support of our programming.  No donation is too small.
