PEG gallery opens with kaupapa of care and commitment
Peggy Robinson has opened a new contemporary art gallery called PEG on Cuba Street in Wellington, New Zealand. The gallery occupies a historic 1907 industrial building that was originally a mattress factory. Robinson, who has nearly a decade of experience in the arts, founded PEG with a kaupapa (philosophy) centered on presence, care, and deep commitment to artists. The inaugural exhibition features Reece King's show 'Halfway to the Splits', which explores repetition, labour, and process-based poetics developed during his fellowship. PEG's exhibitions run for four to five weeks, longer than the typical 3½ weeks, to allow for deeper engagement.
