Spacex was a contemporary art organisation, located in Exeter, between 1974 and 2017.[1] It was founded in 1974 by John Butler as an artist co-operative.[2] Its programme spanned installations, performance, photography, sculpture, painting, film and video. Its learning programme focused on helping visitors of all ages to explore and engage with contemporary art.

Spacex ceased activity at the end of 2017 with the formal closure of the charity.[3]
