Beyon an Anthology of Visual Encounters - Ana Ruiz Aguirre - Bog

Beyond the Gallery is the second instalment of the Beyond series by Laberinto Press. This multilingual and multi-genre anthology showcases emerging and established talents within the Hispanic Canadian community, featuring a broad range of writings on visual culture by Spanish-speaking writers, artists, and cultural workers. Resisting the sterility of contemporary art's white cube, Beyond the Gallery embraces eclecticism by weaving together a labyrinth of visual experiences through intersecting and diverging pieces of fiction, creative non-fiction, journalism, and academic research. In doing this, we invite readers to see themselves in these pages, to look past exorcizing tropes and beyond the confines of the English-French bilingual model to consider Hispanic Canadian literature as Canadian literature.
