The Beyond Within expands on an exhibition by the same title. The show includes
installation works by Annie MacDonell and collaboratively-produced videos by Annie
MacDonell and Maïder Fortuné. The works in the exhibition – mounted at The Robert
McLaughlin Gallery, SFU Galleries, MacKenzie Art Gallery, Kitchener-Waterloo Art
Gallery, and Illingworth Kerr Gallery between 2022 and 2023 – mark a significant
turning point both artists’ careers, and the beginning of a collaborative body of
research exploring the relationship between art and life, the permeability of the self,
and the potentials and limitations of artistic and conceptual freedom under late
capitalism.
Designed by Cecilia Berkovic, the book includes images, film scripts, as well as
essays by curators and collaborators including Crystal Mowry, Clara Schulmann, Leila
Timmins, and Yan Wu, and interviews with Vincent Broqua, Ian Murray, Mathilde
Girard and Cyril Neyrat. It acts not only as a document of the exhibition, but an
extension of the artworks and ideas within.
