  • Tim Youd Retypes William Gass's the Tunnel
    Press contact: Eddie Silva 314.446.7496 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Artist Tim Youd retypes St. Louis author William Gass’s The Tunnel on live video stream Tim Youd at the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis in 2018. April 27, 2020 (St. Louis, MO) - The Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis (CAM), with Cristin Tierney Gallery, announces a live-stream, remote durational performance by Tim Youd, who will retype William Gass’s epic novel, The Tunnel, from the artist’s garage in his Los Angeles home, beginning Friday, May 1, 2020, at 11:00 am CST. Youd expects to complete the 650-page novel in 31 days, ending on May 31, his longest retyping performance to date. Youd refers to Gass’s work as a “densely postmodern” novel about becoming increasingly trapped in one’s own circumstances and in one’s own mind.” For Youd, his performative act will be akin to “tunneling out of the quarantine.” Viewers may follow Tim Youd: The Tunnel Retyped by visiting tunnelretyped.com, where they may link to the live YouTube video stream, from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm CST each day. The artist will be visited by a guest close to the project on Instagram Live each Friday at 1:00 pm, beginning with Lisa Melandri, CAM Executive Director, on May 1. Each subsequent Friday Youd will speak with Misa Jeffereis, assistant curator at CAM; Allison Unruh, Brooklyn-based independent curator and former associate curator of the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum; and Cristin Tierney, director of her eponymously named New York City gallery, which represents Youd.

  • About the University of Mississippi
    About UM - History - University Buildings | Spring 2019-20 About the University of Mississippi Overview Mission Administration Board Accreditation EEO History Buildings Oxford Campus and University Buildings Locale Situated on rolling land at an altitude of 500 feet, the university’s Oxford campus is noted for its natural beauty. With its elms, oaks, magnolias, poplars, redbuds, and dogwoods, the campus has the appearance of a well-kept park. Originally the campus was approximately one-square-mile in area. Over the years it has expanded to more than 2,500 acres in total. The main campus and the land to the south across Highway 6 comprise approximately 1,200 acres. An additional 1,300 acres were added when land was acquired for the airport, golf course, Biological Field Station, and former mall. The Buildings Most of the university buildings are Georgian, modified Georgian, or contemporary in architectural design. Two of the three surviving antebellum buildings are Greek Revival in design. The buildings are listed in the chronological order of their construction. 19th Century The Lyceum Begun July 14, 1846, and completed in 1848, the Lyceum is of stately Ionic Greek Revival design and bricks thought to have been made from clay at the site. Its architect was William Nichols. The building was lengthened in 1858, two flanking wings added in 1903, and the west facade in 1923. The entire building was renovated from 1998-2000. The sole survivor of the five original buildings, it has remained the principal administration building. The Lyceum bell is believed to be the oldest college bell in America.
