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.
