Kansas City based artist Jason Dixon will attempt to complete the most performance art pieces ever enacted by a single person in a single day. Clad in competitive swimming gear and acting through his alter ego, Tito, Dixon plans to re-create a selection of seminal performance art works of the past, from Bruce Nauman’s “Bouncing in Corner” to Vito Acconci’s “Turn On,” and Theme Song,” to Paul McCarthy’s “White Line.” This unique 24-hour event will take place at CSF’s Urban Culture Project venue, la Esquina, 1000 West 25th Street, Kansas City, MO from noon on May 8 to noon on May 9.
In the spirit of competition, Dixon also hopes to earn recognition in the Guinness Book of World Records. Though he acknowledges that many performances have extended longer than 24 hours, his feat will be to complete as many performances with “provenance” as possible within a 24-hour time limit.
