James Lee Byars (1932– 1997) was an American visionary conceptual artist whose art defied strict categorization or description. Rooted in philosophy and theology, Byers created a broad range of work from highly extravagant, pageant-like performances to brief minimal one-act plays. The one-act plays consisted of a single poetic idea translated into a brief poetic act. Described by Byars as at once being a prayer, a poem and a play, they were for him mystical expressions of his appreciation for the world. A constant theme in his work (and his life) revolved around the concept of perfection and the word “perfect” which led to his ambiguously celebratory exploration of shapes, numbers and precious materials. Byars has been described as both “half dandified trickster and half minimalist seer.”
