Miranda July appears at Powell's on Burnside at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 22.
A long time ago, Miranda July was a Portland performance artist. At its core her work is story telling. She spent over a year in her studio in the Fez building on Burnside downstairs from the ballet studio writing what was to become her film.
Big Miss Moviola, media performances, film acting, writing, directing, social practice art, interactive art websites, a mobile app.
Speed up to now. She reads from her first novel First Bad Man tonight. Should be good.
Some of the audience are meeting up at the Ace before. At Powell's 3rd floor. www.powells.com. 10th and W Burnside 7:30PM Free
