Miranda July

"The work of Miranda July-the most impressively cross-disciplinary artist of her generation-is brought into focus in this mid-career retrospective. From her early rarely seen Riot Grrrl-influenced fanzines and performances to a career that has produced seminal films, fiction, sculptures, public art, and even a smartphone app, Miranda July has proven adept at articulating the poignancy and humor of the human plight while also achieving enormous acclaim along the way. This volume offers a close look at July's performance and video projects, award-winning films, digital multimedia, and written works, showcased via photography, stills, and archival ephemera, and narrated by friends, collaborators, curators, assistants, and audience members. It includes behind-the-scenes commentary from such figures as David Byrne, Spike Jonze, Lena Dunham, Carrie Brownstein, and Hans Ulrich Obrist, as well as by July herself, and reveals an intimate perspective on the process, struggles, and grit involved in forging one's own path"--
