Miranda July: A Woman’s Quest for Freedom
@ Illinois Tech - Hermann Hall
3241 S Federal St, Chicago, IL 60616
Opening Saturday, May 18th, from 5PM - 6PM
Renowned multi-hyphenated artist and Chicago Humanities favorite, Miranda July has gained a cult following throughout her award-winning career as a filmmaker (Me and You and Everyone We Know, Kajillionaire), author (No One Belongs Here More Than You), and visual artist. Her perfect comic timing, unabashed curiosity about human intimacy, and palpable delight in pushing boundaries shine in her latest novel, All Fours: A Novel. Part absurd entertainment, part tender reinvention of the sexual, romantic, and domestic life, the story follows one woman’s quest for a new kind of freedom in her drive cross-country from LA to NY. One of the most inspiring creative artists of our time, July joins Chicago author Jessamine Chan for an afternoon on storytelling, creativity and finding a new life.
A book signing will follow this program.
