Miranda July to possibly be at NEXUS this Thursday

Cute, weird hipster icon/universal girl crush Miranda July will be showing a video at NEXUS/foundation's "SUPERGIRL!" exhibit, a group show that opens this Thu., Dec. 10 from 6 to 9 p.m. She's best known for her film Me, You and Everyone We Know (see a creepy, hilarious clip of it above), but she's also kinda a Renaissance woman ''she wrote the short story collection No One Belongs Here More Than You, is an actress (she starred in her own film), and has exhibited video and installation pieces in several galleries. At NEXUS (1400 N. American St., 215-684-1946), she'll be tackling the topic of female superheroes in a video about "a 12-year-old Olympic swimmer and her mother (both played by July) who speak to the public about going for the gold." Fingers crossed that she'll be there for the wine and cheese on opening night.
