GIRLCORE

I'm a proud member of Girlcore, which is basically a bunch of girls from the worlds of media, music, fashion and performance art helping each other out with different projects. There is a blog, a newsletter and every last Thursday of the month a party, which for the 3rd time in a row was listed in Time Out as the best party in all of London.

JR: THE CONTROVERSY

A bit of media attention is nice but the current amount of media interest is pretty overwhelming. The city council has come to the conclusion that JR's photos are illegal advertising. We were told to remove the posters within 2 weeks or pay a 15.000 Euro fine! A press release was written, which was picked up by all papers (Volkskrant, NRC, Parool, AD, Amsterdam Weekly and De Standaard) and other media (NOS op 3, RTV NH, AT5) and days later the debate about JR's work and art in the public domain is gaining momentum.
"This controversy is brought to you by JR, Emile, Marco and Anneloes."

MEDIA INTEREST IN JR EXHIBITION KEEPS GROWING

There has been plenty of media attention for the JR exhibition. And there seems no end in sight. US Magazine Clear will do a piece on JR, there was a mention in Linda Magazine, Viva and Miss van Gaalen was also interviewed for a filmed segment by FunX.
