'Onposters' are newspapers with drawings of Peter Jeroense. Ellie Uyttenbroek (Exactitudes) Pieter Vos (75b) and fashion designer Peter Jeroense have compiled an exhibition for the launch of the new 'onposters'. During the exhibition, which runs from 21 March through 17 May, the onposters are available exclusively at MAMA.

Ellie Uyttenbroek and Pieter Vos are giving two master classes on the work of Peter Jeroense in April.

‘His modern aesthetic centres
on the contrast between positive
and negative and is almost
always executed in the deepest
black.'
‘I like black because of its
directness and graphic force.
It absorbs most of the 3-Dness.
It's flat and stark. I love it when
the environment seems to blend
in with the body, when the
table becomes part of a Chanel
jacket.'

‘Il aime la puissance d'évocation
d'un noir et blanc pour
exprimer un monde presque
exclusivement masculin aussi
sensuellement provocant que
délicieusement ironique.'

‘J'ai suivi une double formation
de styliste et d'illustrateur
de mode à l'académie d'art
moderne de Rotterdam. Ce qui
me permet d'apprécier le tombé
des vêtements, la qualité des
tissus et leurs effets sur le corps,
plus précisément, la silhouette
qui en découle. Surtout, en
tant que fashion editor au sens
strict, je suis à même d'analyser
la mode et d'en donner une
interprétation au travers de mes
dessins.'

‘One of the reasons why I'm
completely fascinated with
music, magazines and fashion
is the strictly limited time
they're available. With fashion,
one season and it's gone.
Newspapers are the most
exclusive thing in the world -
they only live one day. Very chic.'
