Et Alors? Magazine 3

Et Alors? Magazine is an ongoing research project, focused on documenting contemporary queer art and LGBT creativity, solely written and designed by Fleur Pierets & Julian P. Boom. Married and female. By using the conventional magazine format as a creative platform to publish in-depth interviews and positive portraits on musicians, visual artists, writers and performers, they challenge and expand the mainstream understandings on the specific niche of queer art. The project both highlights contemporary artists and the many creative individuals who have put their unique stamp on art history. Et Alors? Magazine is a time document that continually captures the zeitgeist of a changing world, supporting the creation, the research and the development of projects that explore diversity, gender, feminism and queer topics on an optimistic, cultural, artistic and intellectual level.

THE<br />

ART<br />

OF<br />

BEING<br />

HOPELEZZ<br />

INTERVIEW FLEUR PIERETS<br />

If you’re lucky you can bump into them when in<br />

Amsterdam. Accompanied by a human cluster of<br />

flies, they picturesquely attract and they puzzle.<br />

With their expression of beatific good humour<br />

and their gaily coloured dresses, people are vying<br />

for their attention. With pleasurable interest they<br />

pose with them whose age range from 8 to 88 and<br />

go from place to place where their fancy takes<br />

them.<br />

One member of the gang – intelligent, big hair, big<br />

ass and a beard – paved the way for this radiant<br />

group of drag queens and –kings and brought to<br />

the surface all the things that were boiling inside.<br />

With pleasurable interest, Richard Keldoulis tells<br />

us about becoming Jennifer Hopelezz, about his<br />

role in the Amsterdam gay scene and the mere<br />

idea of creating a family.
