AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. In the late 1980s, he learns on the streets through an emerging movement of the time: graffiti. He tags his name on the street, on walls and on trains. Known for his characters and aerosol signatures, he creates the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other engaged graffiti artists. We know little about him as the artist stays faithful to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that it is the artwork that should be highlighted and not the persona. Non-existent on social media, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a genuine mystery except for a few gallery owners in the know. He compares his painting to a piece of Hip Hop, borrowing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, drawing from all artistic currents, from Modern to Contemporary and through Classical; he acts like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling and thus creating new images.
- Technique: graphite on 250g fine-grain paper
- With certificate of authenticity
