AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. In the late 1980s, he began his “lessons” on the street through an emerging movement at the time: graffiti. He tags his name on walls and trains. Known for his characters and his aerosol signatures, he created the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti artists. We know little about him because the artist stays true to the spirit of graffiti and desires to remain anonymous, believing that the work should be showcased rather than the persona. Nonexistent on social media, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a real mystery except for a few gallery owners who know him in confidence. He compares his painting to a hip‑hop track, borrowing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, drawing from all pictorial currents—from Modern to Contemporary, through Classic. He acts like a sampler... he samples, cuts, assembles and thus creates new images.
