AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. Towards the end of the 1980s, he cuts his teeth in the streets through an emerging movement at 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 committed graffiti artists. We know little about him as the artist stays faithful to the graffiti spirit and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that it is the artwork that should be highlighted and not the figure. Nonexistent on social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except to a few gallery owners in the know. He compares his painting to a hip-hop track, borrowing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon; he draws from all art movements, from Modern to Contemporary, passing through Classical—he acts like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling and thus creating new images.
