Description from the seller
Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. At the end of the 1980s, he cut his teeth on the street through an emerging movement of the time: graffiti. He tags his name on the streets, on walls and on 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 remains faithful to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to stay anonymous, believing that the work should be highlighted and not the person. Absent from social media, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except for a few gallery owners in the confidence. He compares his painting to a hip-hop piece, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, mining from all pictorial movements, from Modern to Contemporary through Classical; he acts like a sampler… sampling, cutting, assembling, and thus creating new images.
- Mixed media techniques: aerosol, pastel and acrylic on canvas
- With certificate of authenticity
