AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
Late in the 1980s, he ‘learned the ropes’ in the streets through an emerging movement of the time, graffiti. He tags his name on streets, walls, and trains. Known for his characters and his aerosol signatures, he creates 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 it is the work that should be highlighted and not the person. Non-existent on social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true 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; he draws from all painting currents, from Modern to Contemporary, passing through Classical, acting like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling, and thus creating new images.
