Description from the seller

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. In the late 1980s, he cuts his teeth in the street through an emerging movement at the time: graffiti. He tags his name on walls and trains. Recognized 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 because the artist remains true to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to stay anonymous, believing that the work should be highlighted, not the person. Absent from social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except for a few galleries in the confidence. He compares his painting to a hip-hop piece, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, pulling from all painting currents, from Modern to Contemporary through Classical; he acts like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling and thus creating new images.

- Mixed techniques: aerosol, pastel and acrylic on canvas
- With certificate of authenticity
