AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. In the late 1980s, he got his start on the streets through the emerging graffiti movement of the time. He tags his name on streets, walls, and trains. Renowned for his characters and aerosol signatures, he created the TBS (The Brutal Style) collective with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti writers. We know little about him because the artist stays faithful to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that it is the work that should be showcased, not the person. Nonexistent on social media, 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 piece of Hip Hop, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, tapping into all painting currents, from Modern to Contemporary through Classical; he acts like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling and thus creating new images.

- Mixed media: aerosol, pastel and acrylic on canvas
