AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. In the late 80s, he learns the ropes on the street through an emerging movement of the era: graffiti. He tags his name on the street, on walls and on trains. Renowned 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 as the artist remains faithful to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to stay anonymous, believing that it is the artwork that should be highlighted and not the person. Nonexistent on social media, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except for 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, acting like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling, and thus creating new images.
