Description from the seller
Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
In the late 80s, he learns the ropes on the streets through an emerging movement of that era: graffiti. He tags his name on walls and on 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 the work should be highlighted and not the person.
Absent from social networks, 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 hip hop track, drawing on 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... samples, cuts, assembles and thus creates new images.
- Mixed media techniques: aerosol, pastel and acrylic on canvas
- With a certificate of authenticity
