AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
In the late 1980s, he learned the ropes on the street through the emerging graffiti movement of the time. He tags his name on the streets, on walls, and on trains. Known for his characters and aerosol signatures, he formed the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti writers. 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. 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, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol, or even Bacon; he samples from all art movements, from Modern to Contemporary, passing through Classical. He acts like a sampler—samples, cuts, assembles, and thus creates new images.

- Mixed media: spray paint, pastel and acrylic on canvas
- With certificate of authenticity
