Jone Hopper - Muse au vase dans son salon

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. Towards the late 1980s, he did his “apprenticeships” on the street through an emerging movement at the time: graffiti. He tags his name on the street, on walls and on trains. Recognized for his characters and his aerosol signatures, he created the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other dedicated graffiti writers. 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 come to the forefront and not the character. Absent from social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a real mystery except for a few gallery owners in the know. He compares his painting to a piece of Hip Hop, drawing inspiration from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon; he plucks from all art movements, from Modern to Contemporary through to Classical, acting like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling to create new images.
