AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
Towards the late 1980s, he made his 'apprenticeship' on the streets through an emerging movement at the time, graffiti. He tags his name on the streets, on walls and on trains. Known for his characters and aerosol signatures, he founded the TBS collective (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. Nonexistent on social media, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except to a few galleries in confidence. He compares his painting to a piece of Hip Hop, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, pulling from all art movements, from Modern to Contemporary and including the Classical; he acts like a sampler… samples, cuts, assembles and thus creates new images.

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