AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
At the end of the 1980s, he learns his trade on the streets through an emerging movement of the time, graffiti. He tags his name on streets, walls and trains. Known for his characters and aerosol signatures, he creates the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti writers. We know little about him because the artist stays faithful to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that it is the artwork that should be highlighted and not the person. Nonexistent on social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except for a few gallery owners in the confidences. He compares his painting to a piece of Hip Hop, drawing on Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, pulling from all painting currents, from Modern to Contemporary and including Classic; he acts like a sampler... he samples, cuts, assembles and thus creates new images.
- Mixed media: aerosol, pastel and acrylic on canvas
- With certificate of authenticity
- Canvas mounted on a wooden stretcher frame without a traditional 'caisse américaine'
