Description from the seller

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
Towards the end of the 1980s, he earned his stripes on the street through an emerging movement at the time: graffiti. He tags his name on walls and on trains. Known for his characters and his aerosol signatures, he created the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti writers. We know little about him because the artist stays true to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that the work should be showcased and not the person. Absent from social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a real mystery except for a few gallery owners who know him in confidence. He compares his painting to a Hip Hop track, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, pulling from all artistic currents, from Modern to Contemporary through Classic, he acts like a sampler… he samples, cuts, assembles and thus creates new images.

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