Description from the seller
Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. In the late 80s, he learned the ropes 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 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 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 real mystery except for a few gallery owners in the confidence. He compares his painting to a piece of Hip Hop, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, tapping into all painting currents, from Modern to Contemporary while passing through Classical; he acts like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling and thus creating new images.
- Mixed media: spray paint, pastels and acrylic on canvas
- With a certificate of authenticity
- Canvas mounted on a wooden frame without a cradle
