Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
In the late 80s, he cut his teeth on the street through an emerging movement of the time: graffiti. He tags his name on walls and on trains. Recognized for his characters and his aerosol signatures, he founded the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti artists. We know little about him because the artist stays true to the graffiti spirit and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that the work should be showcased rather than the figure. Non-existent on social media, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a real mystery except to a few gallery owners in confidence. He compares his painting to a piece of Hip Hop, drawing on Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, drawing from all pictorial currents, from Modern to Contemporary while passing through the Classical; he acts like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling, and thus creating new images.
