AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
In the late 1980s, he takes his first steps on the streets through an emerging movement of the time: graffiti. He tags his name on walls and trains. Recognized for his characters and his aerosol signatures, he creates 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 spirit of graffiti and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that the work should be the focus and not the individual. Nonexistent on social media, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except for a few gallery owners in the confidence. He compares his painting to a Hip Hop track, borrowing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, drawing from all painting currents—from Modern to Contemporary, including the Classic—and he acts like a sampler... he samples, cuts, assembles, and thus creates new images.
