Jone Hopper - Femme sur une chaise

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
In the late 1980s, he made his "apprenticeship" on the streets through an emerging movement of that era, graffiti. He tags his name on the street, on walls and on 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 writers. We know little about him as the artist remains faithful to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to stay anonymous, believing that it is the work that should be highlighted and not the figure. 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 hip-hop piece, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, dipped into all pictorial currents, from Modern to Contemporary through Classic; he acts like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling and thus creating new images.
