Description from the seller
Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
At the end of the 1980s, he learns the ropes on the street through an emerging movement at that time: graffiti. He tags his name on walls and on trains. Known 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 because the artist stays true to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that the work should be showcased, not the personality. Absent from social media, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except for a few gallerists 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; he nicks from all art movements, from Modern to Contemporary through Classical, acting like a sampler—sampling, cutting, assembling, and thus creating new images.
- Mixed media: spray paint, pastel, and acrylic on canvas
- With certificate of authenticity
