AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.

In the late 1980s, he cut his teeth on the street through an emerging movement at the time, graffiti. He tags his name on the street, on walls and on trains. Known 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 desires to remain anonymous, believing that it is the work that must be showcased and not the person.

Nonexistent on social media, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except for a few gallerists 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, pulling from all pictorial currents, from Modern to Contemporary through Classical; he acts like a sampler… he samples, cuts, assembles and thus creates new images.

- Mixed media: aerosol, pastel and acrylic on canvas
- With certificate of authenticity
- Canvas mounted on a wooden frame without a float frame
