AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
In the late 80s, he got his start in the streets through an emerging movement at the time, graffiti. He tags his name on the streets, on walls and on trains. Recognized for his characters and aerosol signatures, he created the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti artists. We know little about him as the artist remains faithful to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to stay anonymous, believing that the work should be showcased rather than the person. Nonexistent on social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a real mystery except for a few gallery owners in the confidences. He compares his painting to a hip hop track, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon; he borrows from every current in painting, from Modern to Contemporary through Classic, acting like a sampler... samples, cuts, assembles and thus creates new images.

- Mixed techniques: spray paint, pastel and acrylic on canvas
- With certificate of authenticity
