AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
In the late 1980s, he learned the trade 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 aerosol signatures, he created 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 artwork that should be highlighted, not the person.
Absent from social media, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except for a few gallery owners in the know. He compares his painting to a hip hop track, draws from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, samples from all painting currents, from Modern to Contemporary, passing through Classic; he acts like a sampler—samples, cuts, assembles, and thus creates new images.
- Mixed media: aerosol, pastel and acrylic on canvas
- With certificate of authenticity
