Jone Hopper - Femme sur une chaise

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
In the late 1980s, he learns his craft on the street through the emerging graffiti movement of the time. He tags his name on walls and 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 writers. We know little about him because 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 person. Unseen on social media, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except to a few gallery owners who know him. He compares his painting to a hip hop piece, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol, or even Bacon; he borrows from all art movements, from Modern to Contemporary, through Classical, acting like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling, and thus creating new images.
