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 streets through an emerging movement at the time: graffiti. He tags his name on streets, walls, and trains. Known for his characters and his aerosol signatures, he created the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti artists. We know little about him because the artist stays faithful to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that it is the work that should be highlighted, not the person. Nonexistent on 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, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon; he samples from all art currents, from Modern to Contemporary, through Classical, acting like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling, and thus creating new images.
