All auctions / Contemporary Art / Jone Hopper - Femme aux longs cheveux
Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. In the late 80s, he cut his teeth on the streets through an emerging movement of that era, graffiti. He tags his name on the street, on walls and on 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 showcased and not the person. Absent from social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except to a few gallery owners in the confidence. He compares his painting to a Hip Hop track, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, pulling from all art movements, from Modern to Contemporary, including Classical; he acts like a sampler... he samples, cuts, assembles and thus creates new images. - Mixed media: spray paint, pastel and acrylic on canvas - With certificate of authenticity
