Jonone (1963) - Rough, Rugged and Wild

JonOne – Rough, Rugged and Wild – 2026 Original silkscreen by JonOne, produced in 2 color passes with ink enriched with real gold powder, on 250 g Keaykolour paper. Format 50 × 70 cm. Limited edition to only 60 copies, numbered and hand-signed by the artist. With Rough, Rugged and Wild, JonOne delivers a particularly powerful composition, dominated by a spectacular contrast between the deep black of the background and the intensity of the gold ink. The gestures cross, overlap, and fill the entire surface, in this free and energetic handwriting that has become immediately recognizable. The presence of real gold powder in the ink gives this edition a special character: depending on light and viewing angle, the gold traces reveal different nuances and enhance the depth of the composition. A key figure on the international graffiti scene, JonOne draws here directly on the energy of New York writing that has accompanied his work since his beginnings. The title Rough, Rugged and Wild perfectly translates this aesthetic: raw, spontaneous, and decidedly urban. With its particularly limited edition of 60 copies, its large format of 50 × 70 cm, and the use of gold powder, this silkscreen constitutes a very fine edition of JonOne, as visually strong as it is representative of his artistic universe. Artwork in perfect condition, never framed, stored flat. We ensure meticulous packaging, international tracking, insurance, and express shipping for all our deliveries. The numbering may differ from the photos. Biography: JonOne (French-American, born 1963 in New York), famous for his graffiti-influenced works, was born in Harlem, where the art of colorful and elaborate graffiti evolves. He began creating, with a childhood friend, graffiti of his name at the age of 17. In 1984, he founded the Graffiti 156 All Starz collective to bring together graffiti artists' passion. After moving to Paris in 1987, he began working as a canvas painter in a studio. He quickly made a name for himself in Parisian art circles with his canvas works, was exhibited in 1990 at Gallery 45 in Berlin and participated in the Graffiti Paris exhibition, where his work is shown permanently. His works are among the highest-auctioned in the graffiti world.
