All auctions / Contemporary Art / Jone Hopper - Guernica 3.0
- Unique edition 01/01, hand-signed on the back of the artwork - Giclée on canvas mounted on a stretcher and hand-enhanced in the artist's studio - Certificate of authenticity handwritten and signed Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. In the late 1980s, he cut his teeth on the streets within an emerging movement of the time, graffiti. He tags his name on walls, in streets and on trains. Known for his characters and aerosol signatures, he founded the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti artists. We know little about him because the artist remains faithful to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to stay anonymous, believing that the work should be highlighted 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 confidence. He compares his painting to a Hip Hop piece, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, tapping into all art movements, from Modern to Contemporary, including Classical, acting like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling and thus creating new images.
