All auctions / Contemporary Art / Jone Hopper - Judith et Holopherne
Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. In the late 1980s, he took his first steps on the street through an emerging movement at the time: graffiti. He tags his name on walls and trains. Known for his characters and aerosol signatures, he formed the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti artists. We know little about him as the artist remains faithful to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to stay anonymous, believing that it is the work that should be showcased, not the person. Nonexistent on social networks, 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 piece of Hip Hop, drawing inspiration from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol, or even Bacon; he dips into all painting currents, from Modern to Contemporary, including Classical, acting like a sampler… sampling, cutting, assembling, and thus creating new images. - Mixed media: aerosol, pastel and acrylic on canvas - With certificate of authenticity - Canvas mounted on a wooden frame without a traditional caisse américaine
