All auctions / Contemporary Art / Jone Hopper - Muse à l’enfant
- Unique edition 01/01 hand-signed on the back of the artwork - Giclée on canvas mounted on a frame and hand-enhanced in the artist's studio - Certificate of authenticity hand-signed Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. In the late 80s, he honed his craft on the street through an emerging movement of the time, graffiti. He tags his name on streets, walls, and trains. Recognized for his characters and aerosol signatures, he founded the TBS (The Brutal Style) collective with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti artists. We know little about him, because the artist stays true to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that it is the artwork that should be highlighted and not the person. Absent from social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except for a few gallery owners in the confidences. He compares his painting to a Hip Hop track, borrowing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol, or even Bacon; he draws from all art movements, from Modern to Contemporary, including Classical, acting like a sampler... he samples, cuts, assembles and thus creates new images.
