About the Item

Graffiti artist and painter of Dominican origin, John Andrew Perello alias JonOne, was born in New York in the sixties. Growing up in the Harlem neighborhood, JonOne learned his way by tagging trains and walls in his neighborhood from the age of seventeen. Self-taught, he will then move from the urban medium to the canvas, a medium on which he will be exhibited throughout the world. His works are clearly influenced by his personal experience, marked by hip hop, the street and the metro, as well as by the codes of modern painting. With his innovative style that goes beyond the laws dictated by graffiti, street art and urban culture, he creates “freestyle” works without any limits. The freedom that he advocates above all is his only watchword. It was after settling in Paris in 1987 and having met artists of all stripes (Speedy Graphito, LAII, etc.), that a new conquest began for him: that of the canvas.

Today, the artist's popularity is evident through his various collaborations with brands. JonOne has partnered with major brands such as Lacoste, Hennessy, Air France, Perrier and many more. A regular at fairs, the artist has also exhibited in numerous galleries such as the David Pluskwa gallery, Galerie Bartoux, Galerie Agnès b...
