From the subway tunnels of Harlem to the walls of Paris, JonOne has always painted like a spark waiting to ignite. In Fireworks, the New York-born artist unleashes a new explosion of color, gesture, and rhythm—merging his graffiti roots with the raw intensity of abstract expressionism.
This catalogue documents the 2015 solo exhibition at agnès b.’s Galerie du Jour. Featuring a striking selection of large-scale canvases, graphic drawings, and vibrant sculptural forms, Fireworks captures the energy of a body in motion—a visual beat born from the street but pulsing on gallery walls.
More than a retrospective, Fireworks is a manifesto. A celebration of light, movement, and creative urgency. A reminder that writing can transcend language, becoming pure visual rhythm.
With texts in French and English and high-quality reproductions of JonOne’s dynamic work, this book invites readers into the electric world of one of contemporary art’s most iconic voices.
