Artist Biography
Jean-François Perroy (Jef Aérosol): Pioneer of French Stencil Graffiti
Jean-François Perroy, better known as jef aérosol, stands as a pivotal figure in the history of French urban art and graffiti culture. Born in Nantes in 1957, he adopted the pseudonym “jef aérosol” – a moniker that instantly cemented his place within the burgeoning movement of the early 1980s. Since then, he has relentlessly pursued his artistic vision on city walls across France and internationally, establishing himself as a respected voice amongst contemporaries like Blek le Rat and Speedy Graphito.- Early Influences & Formation: Perroy’s artistic journey began in Nantes, where he honed his skills amidst the vibrant graffiti scene of the time. The formative years were marked by immersion in the raw energy of stencil art – a technique that prioritizes direct application onto surfaces using spray paint through stencils, offering unparalleled control over imagery and dissemination.
- The Bondi Meeting & Founding Momentum: A defining moment arrived in 1985 at the inaugural graffiti gathering in Bondy, organized by VLPs. This event served as a catalyst for establishing connections with fellow artists like Speedy Graphito, Kim Prisu Miss Tic, and Sp 38 – individuals who collectively propelled the movement forward. It was during this period that jef aérosol’s reputation began to grow.
- Notable Collaborations & Artistic Style: Perroy's work consistently explores themes of social commentary and visual experimentation. He has collaborated extensively with other artists, notably Blek le Rat, contributing to a collective aesthetic characterized by bold colors, striking compositions, and powerful symbolism. His distinctive style leans heavily on stencil printing, utilizing intricate designs and layering techniques to create impactful murals.
Recognition & Artistic Output: Books and Exhibitions
Perroy’s artistic endeavors extend beyond street art; he has achieved considerable success as a published author. Notably, he spearheaded the creation of “Vite fait, bien fait,” a seminal book documenting the evolution of stencil art, alongside Agnès B., in 1986 – an ambitious project that captured the spirit of the movement’s genesis. Subsequent books include "Risques de rêves," "Parcours fléché," and numerous exhibition catalogs showcasing his diverse artistic explorations.- “Vite fait, bien fait” (1986): This publication served as a cornerstone in establishing jef aérosol’s contribution to documenting the burgeoning stencil art movement.
- “Risques de rêves” (2011 & 2012): Exploring themes of vulnerability and aspiration, this book delves into Perroy's artistic process and conceptual framework.
- “Parcours fléché” (2013): This catalog chronicles his career trajectory and highlights key exhibitions showcasing his evolving artistic style.
Contemporary Significance & Legacy

He represents a crucial link between early experimental urban expression and the broader dialogue surrounding public art and visual culture. His unwavering commitment to stencil printing as a medium—a technique that continues to inspire artists globally—solidifies his position as an enduring icon within the history of contemporary art.
