Classical meets modern
Opus 90" is the tag of a Berlin-based graffiti artist known for painting "oldschool" b-boy and hip-hop characters. The name "Opus 90" refers to the artist's focus on the aesthetic and culture of 1990s hip-hop and graffiti, with "90" signifying that era.
Music
Term Shon, born in Seoul, South Korea, and raised in West Berlin, began playing the piano at the age of four, studying primarily with his mother, pianist Heesook Ahn, Professor Klaus Bäßler (Hans Eisler Academy of Music in Berlin), and the renowned piano teacher Hans Peter Leygraf. After a break of approximately 20 years, he resumed playing the piano during the coronavirus pandemic in 2021.
Graffiti
Term Shon/OPUS 90 belongs to the second generation of graffiti pioneers in Berlin. He was active from 1986 to the mid-1990s. Instead of lettering, his focus was on hip hop B-boy characters.
After a break of about 30 years, he resumed B-boy painting during the Corona period, where he had left off, without any outside influences. Today, as OPUS 90, he is one of the best old-school B-boy character painters of our time. One of the last who can paint faithfully and stylistically authentically.
