Jean-François Perroy, better known under the pseudonym Jef Aérosol, was born in 1957. He is a stencil artist from the first wave of urban art in the 80s. In 1982, the city of Tours had the honor of seeing itself endowed with the artist's first stencil.
Underlined by a red arrow, the artist's signature, the portraits of personalities such as Elvis Presley, Gandhi, Basquiat, or Lennon as well as the silhouettes of anonymous street people, appear through a two-tone palette on the walls of the cities.
